Here my issue: I have 2 SP farms, therefore two web apps/site collections/ etc.

On one, I run: Import-SPWeb -Identity "http://policies/locations/0015/" -Path "C:\filepath.cmp" -Force

which works just fine. On the other farm, I run basically the same with the exception of the identity: Import-SPWeb -Identity "http://v2policies/locations/0015/" -Path "C:\filepath.cmp" -Force

However this one gives the "Cannot find an SPWeb object with Id or Url" error.

Both URLs are valid, so why would one work and the other not? Running PS as admin, and the user account I am logged into is part of "SPShellAdmin". Running from CA server in each farm.

  • Running that gives the "Cannot find and SPWeb object with Id or URL" error. I am able to pull it up fine in the browser though.

  • Okay so running get-spsite returns the URL fine. So now what does that mean here? (Sorry, still fairly new to all this).

Well I've gotten it to work now. It appears as if even though the account was in "SPShellAdmin" the content DB wasn't specified. Following the steps here: bramnuyts.be/2011/06/08/… seem to have fixed it up.
