We are in the process of moving over local development to a live server for a public facing site. One problem we have is Manage Content and Structure returns a "Not found" error while logged into sharepoint remotely browsing the site. It does work when on remote desktop browsing locally so it leads me to believe it is a permission problem. I've gone through and set any sharepoint/iis permissions I can think of on this folder with no luck. Any suggestions? Full error is below:File Not Found. at Microsoft.SharePoint.SPSite..ctor(SPFarm farm, Uri requestUri, Boolean contextSite, SPUserToken userToken) at Microsoft.SharePoint.SPSite..ctor(String requestUrl) at Microsoft.SharePoint.Publishing.Internal.VariationSettingsFactory.GetCachedVariationSettings(String requestUrl, Boolean elevatedSite, HttpContext httpContext) at Microsoft.SharePoint.Publishing.Internal.VariationSettingsFactory.CreateVariationSettings(String requestUrl, Boolean elevatedSite) at Microsoft.SharePoint.Publishing.PublishingWeb.<>c__DisplayClass1e.<GetVariationRootPublishingWebUrl>b__1b() at Microsoft.SharePoint.SPSecurity.CodeToRunElevatedWrapper(Object state) at Microsoft.SharePoint.SPSecurity.<>c__DisplayClass4.<RunWithElevatedPrivileges>b__2() at Microsoft.SharePoint.Utilities.SecurityContext.RunAsProcess(CodeToRunElevated secureCode) at Microsoft.SharePoint.SPSecurity.RunWithElevatedPrivileges(WaitCallback secureCode, Object param) at Microsoft.SharePoint.SPSecurity.RunWithElevatedPrivileges(CodeToRunElevated secureCode) at Microsoft.SharePoint.Publishing.PublishingWeb.GetVariationRootPublishingWebUrl() at Microsoft.SharePoint.Publishing.PublishingWeb.get_IsVariationHome() at Microsoft.SharePoint.Publishing.Internal.WebControls.ObjectSerializer.evaluateIconInfo() at Microsoft.SharePoint.Publishing.Internal.WebControls.ObjectSerializer.get_IconUrl() at Microsoft.SharePoint.Publishing.Internal.WebControls.EcbEnabledTreeNode..ctor(EcbEnabledTreeView owner, PublishingWeb area) at Microsoft.SharePoint.Publishing.Internal.WebControls.SmtTreeNode..ctor(EcbEnabledTreeView owner, PublishingWeb area) at Microsoft.SharePoint.Publishing.Internal.WebControls.SMTreeView.CreateNode(PublishingWeb area, EcbEnabledTreeNode parent) at Microsoft.SharePoint.Publishing.Internal.WebControls.SMTreeView.InitialLoadCreateRootNode() at Microsoft.SharePoint.Publishing.Internal.WebControls.EcbEnabledTreeView.OnLoad(EventArgs e) at Microsoft.SharePoint.Publishing.Internal.WebControls.SMTreeView.OnLoad(EventArgs e) at System.Web.UI.Control.LoadRecursive() at System.Web.UI.Control.LoadRecursive() at System.Web.UI.Control.LoadRecursive() at System.Web.UI.Control.LoadRecursive() at System.Web.UI.Page.ProcessRequestMain(Boolean includeStagesBeforeAsyncPoint, Boolean includeStagesAfterAsyncPoint)

I encountered the same problem. The culprit was a master page located at the root of the site. I deleted the master page with sharepoint designer, and the problem went away.

Hi,I'm having the same problem... How did you manage to solve it? (I haven't any MasterPage at the root of the site, mine is located in my http://<mysite>/_catalogs/masterpage/folder.Thanks!Amlie
