SYMPTOMS
When you are logged on as a local administrator, you cannot create new subfolders. When you try to create a new folder in the Documents folder, you receive the following error message:

A folder already exist with the same name.

When you try to create a folder in a subfolder of the Documents folder, you receive the following error message:

You do not have permissions to create a sub folder or a problem with the network forbids authentication to the server.



CAUSE
This issue occurs because SharePoint Portal Server registers some event sink callbacks with the information store to implement some of its Document Management functionality.

In certain situations, the SharePoint Portal Server backup and restore process causes the SharePoint Portal Server event sink callbacks to be registered multiple times with the information store. These multiple registrations cause the information store to call the SharePoint Portal Server event sink callbacks multiple times for the same event. However, the SharePoint Portal Server callbacks should only have one event sink registered with the information store.
