SharePoint Content Deployment Error: The specified name is already in use.

  • Artikel

When creating content deployment paths on MOSS you need to make sure that the site collection designated as the Destination Site Collection is based on a Blank site template. The Blank site template is the only template able to import content from other site template types.

the best way to create the site collection this purpose is by using the following stsadm command line:

STSADM.EXE -o createsite -url https://sitecollectionurl -ownerlogin domainname/username -owneremail owner@email.net

If the destination site collection is based on other site templates then expect to receive a series of warnings in the job history followed by the errors below:

    Interesting post. I'm seeing this same error message presented in the site collections features area when I try to enable the "Office SharePoint Server Publishing Infrastructure" feature.
