[opencms-dev] importing site from opencms 6.0 b3 to opencms 6.0 RC1

[Yves Ackaert]

I have experimented opencms 6.0 b3 to start building a site under
/sites/mysite/ in vfs
In order to import my work in opencms 6.0 RC1,
I have well noticed the following instructions found in the mailing list
archives:

Being in my opencms 6.0 b3 webapp instance (under webapps/opencms6),
I have exported (database export) the content of my site (being in the site
/sites/mysite/).
Then in my opencms 6.0 RC webapp instance (under webapps/opencms60),
I have created a site mysite
(using following line in opencms-system.xml :<site server="my.site"
uri="/sites/mysite/"/>)
and imported (database import) the zip file created at previous step (being
in the site /sites/mysite/).

The resources are correctly placed under /sites/mysite/
but when I try to access index.html file for instance (being in site
/sites/mysite/), by left-clicking on it in the workplace.
I get the following :

Error reading resource from path "/sites/default/index.html"

Requested resource: /index.html
OpenCms version: 6.0 RC 1 Corrin
OpenCms context: /opencms60/opencms

It seems the system does not bind well my resource to
/sites/mysite/index.html

Do I have to perform some extra configuration in order to correctly handle
- re-importing of a site which is not /sites/default/  (but /sites/mysite/)
- re-importing between two contexts which do not have the default context
name "opencms"
(but source is "opencms6" and target is "opencms60")

Thanks in advance for every hints you could provide to me in order to
preserve work already done
