Compilation has finished successfully, but the ending status has not been properly set" error message is displayed on the Manage Audiences page after you compile an audience in SharePoint Portal Server 2003

SYMPTOMS

In Microsoft Office SharePoint Portal Server 2003, after you click Start compilation to compile an audience for your portal site, you may receive an error message that is similar to the following in the Compilation errors area of the Manage Audiences page:
Compilation has finished successfully, but the ending status has not been properly set. If you need to rerun audience compilation, stop the current process before you rerun.
You receive this error message even though the compilation operation is successful, and the audiences that you configured in SharePoint Portal Server work as expected.

CAUSE

This problem may occur in situations when you compile an audience that has a large number of members, and the defragment operation that occurs takes a longer time than the default value that is currently set in SharePoint Portal Server. For example, this problem may occur when you compile an audience that has 7.5 million members. In this situation, instead of the expected "No error" message in the Compilation errors area of the Manage Audiences page, SharePoint Portal Server displays the error message that is described earlier in the "Symptoms" section of this article when the compilation operation is successful.

WORKAROUND

The symptoms that are described in the "Symptoms" section of this article do not affect the functionality of SharePoint Portal Server. You can safely ignore the error message that is displayed in the Compilation errors area of the Manage Audiences page.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed in the "Applies to" section of this article.
