Restore error: "There are no more files" + COM error 0x80070012

Published 14 January 09 02:19 PM | shawnfel 

I was recently doing an stsadm –o restore to restore a backup and was able to successfully move my production site collection backup to test.  When i went to the site it mostly worked with the exception of one subsite.  One subsite was returning a COM error "There are no more files" with a COM error code 0x80070012.

When i investigated it more most of the site was working with the exception of the Pages.  My guess was that the pages lost their association to the Page Layouts when i moved the site. 

I solved this by deleting all of the pages and recreating them. 

Hope this helps someone.

Hi,

this maybe can help me. but how did you deleted all pages and recreating them?

Thank you for all!

you might want to try restoring from sql backup instead of stsadm backups, this worked for me after i initially encountered this problem.  I had a utility that was capable of recreating my pages which i'm guesing you don't have.

Hi,

What utility did you use to recreate the pages? I'm in the same position. I restored files to sharepoint a few months ago. Only recently we found corrupted entries. Unfortunately, the old restore files have been since overwritten. How do I recreate?

Thanks,

Paul

I built my own utility that was xml based and had an xml map of what web parts are where.  It only worked since i had originally created all the pages as part of a development effort.  Have you tried restoring from SQL backup?  That ended up working for me and i didn't have to run my "custom built" utility.

Hi,

I take a weekly full farm backup, then nightly site backups. These are on a weekly rotation. One of my users deleted tonnes of information and I ran a site restore using stsadm -o restore function. Everything appeared to be fine. It wasn't until a few weeks later, that some links to files nested in a document library had invalid links in that I realised there was a problem. Unfortunately, the full farm and nightly backups have since been overwritten by recent backups. So, up the smelly creak without a paddle at the moment.

Thanks for the reply though. Any other thoughts I'd love to hear.

Hello All

Last week I got the same Error while restoren a Sitebackup (via stsadm) on my Developmentserver. A whole Subsite was inkonsistent und produced Errors like "There is no file with URL...". After lots of investigation I found the error in the Relationshipslinklist due to lots of Misconfiguration in the GroupID-Column. After I corrected these I could restore a fresh backup without any problems!

Hope it helps (well the thread maybe outdated but could help others as well)

Greetings

Michael
