Folder Redirection Event Log error

We are using a GPO to implement folder redirection on new Windows 7 computers. The event log shows "Failed to apply policy and redirect folder Documents to "%OneDriveSync%\Documents". Error details, "The specified path is invalid".

 

Everything looks good to us, does anyone have any suggestions about how to troubleshoot?

        Are you following this support article? https://support.office.com/en-us/article/Redirect-known-folders-to-OneDrive-for-Business-e1b3963c-7c6c-4694-9f2f-fb8005d9ef12?ui=en-US&rs=en-US&ad=US

        I found the described procedure to be very stringent: are you varying something, perhaps?
