Hi All, We are running into a wierd kind of problem, we had a site called A, A had to be split for two different user base so A was backedup and restored to B minus the usergroups. Now we have two sites A & B with its own user groups. Site collection admins of B are not able to create subsites in B. But site collection Admins of both A & B are able to create subsites in either sites. if site collection admin of B is given read/write control on Site A then he is able to create sites in B (totally wierd) Can anybody help me identifying what is happening here and points to start our troubleshooting. Thanks in Advance, Vidya Deveoper

Remove the users/groups from web B and inherit from the parent web. If the user is available in the site collection administrators list then by default site collection administrator will get all rights. Senthilrajan Kaliyaperumal

Hi Senthil, Thanks for your reply but this is a root level site. -VidyaDeveoper

Hi, You said site collection admins of B were not able to create sub sites in B, was there any error message when creating sub site? And could you please tell me how did you backup site A and restore to B? Let me know the result.Xue-Mei Chang

Hi All, We created a ticket with MS and it was concluded that this will be fixed with SP2. After SP2 we dont have this issue anymore. Thanks, VidyaDeveoper
