SharePoint 2007 Object Model: How can I make a new site collection, move the original main site to b
- by program247365
Here's my current setup:
one site collection on a SharePoint 2007 (MOSS Enterprise) box (32 GB total in size)
one main site with many subsites (mostly created from the team site template, if that matters) that is part of the one site collection on the box
What I'm trying to do*:
*If there is a better order, or method for the following, I'm open to changing it
Create a new site collection, with a main default site, on same SP instance (this is done, easy to do in SP Object Model)
Move rootweb (a) to be a subsite in the new location, under the main site
Current structure:
rootweb (a)
\
many sub sites (sub a)
What new structure should look like:
newrootweb(b)
\
oldrootweb (a)
\
old many sub sites (sub a)
Here's my code for step #2:
Notes:
* SPImport in the object model under SharePoint.Administration, is what is being used here
* This code currently errors out with "Object reference not an instance of an object", when it fires the error event handler

Here is the code calling the above method:
