<p>Hi,</p> <p>Ok, I think the problem is that the LAR file you exported there is a portlet type LAR file that contains all the data from the <em>Navigation Menus</em> portlet. That won't work in your code as that is for layouts. You can use LAR file that has been exported from a site, site temple, or page template.</p> <p>Regards,</p> <p>Zsigmond</p>

<p>Hi Daniel,</p> <p>That may come if the LAR type is not one of the predifined ones, &quot;layout-prototype&quot;, &quot;layout-set&quot; or &quot;layout-set-prototype&quot;. You could debug on the code level to see what is coming during processing the LAR.</p> <p>Otherwise, knowing where on the Control Panel you generated the LAR file exactly or a step by step description of what your trying may help to find the problem.</p> <p>Zsigmond</p>

<p>Hi,</p> <p>First of all, thanks for the help. I was able to create exportIMport configuration with you link, but when I try to import, I received a </p> <pre> com.liferay.exportimport.kernel.exception.LARTypeException</pre> <p>The file which I am trying to import is a lar file generated from the control panel, and not modified. Do you have any idea wy this is happening?<br /> <br /> Thanks!</p> <p>Regards</p>

<p>Hi Daniel,</p> <p>Have you tried the examples that you can find in the portal source?</p> <p>For example: <a href="https://github.com/liferay/liferay-portal/blob/master/portal-impl/src/com/liferay/portal/events/ServicePreAction.java#L225-L266">https://github.com/liferay/liferay-portal/blob/master/portal-impl/src/com/liferay/portal/events/ServicePreAction.java#L225-L266</a></p> <p>Can that work to you?</p> <p>Regards,</p> <p>Zsigmond</p>

<p>Hi,</p> <p>I am trying to import programatically a navigation menu from one site to another. I export from the control panel the file from origin site, and then I recover it from database with this:</p> <pre> <code class="language-java"> configuration = ExportImportConfigurationLocalServiceUtil.getExportImportConfiguration(siteId); file = ExportImportLocalServiceUtil.exportLayoutsAsFile( configuration );</code></pre> <p>Now I am trying to import to other file with this</p> <pre> <code class="language-java">ExportImportLocalService.importLayouts(ExportImportConfiguration exportImportConfiguration, File file) </code></pre> <p>but I don't know how to create the new ExportImportConfiguration object. Could anyone help me?<br /> <br /> Thanks in advance</p> <p>Regards,</p>
