Finding the correct SharePoint solution to deploy to eliminate missing features

Question

So this is a bit of a vague question and I apologize but here goes nothing.

I am in the process of creating a SP2013 test farm that is an exact copy of our SP2010 production farm. When I mount the main content db for our main site collection I get a missing feature ID error. Here is the problem I need help with...

The solution that should have this feature is deployed to the farm already, however, as I was not working here when these solutions were made I don't know if I'm deploying the correct .wsp file. There are about 8 revisions so I naturally deployed the latest one.

So... 1. Would feature ID's change from version to version? 2. Is there a way to see which .wsp is deployed to my production farm.

Thanks for any help!

Answer 1

Featuer ID will not change from version to version. you can see installed features from template/feature folder under SharePoint Hive (either 15 or 14 hive based on your sharepoint version).

Hope this helps.
