[Please Help] imported site to Alfresco Explorer cannot be found on Alfresco Share

[yunxing]

Hello,

I exported a site from the Alfresco Explorer on one server and imported the resulting .acp file to Explorer on another server. They both have alfresco community 4.2.f . In the destination Alfresco Share, the site can be seen if click on "Sites" tab on top of the page, but if you do a "Site Finder" search, that site cannot be found. Error:

The problematic instruction:

Seems that I probably missed importing some file under sites. Any suggestion what that might be?  I also imported the whole surf-config folder.

Thank you for your help!

Hello,

Look at the permissions set on your site folder. I think that you need to grant Read permissions to group EVERYONE on your site.

Thank you! I tried that, it didn't help, I also tried to set "EVERYONE" as site manager, contributor, collaborator, didn't work either. When you import a site, after import the .acp file, what other steps are there?

You can't import an entire site via acp since there are permissions and config files that are not recorded.      You should be able to use acp import export for part of a site.   In particular the doc lib.
