  Hi,

  We had our User Profile Synchronization service in stopped state for quite some time due to our SQL server having "Named Instance". Since RTM version had this compatibility issue, I patched my farm with SP2 + FEB 2014 CU.

  Now the "User Profile Synchronization Service" is running (I started it and now it was a success). However when I start the Profile sync job (either INC or FULL), it fails. This is the error I get:

  The Execute method of job definition Microsoft.Office.Server.UserProfiles.UserProfileImportJob (ID c10650ed-0935-47a5-b3ce-a307c576ad9a) threw an exception. More information is included below.
  
  Operation is not valid due to the current state of the object.

  Here are the observations:

  - User Profile Synchronization Service - Running

  - User Profile Service - Running

  - Both FIMS - Running

  - On User Profile Service Application page, I see "User Profile Sync is not currently provisioned."

  - If I go in for "Configure Sync Connections" I see --- The query returns nothing. 

  - On clicking "Create new connection" I get this error:

  

  What could be wrong now?
