Hi all,
due to a change of business units in our organization, we needed to change site addresses of some sites (around 50) because our URLs relay on a naming convention including a short for business unit.
One of these Sites was a HUB-Site and three of them were associated to that HUB.
We removed the HUB registration from the HUB-Site by UI in Admin-Center which removed the association to the three other sites also.
If I then tried to change the Site-URL of the previous mentioned HUB-Site, UI and Console had errors. - OK, I know there is a delay sometime, so i waited until the next day and did a retry.
Now, changing the site address was working.
Then I tried to change the site address of the three other sites, which were previously associated to the HUB.
The UI and even the console are telling me, that I cannot change the site address, because this site is a HUB site and I should deregistster this site as a HUB-Site:
This happens to all three sites if I try to change the site address.
NONE of these sites have ever been a HUB-Site!
The console has two errors regarding this action.
First means "no renaming order for the site":
Second is "This site is already a Hubsite":
If I view the three site in admin center they are shown without any association:
If i Open up the Details-Panel, I can see 'None' for Hub Association:
If I then click Edit, the DropDown is empty, but here should "None"
Even if I try to change the site address by PS with
Start-SPOSiteRename and parameter -ValidationOnly, I get the same error message, that this site is a Hubsite, which is of course not true:
Does anybody run into the same issue and may have a solution?
Thx, Ronny
