'What do the various convertstore errors mean?

I am trying to convert a 2 tier symbol store into a 3-tier symbol store using the convertstore.exe tool as described by Microsoft.

However, I get error messages which do not tell me much. Depending on which store I want to convert I get the following errors:

  • Failed initial checks.
  • Failed to lock Symbol Store. Error 0x00000003.
  • ERROR: Couldn't create X:\...\index2.txt. Error 0x00000005.

Sometimes convertstore seems to run without error message, but it hasn't converted the store.

What do these error messages mean and how to mitigate them?
