SYMPTOMS

After a user's unique key values are updated, the user receives the following error message when the user tries to log on to a Commerce Server 2007 site:

[COMException (0xc1004043): A duplicate value for unique key member GeneralInfo.email_address found while building indices for profile UserObject. Check the underlying store for uniqueness of the property.]

This problem occurs when the user profile cache has not expired on other Web servers or processes. Sometimes, a user cannot log on to a Commerce Server 2007 site until the profile cache entries expire on all Web servers.
