I have a authoring and production environment in same farm environment. I created a path and Job to migrate content from my authoring publishing site to production publishing site. The production site was created using the publishing template.
To fix above problem, I had to delete the production site and recreate it using the blank site template.
Its all working fine now….

Use the error log to narrow down to what list it was complaining about. Delete that list from the production server and run a deploy (I did an incremental). This fixed it from me.
Hi Gayan -
Thanks for your post. I was having the same issue and your recommendation did the trick!
Stupid bug from Microsoft. If on the authoring server you have a file say test.aspx and you delete it, and later add it again, the content deployment will give you this error. So the moral is, don't delete content and recreated it because the developers from Microsoft think this cannot happen.
Actually the best solution is to do a quick deploy of these items. The error appears if you do an incremental deployment. Quick deploy does not have this bug.
Quick deployment does have this bug. I have tried several times to narrow this down. I'm inteseted in the comment by anonymous on using the error log to narrow down the problem list or library. What error log are you refering too. I have review what I think are all the logs OS Event, SP logs and all refer to the exception but don't document the problem list or library.
Has this been fixed with Service Pack 1?
This has not been properly fixed in SP1.
If you haven't installed it yet, don't. It's not worth the risk unless it's absolutely necessary and it won't fix this deployment bug.
Gayan's fix worked for me as well. It is strange to me being a Newbie that you can't create the site using the template that is was using previously... but not going to complain... Thanks Gayan!
Content Deployment is a joke - if I had to choose between root canal and Content Deployment, I'd choose root canal.
Yep, root canal first. However creating a new collection based on blank template worked for me. Then when it was deployed it implemented the template that was needed. Go figure. Thanks a million.

has a possible solution for this problem.
Excellent! Thanks for this - I've been looking at this feature for ages. Followed your instructions and it works a treat!
i can confirm too that it really works thanks
