I have followed steps mentioned here, but unable to sync items to local sitecore instance

Sitecore Unicorn Sync Issue

Gulp Config: 

var instanceRoot = "C:\\inetpub\\wwwroot\\SC82";

websiteRoot= instanceRoot + "\\Website";

habitat Dev settings: 

<sc.variable name="sourceFolder" value="C:\Users\Habitat-master\src" />
<sc.variable name="rootHostName" value="SC82" />

Publishing Targets: 

<publishUrl>http://SC82</publishUrl>

Predicate Config:

<predicate type="Unicorn.Predicates.SerializationPresetPredicate, Unicorn" singleInstance="true"> <include database="master" path="/sitecore/content"> <exclude path="/sitecore/content/" /> </include> <include name="Home" database="master" path="/sitecore/layout/Controllers/Home" /> <include name="Layout.Layouts" database="master" path="/sitecore/layout/Layouts/" /> <include name="Layout.Models" database="master" path="/sitecore/layout/Models/" /> <include name="Layout.PlaceholderSettings" database="master" path="/sitecore/layout/Placeholder Settings/" /> <include name="Layout.Renderings.Project" database="master" path="/sitecore/layout/Renderings/" /> <include name="System.Dictionary.Project" database="master" path="/sitecore/system/Dictionary/" /> <include name="System.Languages" database="master" path="/sitecore/system/Languages" /> <include name="System.Workflows" database="master" path="/sitecore/system/Workflows" /> <include name="Templates.Project" database="master" path="/sitecore/templates/" /> <include name="System.HtmlEditorProfiles" database="core" path="/sitecore/system/Settings/Html Editor Profiles/" /> </predicate>

Error: Cannot perform initial serialization because the predicate configuration is including item paths which do not exist in the database.

Can someone help on this issue?. Thanks in Advance

Have you run the default task in "Task Runner explorer"? imgur.com/a/vhXAO - Dheeraj Palagiri
Yes. Everything went well till 5th Task (Sync Unicorn). Logs it could see ["Unable to resolve serialized item for included root path master:/sitecore/system/Settings/Feature. The item does not exist in Serialization File System Data Store. It has been skipped. Perhaps you need to perform an initial serialization from the control panel?". - Siva Sankar
have you changed rootHostName in \Project\Common\code\App_Config\Include\Project\common.website.config? - Dheeraj Palagiri
I have tried to update root hostname also but same issue appears. Any other settings need to be checked? - Siva Sankar

Manully run following unicorn sync url to see what's error you'll get. {Your local host url}/unicorn.aspx?verb=Sync&configuration=&skipTransparentConfigs=0

Also, make sure install the "Web Forms for Marketers 8.2" because Habitat uses it.
