ADSelfService My Info quick successive update gets the hump

Fast successive updates to My Info in the Self Service Portal causes problems.

Firstly, a blank white screen.

Then trying to load the base URL again, you get the following warning:

"Update your profile details.
You have some mandatory profile details that need to be updated.
Click Here to update now."

Which gives the blank screen again, and you get stuck in a loop, or you get to a "null" page which says:

"Sorry,the page you requested was not found. 
Please check the URL for proper spelling and capitalization. If you're having trouble locating a destination, try from our home page."

Closing and reopening the browser, you can then get the logon form again.

At this point it will now tell you "Invalid loginName/password. Please try again." even though they're not.

After 30 seconds or so, it will finally accept the login credentials again.

However, going to the "My Info" tab goes back to a blank screen.


The only rememedy is to leave it alone for some time and then try, after quite a while it seems to work out what ever it got confused about.

Very irritating to say the least, anyone else noticed it? I quickly update the "notes" field to test/replicate it.

Additionally, following every update to ADSelfService, I have to go in and re-save our Self Service Layout, if I don't and someone uses it to update their details, their Active Directory account has the following fields BLANKED: Firstname, Lastname, Display name and Email, and other users start seeing them in Outlook/Lync as their email address instead of their name!
