upgrade, when customer goes into Central Admin->manage user profile service
app->manage user profiles, select a user, he cannot uploaded their profile
picture any more, when he click choose picture and upload, it threw this error
"There was an error saving the picture. Please try again later.", he
does not see anything in the ULS log. The user is able to upload their own
pictures however not the admin.

 

Root cause:

This seems to be a known issue of June CU. The fix is under development and will be released soon.

Use powershell script to do the update.
