Sharepoint Subscription Edition error anonymous access user profile application

Question

Hi,

I'm having a problem configuring SharePoint.
I would like to have a site accessible by anonymous users. When users log in, they have other pages. They also must have Self-service site creation (about me).
I have configured anonymous access. Works. I have configured user profile application with self-service site creation. Also works.
The problem is that by activating the « user profile service application » on the web application (proxy group default) the anonymous access no longer works. Forced to login (prompt). If I remove the user profile service application from the proxy group. Anonymous access works but I no longer have the "about me" button, just the user's name.
The same configuration on my SharePoint on premise 2019 works without problem.
Is this a bug or is there a particular configuration to do?

thanks

Answer 1

I just test in lab with 2019 and 2022. Same instal (Windows server 2022 clone), same Sql Server an AD. It's works on 2019, not on 2022. I thinks it's a bug. This is problematic because it is a major unusable feature.

Answer 2

I found the answer. Disable « following content » (suivie de contenu in french) in site features. No need to do it with Sharepoint 2019. Bug?
