contents We show that the Taylor-Wiles method can be applied to the cohomology of a Shimura variety $S$ of PEL type attached to a unitary similitude group $G$, with coefficients in the coherent sheaf attached to an automorphic vector bundle $\CF$ , when $S$ has a smooth model over a $p$-adic integer ring. This generalizes the main results of the article \cite{H13}, which treated the case when $S$ is compact. As in the previous article, the starting point is a theorem of Lan and Suh that proves the vanishing of torsion in the cohomology under certain conditions on the parameters of the bundle $\CF$ and the prime $p$. Most of the additional difficulty in the non-compact case is related to showing that the contributions of boundary cohomology are all of Eisenstein type. We also need to show that the coverings giving rise to the diamond operators can be extended to étale coverings of appropriate toroidal compactifications. The result is applied to show that, when the Taylor-Wiles method applies, the congruence ideal attached to a coherent cohomological realization of an automorphic Galois representation is independent of the signatures of the hermitian form to which $G$ is attached. We also show that the Gorenstein hypothesis used to construct $p$-adic $L$-functions in \cite{EHLS} is valid under rather general hypotheses.
