How to export and import Portal Page in Websphere Portal 6.1.5

I want to setup Portal pages on my WebSphere Portal Server (WPS), which were already setup by someone else on his desktop. I have tried with the Export Portal page feature to export the Portal page from my colleague's desktop. exportPage.xml is created. I tried importing the same on my WPS, using Import XML feature. But gives below error

An error occurred while retrieving the resource with object ID 3_G5UKGAEUGB8B50A64RRL3H10N7. [portletinstance 5_G5UKGAEUGB8B50A64RRL3H1OO1]

The portlet reference ID which this XML is pointing to is present on my WPS.

i.e. I have deployed the same EAR ( which contains the set of portlets ) which my colleague has deployed on his WPS.

What could be the solution ? This export / import saves a lot of time in setting up a new environment.

Do you have any theme associated to the pages? – Michael

You have to identify the issue first. If there is no additional information about the issue inside of WAS_HOME/wp_profile/logs/WebSphere Portal/SystemOut.log you should enable traces using WebSphere Portal console for XMLAccess com.ibm.wps.services.xml.*=finest more information should be in WAS_HOME/wp_profile/logs/WebSphere Portal/trace.log and give you more insight

I just tried similar steps without an issue. The way you used it sounds reasonable
