Guest circulent Posted October 22, 2008 Posted October 22, 2008 We are using folder redirection. For some reason we have a few end users which cannot sync correctly. This is the error we get: Failed to apply policy and redirect folder "RoamingAppData" to "\\sql1\profiles$\mlee\Application Data". Redirection options=80009211. The following error occurred: "Failed to redirect because the destinaiton directory "\\sql1\profiles$\mlee\Application Data" is offline". Error details: "The network path was not found. What's odd is that we can access SQL just fine, and the partition called PROFILES is properly shared as PROFILES$. Does anyone have any ideas why this might be broken? Thanks
Guest Salvador Manaois III Posted October 22, 2008 Posted October 22, 2008 RE: Major Folder Redirection Issues Possibly, the offline files (CSC or Client Side Caching) cache and database may be corrupted. You may have to reinitialize the cache. One one machine experiencing this problem, please create the following registry entry (reboot the machine after making the change): HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\NetCache Key Name: FormatDatabase Key Type: DWORD Key Value: 1 Reference: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/230738 However, be wary that all cache files are deleted and unsynchronized data is lost.

Guest circulent Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 RE: Major Folder Redirection Issues Hi Salvador, I tried your suggestion, and it did not work. I ended giving up, and removing the GPO altogether. Now the client machines are still looking for the previous location for their profiles (\\sql1\profiles$). Is there a way to manually make them stop looking? I even tried gpupdate /fordce but that had no effect. let me know. Thanks "Salvador Manaois III" wrote: > Possibly, the offline files (CSC or Client Side Caching) cache and database > may be corrupted. You may have to reinitialize the cache.
