    Hi,

    A few questions.

    Have you done any customization to the sitemap on the CRM 4-org?
    How did you migrate the organization?
    What UR is installed on the CRM 4?
    What UR is installed on the CRM 2011?

    Regards

    Hi

    1. As far as i know there is no any customization installed (but how can look it?)
    2. I migrate in the standard way: install new server (CRM+SQL) in new domain (out test env) and do "Import Organization" (restore backup of CRM4.0 DB on the new SQL server, database name is the same as was on old SQL server) (There are two warnings appears: about fragmented indexes - i can fix it over SQL script, and "The organization database selected for import is a different version than the organization database that is currently deployed." - i don't know what should i do with it... Than i just press "Import' button)

    3. CRM 4.0 UR 21 (version 4.0.7333.3822)

    4. CRM 2011 UR 11 (version 5.0.9690.2839)

    thanks advance

    You'll probably have to raise a call with Microsoft Support about your issue.

    from Your stacktrace it seems there are some issues regarding codepage, encoding, XML of some kind.

    What base language does your CRM 4 have and is that language available on the CRM 2011? A long shot but Roar's idea is along those lines so it might be worth checking. Also install all MUIs available on the CRM4 server on your new server.
