Not sure if we are missing any dependency feature or missing any permission. Any suggestions ?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
We are facing the exact same issue with SP2019, this is completely a brand new setup. SharePoint site collection are working fine, however when we try to setup Mysite we get the exact same error, we have verified with the pre-requisites an everything is installed properly and functioning. We deleted and recreated entire Mysite web application from scratch and did the configuration multiple times and still its the same issue. There is no firewall or antivirus installed.
Regards,
Lishoy

Hi, We are facing the same issue with mysite creation on a SharePoint 2019 on-prem deployment wherein mysites are not creating for the users
@JeanMadan-7109- Can you check if you can access my site web application and
can you access any other site collection in the farm if yes and click on the waffle and then click on OneDrive or SharePoint - does it work?
@ChelseaWu-MSFT - In my case OneDrive is stuck in Give us a moment to setup things up & SharePoint loads up fine
My site about me - has this error -
We're sorry. Something went wrong with your My Site setup.
Please try again later or contact your help desk.
My site gives the following error
Mysite provisioning failed for user:[i:0#.w|domain\user] with correlationid:[9583edc9-332f-4001-8e6d-298df66ec7d4] on retry attempt:[0] on queue type:[]. Error:[SiteProvisioningException: ExceptionType: SelfServiceSiteCreate InnerException: Microsoft.SharePoint.SPException: Cannot complete this action.
Do you have trouble accessing Central Administration or other site collections in this farm?
Please check as following for basic troubleshooting:
Because My Sites have dependencies on other service applications and features in SharePoint Server, ensure that you meet the prerequisites in this section before you perform the procedures in this task.
@ChelseaWu-MSFT
Thanks for replying back..
1, Yes i can access CA and all other site collections in this farm
2, No Firewalls or Antivirus Installed
3, We are not using the System Account as Managed account to run the service application pool in IIS
4, Farm admin account has full control - administrators access for UPSA
I even deleted the Mysite web application and re-created everything and still ended up getting the same error.
Is the User Profile Service Application in well function, for example, can you visit user profiles normally? What authentication method are you using for the web applications?
If everything works normally, you can build the My Site host in an existing web application, for example, under “http://sp2019:80/my/”.
UPSA is functioning and i can access all the settings, We are using Windows (AD) authentication
I tried hosting My site with an existing web app and even deleted and re-created a new web application.. & still getting the same error
@נєяяу Aη∂яєωѕ Have you enabled Self-Service Site Creation for the web application set as My Site host?
Also check if NT AUTHORITY\LOCAL SERVICE has been granted Full Read permission to this web application under User Policy. Usually it is set by default when the web application is created, but please check just in case.
Here is one more guidance article on My Site configuration you can refer to: Configure My Sites in SharePoint 2016 - Step by Step Guide.
@ChelseaWu-MSFT - Self Service site creation is enabled on the web application, and NT AUTHORITY\LOCAL SERVICE has been granted Full Read permission to this web application under User Policy.
@נєяяу Aη∂яєωѕ Can you provide the current patching version for your SharePoint farm?
