Unable to create site using saved site template SharePoint 2016

Question

We have recently migrated our SharePoint from 2010 to 2016. After that none of the site templates which we used in 2010 are working. First it throws content type name error and then I renamed the content types and when I tried to create a new site using that template it throws an error "Sorry, something went wrong An unexpected error has occurred. " When I save a site as template and try to create a site using that saved template it throws same error. When I checked the log files with the correlation id it shows the below errors . I am literally blocked all ways with no ideas on how to proceed there are tons of sites which depends on site templates. Please suggest some solutions on this.

Answer 1

Your templates from SharePoint 2010 will not work on SharePoint 2016. You must create a new template from the source (List/Library/Site) which you can then use for deployment of new assets.
