Your backup is from a different version of Microsoft SharePoint Foundation and cannot be restored
The error is clearly a version miss match error, you took the back up from a version and you are trying to restore in a different version.
A SharePoint backup should be restored on a SharePoint server farm of the same version, including important updates
First check the patch level of your source and destination environment. Make sure your destination environment is not at lower version than the source. If so , you may need to patch your environment as same as your source.
To Check the patch level open SharePoint 2010 Management Shell as administrator and type
(Get-SPFarm).BuildVersion
The Source Server
Or from central administration -> System Settings -> Manage Server In this Farm
Then type it again in destination server
Where the patch server is different ! so , you need to patch your environment as same as your source. with all hot-fix and Service Pack check this to follow the patches installed in you server
After I make it Identical the same error still appear ! so i need to Check Database Schema Versions
Steps to Check Database Schema Versions
- Open Central Administration
- Navigate to Upgrade and migration section
- Review Database Status
- It will list all database in your farm check the content database of your web application that you want to restore on it
Check the status column for each content database and if you found it database is in compatibility range and upgrade is recommended so you need to upgrade your database Click on WSS_Content and check the version
- If the Current Schema Version is less than the Maximum Schema Version, then the database should be upgraded as soon as possible.
- To Upgrade content database, Execute the below command in powershell“Upgrade-SPContentDatabase <Content_db_name>”
- After executing the command,the Current Schema Version is equal the Maximum Schema Version.
- Now you can restore without any issues.
- but it will take long time if the collection size exceed 1GB .So you can use SQL Server backup restore instead of a Restore-SPSite /backup check this post
You also can check the following post to Restore SharePoint sites without checking the build number on the farm
