Offline File synchronization error

[shawn]

All,

User is attempting to add network folder for offline synchronization. User
already has many offline files marked prior to this issue occurring today.
After adding new folder to network and attempting to mark it available
offline, an error dialog is displayed with following info:

------------------

Errors occurred while windows was synchronizing your data.

Results tab detail: Offline files (network share): Unable to make 'Folder
Name' available offline on "network path". The system is currently running
with the last-known-good configuration.

----------------------

The user has rebooted several times...nothing obvious in event viewer...any
thoughts on what's the issue may be? User has never seen the the last know
good menu...

Thanks in advance.

Shawn

Click Skip to skip any items for synchronization that are not available
from the current network connection.
In Windows Explorer, click Synchronize on the Tools menu, and then click
to clear the check boxes for items that are not available when you
synchronize from the current network connection.

This solution does not work. I get the same error. I removed the offending
files from the source, re-synchronized, added the files back to the source
and synchronized again and I had the same error. Please get back to me with
a possible solution. Thank you very much.

All,

I resolved this issue later the same day...I just had some interest in fix,
so I thought I would post for all to read...

It seems as though one of the network folder nodes that I was trying to use
offline somehow was corrupted and the synchronization would not work for
this folder or any folders/files that fell under this problem folder. I
created another folder and subfolders at same level and moved all files to
appropriate new folders and then deleted the old corrupt node and all
subdirectories. It was somewhat tedious...but it seemed to resolve the
issue.
