SYMPTOMS
You receive the following error message when you run Microsoft Content Management Server (MCMS) Site Deployment to import or export by using either a Site Deployment script or Site Deployment Manager:

Error: 0 Description: The remote server returned an error: (403) Forbidden. Severity: 5 Source: System Debug info: N/A Extra info: N/A Client Source: CExProgress::ProcessPackage Recommended Action: N/A

To receive this error message, you must use a SQL login to connect to the database, not a trusted connection.

Because you must use SQL logging, one method to work around this problem is to use a trusted connection. To do this, run the Database Configuration Application (DCA). When you choose the computer that is running Microsoft SQL Server, and you choose the database for MCMS, choose to enable a trusted connection. Make sure that the user who runs the DCA has user rights to the MCMS database.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in Content Management Server 2002.
