I have a color checker passport and I use it to set white balance on many shoots. I have a problem though if I export and create a profile it causes a green overcast on my shots. This is especially noticeable indoors under soft white lights. Anyone else notice this or have a solution?

Is your monitor calibrated?

Post an image maybe?

Yeah I am calibrated. It only happens under tungsten lighting. I will post some samples later. I did find some posts on the interweb about others experiencing the same phenomenon.

Did you create a dual-illuminant profile, or did you create the profile in the same lighting you are having issues with?

I created the profile in the lighting that is problematic.

What was your shutter speed? Fluorescent lights have a 100-120 Hz "flickr", and if your shutter speed is higher than this you can get inconsistent exposures and color casts. I would make sure the SS on both the photo you used to create the profile with and the pictures you are having issues with are taken with a slower SS so that you catch the full "cycle" of the lights.
