I have created my own package Strater Kit that I intend to use when creating a new website.
However, when I install the package, the content nodes are not installed properly.
It seems to miss out my home page content node for some reason, even though the node is contained within the package.xml file. I don't understand why this would be getting missed as the other content nodes are installed fine.
Another thing (posibly related?) is is that I noticed that one other content node seems to have been assigned a totaly different Document Type.
However, If I install the package again, which basicaly creates a second site, all of the content nodes within this second site appear as they should (i.e. Home page is added and all content nodes have been assigned to the correct document type).
What version of Umbraco are you using to create the package? And is it the same version you're installing it on? (I suppose it is but you never know :)).
Could you perhaps also post a snippet of the package XML that describes the node structure in the content tree?
At a first glance the XML looks right to me. Is there any chance you could try upgrading to 4.11.2? It has not been released in stable yet, but you can find the nightly builds here: http://nightly.umbraco.org/umbraco%204.11.2/

Hello,
I am using Umbraco 4.11.1 and yes, it is the same version I am using to install it on.
I have posted the package.xml at https://gist.github.com/0ac5715d42fb3b43b120
Thanks,

In this blogpost from last year Sebastiaan Janssen recommends that people running 4.11.1 upgrades to the latest nightlies since it fixes some unfortunate bugs http://umbraco.com/follow-us/blog-archive/2012/12/28/close,-but-no-cigar.aspx - All it takes is overwriting the /bin folder.
Hope this helps - if not I think it should be reported on the issue tracker: issues.umbraco.org/issues/U4

Hello Jan,
Thanks for the advice I will try this out to see if it works with that version.
Thanks.
