But the problem is even you did the configuration is correct , Still that the users doesnt use their mysite without their personal sites and looks the Self-Service Site Creation is not working. When you click Sites, Skydrive, NewsFeed links you have facing a blank page for it.

When you checked the ULS logs , you are facing following error ;

Skipping creation of personal site from MySitePersonalSiteUpgradeOnNavigationWebPart::CreatePersonalSite() because one or more of the creation criteria has not been met. [SPWeb Url=https://blog.bugrapostaci.com/Person.aspx?accountname=MyDomain\bugra]  https://blog.bugrapostaci.com/Person.aspx?accountname=MyDomain\bugra] Self-Service Site Creation == True  Can Create Personal Site == False  Is user licensed == False  Storage&Social UPA Permission == True  Site or Page or Web Part is in design mode == False

If you facing this , Looks that you have a problem with User License.

“In Office SharePoint Server 2007 and SharePoint Server 2010, when companies purchased a SharePoint Server Enterprise client access license (CAL) and deployed a server running SharePoint Server Enterprise, all users who accessed that server could use the full enterpr ise feature set. There was no way to determine the CAL that a specific user had. The only way to ensure that only users who had an Enterprice CAL accessed Enterprise features was to have separate Enterprise and Standard server deployments.

In SharePoint 2013, farm administrators now can assign licenses to users and enable license checks. WIth this new functionality, you can ensure that only users with the appropriate license can use a specific feature. This SharePoint Server license implementation is managed by using new Windows PowerShell cmdlets. By default, licensing is disabled in SharePoint Server. Administrators can opt to enable it by using Windows PowerShell.”

if in your system new licensing feature of SharePoint 2013 was enabled but not configured. (In that article also contains how to configure licensing feature) You may probably facing this issue.

For resolving this you have two options.(You must use Windows PowerShell to create mappings for license types and to return user license types. There is no user interface for this feature.)

1) Configure Licensing feature correctly.

Get-SPUserLicense
$a = New-SPUserLicenseMapping -SecurityGroup <yoursecuritygroup> –License Enterprise
$a | Add-SPUserLicenseMapping
Enable-SPUserLicensing

2) Disable Licensing feature
Disable-SPUserLicensing
