The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

E_ACCESSDENIED error when trying to import sites into new site collection with stsadm

Asked by Tray896 in MOSS-Sharepoint

Tags: , , ,

Here's the situation.

We have a site located at www.site1.com which is made up of hundreds of site collections.  My team recently took over the SharePoint infrastructure at work, and joined a project in-progress that where the purpose is to migrate many of those site collections into a new web application, located at www.site2.com/Sitecollection1.  

To accomplish this task we've created batch file scripts using the import and export commands with stsadm.exe.  A few months ago we imported/exported a good chunk of sites into the new web app with no problems.  This weekend we were attempting to migrate another group of sites into the same web app, but a new site collection and content database.  The exports of the sites went fine, but when we started attempting the imports every single site through an error similar to this:

Progress: De-Serializing Objects to Database.
FatalError: Access is denied. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070005 (E_ACCESSDENIED))
   at Microsoft.SharePoint.SPGlobal.HandleUnauthorizedAccessException(UnauthorizedAccessException ex)
   at Microsoft.SharePoint.Library.SPRequest.CreateWeb(String bstrUrl, String bstrTitle, String bstrDescription, UInt32 nLCID, String bstrWebTemplate, Boolean bCreateUniqueWeb, Boolean bConvertIfThere, Guid& pgWebId, Guid& pgRootFolderId, Boolean bCreateSystemCatalogs)


We've had our DBA verify that the service account we are logged in and running the imports scripts as does have DBO rights on the content databases.  Just for testing we had him give the service account SA rights, and even then we continued to get the ACCESSDENIED errors.  Also for testing I blew away the site collection, and created a new content DB and site collection and then tried to import in to there.  Same error.  To troubleshoot even further, I ran the same batch script in our pre-prod environment and it imported the sites just fine.  

If anyone can offer some insight I'd really appreciate it.  Thanks!Start Free Trial
