Could not find ExportSettings.xml

This familiar error occurs during the site import. While exporting you wont even see any signs of failure but you may be wondering why during the import it fails...

This is due to various reasons such as space constraint, no.of cab files generated, size of cab files...

A simple way to fix this one is: go to the export file location. Open the last and 2 cab files and you will see some xml files. Copy all the xml files.

Keep it in a temp location.

Open the windows temp folder by typing %temp% in start -> run

Run the import command.

if a new folder with guid created under windows temp folder
pause the import by pressing break button

copy all those xml files into that location

continue the import.

Import runs fine...
