Re: Roaming profiles don't load on workstations

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

I am seeing this same behavior on 3-4 of the 10 workstations on my network.
The file name really does exist on the server.

We're running Windows Server 2003 R2. This problem appeared a few days
after we applied Service Pack 2, but I don't know for a fact that it's
related. Our workstations are all running Windows XP Pro SP2.

Hello,

Can you provide example of file name ? Do they really exist on the file
server ?

can you make a chkdsk in read only on the file server's volume ?

We have a problem that is occurring on about 5% of our 250 workstations.
Users are suddenly unable to log in and have their roaming profiles load
on
the local computer. Shortly after "Loading Personal Settings" comes up an
error message appears (also logged to the Applications event log)
indicating
that a file cannot be copied. It is a different file each time a given
user
logs in. The message is a Userenv error, ID 1509, Windows cannot copy
file.
The description says "Possbile causes of this error include network
problems
or insufficient security rights. If this problem persists, contact your
network administrator. DETAIL - The process cannot access the file because
it
is being used by another process."

I've also enabled verbose logging in userenv.log. The log shows that the
profile directory is being created and files are copied successfully but
part
way through the error occurs. The log shows the error "Failed to rename
file
... to ... with error 32." The profile folder is deleted and a temporary
profile is loaded for the user.

It doesn't seem to matter whether a user has successfully logged into the
machine and has an existing profile or has no local profile cached on the
machine. I have verified the security of all profile files on the server
and
all are correct. It seems to happen to every user that logs on to the
affected computer.

Any ideas would be helpful.
