Hi!Hope someone in here can help with this one... Been searching the web for an answer, but no luck so far! .oO(Crossing my fingers now!) :)MOSS SP1WSS SP1Windows Server 2003 Ent. SP2 I have an issue where some old MOSS content has been restored to a new server. The content works fine, and most all features are ok. But... When I try to enable the "Office SharePoint Server Publishing" feature i get a "File not found"error - and the eventlog shows the following error:Category: Publishing ProvisioningEvent ID: 4965 Event log message was: 'Failed to initialize some site properties for Web at Url: 'http://daprojekt.cph.da.dk/ProjectArchive''.

This I could actually live with, but my real concern is when I - later want to move a site to a sub-site in the same Collection. Then I get the same error. I'm guessing the error is that some feature (folder or file) is missing or currupted...-------------------Thank's KarstenMCSA

Did you ever get a solution for this; I'm seeing it as well.mrw

I had the same problem. Since you're restoring your old site you need to add back the "Alternate Access Mappings", particularly "http://daprojekt.cph.da.dk" (or whatever the url is that is mentioned). It's looking for that url and can't re-rout to it.

Thanks Justin, I had the same problem after setting up a DNS entry for my server. I used the server name instead of the DNS name and it worked fine. I will look into the alternate access mappings and implement a full fix.
