Error when importing a site collection
Hi, I get an error when importing a site collection. I export the site collection on one server and then import on another server. Here is the error: Microsoft.SharePoint.SPException: Could not find Feature FT-01-84e18686-6ad8-b20a-ade3-fb75e27c7630. at Microsoft.SharePoint.Deployment.ImportRequirementsManager.VerifyFeatureDefinition(SPRequirementObject reqObj) at Microsoft.SharePoint.Deployment.ImportRequirementsManager.Validate(SPRequirementObject reqObj) at Microsoft.SharePoint.Deployment.ImportRequirementsManager.DeserializeAndValidate() at Microsoft.SharePoint.Deployment.SPImport.VerifyRequirements() at Microsoft.SharePoint.Deployment.SPImport.Run() at Tokendev_Sharepoint_Backup_and_Restore.Form1.<RunRestoreExecution>b__8()

Hi there. Assuming that both the source and destination farms are of the same version, service pack level and type (WSS vs.MOSS) it seems that the site collection is dependent on a feature that doesn't exist on the destination server. Take a look on your source site collection and see if there are any custom features that you will need to install on the destination farm. Hope this helps. Regards, MagnusMy blog: InsomniacGeek.com

Hi Magnus Thank you for your reply! The server I am exporting from is 64 bit and importing to 32 bit. Is this a problem and can I get around it?

Hi. Do you have any (3rd party) 64bit specific feature installed? Regards, MagnusMy blog: InsomniacGeek.com

if its site collection use stsadm -o backup and stsadm - restore operation. import and export are used for sites. the error you are getting is based on the infopath template. and it is installed as a solution. checked it out in the solution management which infopath template is creating a Problem. May be you have to retract the solution and deploy it back. try it first in dev or test and then try in prod. Aniket
