Web Adapter Installation Error/Problem

[Anonymous User]

Successfully installed ArcGIS Server 10.1 SP1 on a new server. No previous version of AGS/Esri. Created a new site and am able to successfully log into the new site. However upon installing the Web Adaptor and when navigating to http://localhost/arcgis/webadaptor I receive the following error:

The profile for the user is a temporary profile.

I have used the web adapter and did not have a problem.

You might have already seen this but it seems to have a number of suggestions:

What's your system: is it a Citrix?

Hello.

I have read this thread very late...  sorry.

I have the same problem below and we are using Citrix. Do You have some recommendation?

For anyone that comes across this thread first (like I did), check out Re: WebAdaptor Error profile for the user is temporary profile     Kenneth's suggestion fixed 10.3.1 for me.
