Cause:

HTTP timeout while populate the AD containers. This issue occurs when your domain controllers not responding in a timely manner due to AD or network  issues.

Resolution:

  1. Confirm your SharePoint server has connectivity with your DC server

  2. Confirm you have proper permissions as per https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee721049(v=office.14).aspx

  3. If it is a timeout issue while populating AD containers, follow below steps to Increase the AD query timeout value

  4. Right click on the web.config file in the above folder to edit it

    Go to Line 6 <httpRuntime executionTimeout= "360 "> Change the
    executionTimeout value from 360 to 3600

  5. Increase the following timeout values in SharePoint to something above 15 minutes e.g. 30 minutes

  6. Check if AD containers are displayed in SharePoint. If not follow below additional steps.

  7.  $upaAppProxy = Get-SPServiceApplicationProxy | ? {$_.name -like 'User Profile Service Proxy'}

    $upaAppProxy.ImportConnAsyncTimeout = 1800 //This value is in seconds

    $upaAppProxy.Update()

  8. $upaApp = Get-SPServiceApplication | ? {$_.name -like 'User Profile Service'}

    $upaApp. FIMWebClientTimeOut = 1800000 //This value is in milliseconds

    $upaApp.Update()

  9. $upaAppProxy = Get-SPServiceApplicationProxy | ? {$_.name -like 'User Profile Service Proxy'}

    $upaAppProxy.LdapConnectionTimeout = 1800 //This value is in seconds

    $upaAppProxy.Update()

  10. This will allow you to populate AD user containers and create new sync connection. If still gets timeout issue, then investigate the SharePoint, AD connectivity errors.
