[opencms-dev] Error importing site from zip-file

[Yves Glodt]

I just tried something else which I expected to work, but it did not...

in one OpenCms instance, I have my production site under
/sites/mysite.com

I created a database export of it.

Then I created /sites/old.mysite.com (and set it up in opencms-system.xml), 
and wanted to import the former export-file there, but I get the same style of 
errors. No file nor folder get created since they already exists with the same 
UUID, although in another VFS-path.

Is it not possible to export/import a site from one VFS-path to another ? Or 
should I just make copy/paste from within the workplace?

Best regards,
Yves
