Hi,

I have the following problem on a Sharepoint Portal Server as follows:

I can log on and browse the site but when I try and change any site settings
I get the following error in the browser: Operation Aborted

I am logged on with the site administrator.

In the event log there are loads of the following errors:

--------------------------------------

Event ID: 3036
Source: Microsoft SharepointPS Search Service
Category: Gatherer

Description:
The content source <sps://sitename/site$$$people> cannot be accessed.

Context: http://sitename/Application, Portal_Content Catalog

Details:

Operation aborted (0x80004004)

---------------------

This is a single server installation hosting one site. It is using the SQL
engine shipped with the product.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
