Error message when you try to create a content deployment path in SharePoint Server 2007: "Value not in expected range"

SYMPTOMS

Consider the following scenario. You upgrade a Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 Beta environment to Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 Beta 2 Technical Refresh. On the Manage Content Deployment Paths and Jobs page, you try to create a content deployment path that replicates a SharePoint Server 2007 site collection to another SharePoint Server 2007 site collection in the same SharePoint Server 2007 farm. In this scenario, you receive the following error message:
Error

Value not in expected range.

WORKAROUND

To work around this issue, run the Stsadmn command at a command prompt. To do this, follow these steps:
  1. Use an account that has administrative permissions to log on to the computer that is running SharePoint Server 2007 Beta 2 Technical Refresh.
  2. Click Start, click Run, type cmd, and then click OK.
  3. At the command prompt, change to the \Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\12\BIN directory.
  4. At the command prompt, type the following commands. Press ENTER after you type each command:
    Stsadm -o deactivatefeature -name deployment -url URL
    Stsadm -o deactivatefeature -name migration -url URL
    Stsadm -o activatefeature -name deployment -url URL
    Stsadm -o activatefeature -name migration -url URL
    Note URL is a placeholder for the SharePoint Server 2007 server and for the site collection where you want to enable the deployment feature, as in the following example:
    http://ServerName/SiteCollection
