SYMPTOMS
When you use a drag-and-drop operation to export resources from Site Manager, you may notice unexpected results, or you may receive the following error message (or a similar one):

Error Copying File or Folder - Cannot copy file: Cannot read from the source file or disk.



CAUSE
You can use a drag-and-drop operation in the current version of Site Manager only to import resources. Some scenarios appear to work, but this is only a side effect of the drag-and-drop implementation. The current version of Site Manager does not support the use of a drag-and-drop operation to export resources.



WORKAROUND
To export resources from the Content Management Server repository, create a custom script by using the Publishing function of Content Management Server 2002. If export/import is used to deploy the content to another Content Management Server repository (for example, from a development environment to a staging or a production environment), use the Site Deployment Manager in Site Manager.



STATUS
This behavior is by design.
