Upgrade Site Collection which is created in SharePoint 2010 using custom site definition when using template ID 10000.

This post is a contribution from Aravinda Devagari, an engineer with the SharePoint Developer Support team

· First convert the 2010 classic mode web application to claims web application by following the steps below.

$webapp = "https://sp:29616"

$wa = Get-SPWebApplication $webapp

$wa.UseClaimsAuthentication = $true

$wa.Update()

$account = "contoso\administrator"

$account = (New-SPClaimsPrincipal -Identity $account -IdentityType 1).ToEncodedString()

$wa = Get-SPWebApplication $webapp

$zp = $wa.ZonePolicies("Default")

$p = $zp.Add($account,"PSPolicy")

$fc = $wa.PolicyRoles.GetSpecialRole("FullControl")

$p.PolicyRoleBindings.Add($fc)

$wa.Update()

$wa.MigrateUsers($true)

$wa.ProvisionGlobally()

· OR follow https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg251985(v=office.15).aspx to convert the web application afterwards in 2013 environment, but the above should be easier.

· Backup the database from 2010 and copy it over to 2013 SQL environment.

· Create a new web application on 2013 and delete the default content database created.

· Restore the backed up database to 2013 SQL instance.

· Import the 2010 solution to VS 2012 or 2013 and deploy it to 2013 environment as a farm solution.  Before deploying to 2013 environment, ensure that you change the template ID from 10000 to 11111[ You can take any other number greater than 10000]

· Copy the original webtemp*.xml and the site definition folder to the corresponding locations on the 2013 server but in 14 hive. [Note: this webtemp*.xml will have the template ID as 10000]

· Then create a UDF with a definition as shown in sample below.  In relation to your custom site definition, the highlighted statements below are the ones that are important.

· Save this UDF as “WssUpgrade_SiteDefinitionProject1.xml” to the following path C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\15\CONFIG\UPGRADE\WSSUpgrade_CustomSideDef.xml.

· Issue a Test-SPContentDatabase command through SharePoint 2013 Management Shell as shown below and ensure the output is what you see below.

· Then issue the Mount-SPContentDatabase command as shown below:

· This should upgrade the content database and attach it to the empty web application.

· Post this when you browse to the site, you will see it’s in 2010 mode as shown in below.
