"Failure decompressing data from a cabinet file" Error while creating saving site as a template

This follows from my previous blog post. This error "Failure decompressing data from a cabinet file" can be avoided by using the stsadm command line tool of MOSS 2007 and using the "nofilecompression" attribute.For example to export a site template, you would use something like this:

  • stsadm.exe -o export -url http://intranet/test -includeusersecurity -nofilecompression -filename C:\backup

Once you finish your export use the stsadm import command with the same nofilecompression attribute. For example:

  • stsadm.exe -o import -url http://intranet/test -includeusersecurity -nofilecompression -filename C:\backup
