Hi.
I'm in the process of upgrading from SharePoint 2007 to 2013 and have come across an error which I think has occurred since trying to deploy a new feature to implement our "Company Theme" (Custom look). Please note, everything is otherwise behaving as expected in the new 2013 environment and the issue does not occur for site collections/content db's that are deleted and restored from the interim 2010 upgraded backup, so I am assuming its something I've done as part of deploying, retracting and redeploying the theme feature (a number of times).
So, on to the problem... When I click on "Title, description, and logo" in Site Settings I get the following error:
"Sorry, something went wrong
A list, survey, discussion board, or document library with the specified title already exists in this web site. Please choose another title."
My research suggests there is something wrong with the masterpage, which I had initially included as part of the feature but have since gone back to using the default "seattle.master" when creating the Composed look (only spcolor and spfont are different now).
The same error also occurs when trying to preview a composed look.
Anyway, while I can probably get away with re-upgrading the affected site collections and re-enabling the theme feature, I'd like to know if I can fix this (or rather, what caused it) before going to production.
BTW, I'm getting the following errors in the Log file:
"The list "$Resources:core,webpageassetList;" in web "..." was not created"
"Failed to create list "... etc."
(I would copy the entire error messages but its not pasting - I'll try on a reply post)
Thanks,
Paul.
