Using Import SPWeb migrating from TEST-PROD

Posted: 09 Mar 2018

Hi!

We have a website on our Production server that requires additional coding and had decided to migrate it down to our TEST Farm for this work.

When I try to run "Import-SPWEB" it fails with the error "FatalError: Could not find Feature FormsDesigner."

Forms designer is activated and functioning in the Site Collection. Only difference is that the TEST Farm is a development license.

Anyone have any recommendations?

Dear Skiptheb,
The license itself makes no difference in the process, so it's definitely not the problem. One possible reason for this error might be that you try to migrate from SP2010, but haven't deactivated Forms Designer first. It needs to be deactivated prior to the process, even if you delete Forms Designer, it's still might be looking for SP2010 version. Deactivate the feature first, then you should be able to migrate without an issue.
