I'm getting "Unable to save item 'XXX' to TCM. The process will be aborted. " in Content Porter when I try & import a component. The catch is that other components using the same schema import fine, but a couple generat this error. Any ideas?

The stack trace in the CP import log is below. This is 2013 SP1

2014/09/05 11:20:16 <197> [Error] Tridion.ContentManager.InvalidXmlException: Unable to find uuid:XXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX:Metadata. at Tridion.ContentManager.IdentifiableObject.AssertValidRootContentElement(XmlElement rootElement, XmlSchemaSet schemaSet, XmlQualifiedName expectedRootElementName) at Tridion.ContentManager.ContentManagement.Component.AssertValidRootContentElements(XmlSchemaSet xmlSchemaSet, String rootElementName, String rootTargetNamespace) at Tridion.ContentManager.IdentifiableObject.ValidateXml(Schema schema, XmlElement content, Repository repository) at Tridion.ContentManager.ContentManagement.RepositoryLocalObject.ValidateXml() at Tridion.ContentManager.ContentManagement.Component.ValidateXml() at Tridion.ContentManager.ContentManagement.RepositoryLocalObject.OnSaving(SaveEventArgs eventArgs) at Tridion.ContentManager.ContentManagement.VersionedItem.OnSaving(SaveEventArgs eventArgs) at Tridion.ContentManager.ContentManagement.Component.OnSaving(SaveEventArgs eventArgs) at Tridion.ContentManager.IdentifiableObject.Save(SaveEventArgs eventArgs) at Tridion.ContentManager.ContentManagement.VersionedItem.Save(Boolean checkInAfterSave) at Tridion.ContentManager.ImportExport.Process.<>c__DisplayClass2.b__1(Boolean isRetry) at Tridion.ContentManager.ImportExport.AbortErrorHandler.Invoke[T](Func2 function, LocalizableMessage message, Boolean retryAvailable, Boolean isCritical, UserReply additionalUserReplyOptions) at Tridion.ContentManager.ImportExport.Process.InvokeInErrorHandler[T](Func2 function, LocalizableMessage message, Boolean retryAvailable, Boolean isCritical) at Tridion.ContentManager.ImportExport.ImportAction.SaveItem(IdentifiableObject item, IdentifiableObjectData deltaObject) at Tridion.ContentManager.ImportExport.CreateImportAction.Perform(IdentifiableObjectData itemData) at Tridion.ContentManager.ImportExport.Importer.ImportItem(WebDavUrl exportUrl, IList1 dependentItemsChain, Dictionary2 unresolvedDependencies, Boolean specialImport) at Tridion.ContentManager.ImportExport.Importer.ImportItem(WebDavUrl exportUrl, IList1 dependentItemsChain, Dictionary2 unresolvedDependencies, Boolean specialImport) at Tridion.ContentManager.ImportExport.Importer.ImportItem(WebDavUrl exportUrl, IList1 dependentItemsChain, Dictionary2 unresolvedDependencies, Boolean specialImport) at Tridion.ContentManager.ImportExport.Importer.ImportItems(IList`1 items, Boolean specialGroupImport) at Tridion.ContentManager.ImportExport.Importer.Import(String packageName)

So the key error in this stack is

Unable to find uuid:XXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX:Metadata

It looks like your component(s) either have metadata that doesn't exist in the schema anymore, or don't have mandatory metadata that exists in the schema.

    Thanks. I was able to resolve this by opening the components on the source CM and saving. I think what happened is that the ones with the issue were created before we added metadata to the schema.

  • If the metadata did not have mandatory fields, I think the option in Content Porter to "Synchronize Content with Schema" would have fixed this.
