RE: [OzMOSS] Moving site content
As suspected the trouble is in the CSS. This is less of a SharePoint issue and more of a design issue. First, check to make sure a different theme hasn't been applied. If that looks OK then you'll need to delve into your CSS to find the name of the image being applied to the nav bar and then replace it with your original. It's inadvisable to replace the default CSS and image files, however, and you should ideally do this through a custom stylesheet. I'd recommend taking this off list and consulting some of the online tutorials dealing with CSS customisation of master pages. http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepointdesigner/HA101009061033.aspx ?pid=CH100667701033 If you're using FireFox then Firebug is your best friend for drilling into a page's source. Otherwise the Developer Toolbar for IE or SharePoint Designer are also useful.

Re: [OzMOSS] Moving site content
Hi Anthony, Doing backup restore is a backup at database level, so it will bring across everything including your test user accounts etc from test domain. You can delete the users once you have the site up and running. To backup make sure you are site collection admin / local admin on test domain. Once you restore (as local admin), you need to set owner for the new site collection, since you are coming from a different domain. stsadm -o setowner -url http://sitename -ownerlogin domain/username -secondarylogin domain\username This will fix you up and you can get to the site collection and then manage users etc. Cheers!

You can delete the users once you have the site up and running. To backup make sure you are site collection admin / local admin on test domain. Once you restore (as local admin), you need to set owner for the new site collection, since you are coming from a different domain. stsadm -o setowner -url http://sitename -ownerlogin domain/username -secondarylogin domain\username This will fix you up and you can get to the site collection and then manage users etc. Cheers!

Re: [OzMOSS] Moving site content
Ok before you do the restore, you would need to create the webapp which will create the database (and the name) that you want. Once that is done, you can do the restore.

RE: [OzMOSS] Moving site content
Wow! I was not aware of this - Be aware that backup/restore of MOSS content databases between server farms are not fully supported! Official documentation of this support limitation is currently in the works. The supported way to transfer content between server farms is to use STSADM -o export/import or content deployment. Backup/restore is only supported for the same server farm. So the only fully supported manner of transferring content between farms is STSADM -o export/import or content deployment ...

Hiya Additonally, grab Gary Lapointe's STSADM extensions and it gives you much improved import/export flexibility as it can be a per list or library thing and handle lookup/dependencies. regards Paul On Tue 22/04/08 11:34 AM , Aaron Saikovski wrote: Hi Anthony, I had this problem recently and found that an export and import works the best.
