SYMPTOMS
The following event message occurs in the Event Viewer:   EventId: 7034 Unable to load DLL %SYSTEMDRIVE%\Program Files\Common Files\SYSTEM\ContentIndex\ontciutl.dll>. Error: 5 - Access is  denied.



CAUSE
The LAN Manager redirector cannot reliably query for the existence of a file on a universal naming convention (UNC) path. The UNC path is a directory path that contains a file share access to a certain server that is compliant with the Microsoft network. An example of a UNC path is as follows:

\\myserver\myshare



WORKAROUND
 If possible, remove the UNC path in the SYSTEM and USER path variables.

-or-

If this is not possible, add the location %SYSTEMDRIVE%\Program Files\Common Files\SYSTEM\ContentIndex to the SYSTEM path BEFORE any UNC path variables. Restart the computer. SYSTEM variables are loaded on system startup.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Site Server version 3.0.
