How to identify the template used to create a site..

hi Friends


I use to wonder in case solution (WSP files) when deployed on the server globally

If the solution are available the sites are also made using those solution . Now I had a Question in my mind that how could I find which templates are bening applied on the site .In case site are moved i.e server is backup is restored over a new server , Creation on new configuration database , Solution are removed etc

At last we end up in getting message

"Page not found' or "Internet Explorer could complete this request " or " Unkown Error"


I created a Aspx file usign the code snipet given below

Code Snippet [ before every tag, '--' is added, you need to remove the hyphens]

lblWebTemplateID.Text = thisWeb.WebTemplateId.ToString();
}
});

To find out how many Solutions are deployed on the server we can achieve by

Central administration > operation> solution management

We would be finding the List of WSP file or Cab files installed

To find the solution from the Configuration database to you configuration database (Eg Wss_config)

Go to the databases open the table Dbo.objects .you would be finding the List of Solution in inside the tables

Note:- Above Steps would be senario Specfic .before doing any step Its advisable to take a full farm back and Sql back up to be on safe side
