I am copying files from my build server to a web server on Windows Server 2016. I am running the following from PowerShell. I am running this script with an administer account which has read/write access to the destination directory.
robocopy $Path\Items $_\Items /Sec /copy:DT /MIR /NDL /NS /NP /MT /w:1 /r:1 /R:20 2>&1 | out-host
I get the following error
ERROR 5 (0x00000005) Creating Destination Directory
\SOMEPATH\Data\Items\ Access is denied.
Ensure that you open your powershell session as an administrator (runas)
Also check the NTFS permission on the destination path and not only the security permissions.
If you are using a DFS path you should be better with the UNC path of the actual servername.
Hope this helps.
Actually I was not able to post this as a comment under your question, because I don't have 50 rep points yet.

I have a powershell script that that copies published files for a web app to a server for deployment. It utilizes robocopy to copy the files. Due to lack of administrator privileges, I can only use restartable mode (/z) and not restartable mode with backup mode (/zb). My question is two parts:
How reliable is robocopy using restartable mode- how likely are files to become corrupted?
What would be the best way to incorporate into the script a check to see whether a file has corrupted during the copying process?
Here is a sample of my code:
robocopy /s /z /ndl /r:0 /w:0 /mt:32 .\Publish "DESTINATION_HERE" /MIR
Hoping someone familiar with Windows 10 and Robocopy can help.
I am using the following robocopy command in backup script that is being run as Administrator (yes the real Administrator user ID)
runas /user:Administrator backup.bat
robocopy N:\FNL E:\FNL /MIR /E /Z /R:1 /W:1 /V /NP /LOG+:backup.log
As long as there have been no new files for directories created in the source folder, in this case N:\FNL it seems to run fine. As soon as I create a directory, for example "Fred", I get the following error:
ERROR 124 (0x0000007C) Creating Destination Directory N:\FNL\Fred
The system call level is not correct.
I have changed file permission for "Authenticated Users" to Full Control and as well have taken ownership of all folders and sub-folders/child objects on the target drive but still get the same error.
Anyone have an idea what I might be doing wrong?

How to get rid of the error . I am trying to copy a folder from a Sharedrive to a sharepoint site. ?
If you doing this on Windows 2008 or later try using a Administrative command prompt. I just discovered this 'security feature' copying data from one server to another where I was admin on both
I need to copy directory from a server to the Program Files folder on desktop using local admin. This is what I have so far.
robocopy "server source" "C:\Program Files\Test" /MIR
I get the follwoing error
2014/05/23 17:53:04 ERROR 5 (0x00000005) Creating Destination Directory C:\Program Files\Test\
Access is denied.
I'm running the bat on logon via GPO.
Can someone please help me?
Thanks.
I changed the location to %appdata% from program files.
I got the command in robocopy as mentioned below
ROBOCOPY Source Destination [file…[file]…..] [Options]
Source: Source Directory
Destination: Destination Directory
Files: files to copy .
Please let us know what does the "\server\share\path" means? Kindly provide me an example on this command syntax and explain
An example of a ROBOCOPY call would be
ROBOCOPY C:\Users \\SERVER\backup\Users /MIR /R:0 /W:0
This copys everything under C:\Users to a network share at the UNC path \\SERVER\backup. If you don't know, what that means, google for 'UNC path' or find a nice tutorial that explains how to setup network shares under Windows.
Instead of \\SERVER\backup, that copies to a remote machine, you are totally free to use something like H:\ to copy to a local drive like a USB mass storage device.
The part /MIR /R:0 /W:0 are options of ROBOCOPY. Call ROBOCOPY /? to get an explanation for these.
Cheers,
