Unable to Create a New Document Library or List on a site

Today a site owner wanted to create a document library on his site that had been migrated from MOSS 2007 to SharePoint 2010.  He attempted to create the doc library several ways, none of which worked:

  • Site Actions, New Document Library
  • Site Actions, More Actions
  • Libaries, Create

The problem turned out to be a Site Feature that was not activated.  To resolve this issue, I went into Site Actions, Site Settings.  Under Site Actions, select Manage site features.

Manage-site-features

Scroll down to Team Collaboration Lists and activate this feature.

 

Team-Collaboration-Lists

 

You should now be able to add Lists and Document Libraries to your site.
