Error: "The site <sitename> could not be found in the Web application SPWebApplication Name=MOSS Parent=SPWebService"
Greetings.
I created a blank site collection, by using the following command:
>stsadm -o createsite -url "http://server/sitecollection" -owneremail "myemail@mail.com" -ownerlogin domain\account -sitetemplate STS#1 -title "Site Collection"
Operation completed successfully!
And then I try to create a sub site, by using the following command:
stsadm -o createweb -url "http://server/sitecollection/site" -sitetemplate SPSNHOME -title "Site" -unique
And I receive the following error:
What might be causing this?
I want the Site to be a publishing news site, so I enabled the Publishing features via command line...yet every time I try to create this site under the site collection, I get this error.
In my Server Manager "Application" even log, i see this:
What "list"? I created the Blank site collection, and it is indeed Blank...If i go to the page, i get a "page not found" error, which is what is supposed to happen, I assume?
