SYMPTOMS
When you try to use the Site Builder to start site deployment in Export mode, the interface window may not appear, and you may receive the following error message:

Error: 0

Description: Bad file name or number

Severity: 5

Source: NRSiteDeployUI

Debug info: N/A

Extra info: N/A

Client Source: frmExportFrame::Init

Recommended Action: N/A



CAUSE
The My Documents folder is mapped to a hidden folder or to the root of a network share, such as \\server\share. When site deployment is started in Export mode, it reads the user profile from the My Documents folder. By design, site deployment cannot parse through a hidden folder.



WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, use one of the following methods:
 * Change the mapped folder to a non-hidden folder.
 * Create a folder inside the hidden folder, and then map the My Documents folder to that subfolder.
 * Map a network drive to your hidden folder, and then map the My Documents folder to that network drive.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in Content Management Server 2001.
