I have created some packages to move my website
from one umbraco instance to another instance which are of the same version,
but i am facing some problems while installing them on the new instance. Here
are some of the errors:
1. Maximum requested length exceeded.
What can be the maximum
size of a package to get installed ? ( one of my packages is of size 7.9 which
is not getting installed becoz of exceeded size)
2. Object reference not set to an instance of an
object (System.Nullreference exception)
I
don’t know why this error is coming.
Problems:
1. Can we create a package by only , selecting information in the package
contents tab without selecting any of the remaining tabs.
I have installed a package in which I have selected
the root node which has almost 200 child nodes, but the installation of this
package is breaking up in the middle and not allowing it to re-install (showing
an error as the key was already defined), where it got installed partially and I
don’t find any package in the installed package folder to uninstall.
2. What is the purpose of adding
ExamineIndex.config and ExamineSettings.config from the config folder in
Package Files tab
3. Do we have a problem if we don’t add files from
config , mentiond above.
4. What is the purpose to add <Action
runat=”install” alias=”publishRootDocument” documentName=”Home”/>
5. What are the limitations of package,suggest me how to move my website from one
instance to another.

Hi Sushma,
You might want to have a look at Courier, which is the Umbraco solution for deploying web sites from one server to the other.
