SharePoint Online Modern Site - Home Page will not open

Hi, I have been creating team sites without a O365 group for months without issues. Now when I create a site using this template, the site creates but I cannot open the home page. I get this error. 

 

All the content of site is there if I use _layouts/15/viewlsts.aspx after the URL. 

 

I can create a new home page but it isn't in the modern look and feel, just the classic which is not what I want. 

 

Can anyone help?

    what kind of provisioning and templates do you use?

     

    I recommend you to create a new template and try again. 

     

    Best, Dave

      DaveMehr365 Hi Dave thank you for responding. This is the template I use and it is used across all our site collections. 

       

       

      The only thing I can think of that caused a change is the following:

       

      I used Sharegate,the migration tool to copy over a site from a different site collection. I am thinking it might have changed something within this site template and now it isn't compatible with the environment it is in. 

      How do I get a fresh 'Team Site - no Microsoft 365' group template? 

      • Hello laceyk

         

        your PrintScreen looks like an older classic way. Use the new modern way in M365 to create new sites.

        This is a default M365 template.

         

        It's correct, you have create a new site and migrate the whole structure, included lists, libraries and content, to your new site with ShareGate?

         

        What, when you create a site and migration only content?

        Or activate the modern content type /site page and create a new, modern, page and make it as homepage. I think then works your site.

         

        Regards, Dave
