Export to SDO does not create valid SDO file (811924)



The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Content Management Server 2002

SYMPTOMS

When you import a Server Data Object (SDO) file that was generated without any problems, you may receive the following error message:
The XML parser could not parse the tag it was given.
When you open the SDO file with Notepad, you see an HTML text page instead of valid SDO binary content.

CAUSE

On the exporting computer, anonymous access to the /NR virtual directory was removed.

RESOLUTION

To resolve this problem, adjust permissions on the /NR virtual directory and in access control lists (ACLs) for files in this directory. Specifically, make sure that anonymous access is granted to the /NR virtual directory and all subdirectories. Additionally, make sure Read rights have been granted to Everyone on the physical directories and files that this virtual directory is mapped to (this is generally C:\Program Files\Microsoft Content Management Server\Server\IIS_NR).

STATUS

This behavior is by design.
