SharePoint 2007: Content Deployment Colloboration Portal

Problem: SharePoint 2007 Content Deployment (B2TR to RTM) of Collaboration Portal Template fails with unable to find publishing root site feature.

Solution:

1) Copy PremiumRootSite and PremiumRootSiteStapling folders from B2TR to RTM machine (for some reason these features are not available on RTM machine. i haven't tried but my alternate guess is it that enabling enterprise features from central admin-> operations screen may provide these features)

Note: Site features folder is located at "\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Service Extensions\12\Template\Features".

2) Install features using stsadm

stsadm -o installfeature -filename PremiumRootSite\feature.xml
stsadm -o installfeature -filename PremiumRootSiteStapling\feature.xml

3) Activate features

stsadm -o activatefeature -name PremiumRootSite
stsadm -o activatefeature -name PremiumRootSiteStapling
