Hi there
I have two sites exactly the same each on a different server.
I exported all forms, types and views from one site to import on the other site.
Forms and types imported perfectly.
Views, however, is declaring multiple errors... I wouldn't know where to start in resolving these.
Do you think I have done something wrong or is there a problem with Views export/import?
These are the errors. And I do have the .zip file saved in a google drive folder if you want to take a look.

Hoping you can help as it will be at least a full days work to rewrite manually...
Thanks in advance!

Hi Rita,
Thank you for contacting us and I'd be happy to assist.
I'm setting your next reply as private so that you can share the export file that you're using.
Please also share the exact details about the steps you used to create this export file and to import it on a new website.
regards,
Waqar
Thank you for sharing the export file.
I can see some special characters in your website's export file, which is making the XML invalid. But, I couldn't reproduce the same while creating an export file from my test website. This suggests that something specific to your website is involved.
Have you tried exporting the views using the "Toolset Module Manager" plugin? It can be downloaded from the legacy downloads at: https://toolset.com/account/downloads/#legacy-plugins
Here is a guide on using this plugin:
https://toolset.com/documentation/legacy-features/export-import/using-toolset-module-manager/
In case the same issue persists while using this export too, we'll need a clone/snapshot of your website from where you're exporting the view, to investigate this in more depth.

Please let me know how it goes and I've set your next reply as private again.
Hi Waqar
Thank you for looking into it. I appreciate your time.
Gosh I didn't know about the legacy module manager.
I will give that a proper try first and see how it goes.
Will come back to you with a new thread if the problem persists.
Rita
