  • To avoid unpacking errors, you must avoid the following special characters (/, ?, &, \, <, >, :, |, #, @, %, and ') and key combinations (such as ALT+number) in your site name. The site name is appended to your database names, and special characters or key combinations can corrupt these names.
  • Do not specify a Site Name of more than 127 single-byte or double-byte characters.
  • Do not name your site "Commerce." This is a reserved OLAP database name. Naming your site "Commerce" could lead to the deletion of your OLAP database the next time you unpack a site.
