Converting SharePoint site from Version 2013 to 2016

In this time Microsoft did a good job with Migration SharePoint 2013 to SharePoint 2016, and within a few hours it is possible to upgrade the site from 2013 to 2016
Even the code in Visual Studio was easy to upgrade  fron VS 2013 to VS 2015 update 3 with Office package

I did this steps
  1.  Save wsp website (version 2013)
  2. Copy (backup restore) the DataBase from SQL 2012 DB 2016, and to ensure that it has sp admin privileges DB_Owner to the new DB
  3. In Central Adminstration -> Manage web applications

    a. Creating a Web Application with DB temporary
    b. Create a Site Collection
    c. Setting up the site in the hosts found in the C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\ with a local IP
  4.  Add the wsp site (Old from 2013)
    a. In powerShell -> Add-SPSolution -LiteralPath PATH
    b. Installing the solotion site (or in powerShell -> Install-SPSolution or in Central Adminstration -> System Settings -> Manage farm solutions)
  5. Remove the temporary DB site (in Central Adminstration -> Application Management -> Databases -> Manage content databases DB click on the question and select the Remove content database and click OK)
  6. Temporarily connect the DB from 2013 (Test-Mount-SPContentDatabase "DB_FROM_2013" -WebApplication "NEW_WEB_APP" in powershell)
  7. If it is good then, connect the DB from 2013 (Mount-SPContentDatabase "DB_FROM_2013" -WebApplication "NEW_WEB_APP" in powershell)
  8. Run Upgrade-SPSite -VersionUpgrade in powerShell
  9. In your own time, Do a Conversion of the wsp from 2013 to 2016 (Big code works great, this is becuse Microsoft didn't change the mapping of layouts folder - it still 15)
  10. Good Luck :)

When you try to compile a project in visual studio and get this message The specified path, file name, or both are too long. The fully qualified file name must be less than 260 characters All you need is to correct an error that VS created (and I do not know how) He has written a number of times in the " Deployment Path " "$ SharePoint.Project.FileNameWithoutExtension $ _ $ SharePoint.Feature.FileNameWithoutExtension $" Instead of one in " Deployment Path " It should be like this "YourValue_ $ SharePoint.Feature.FileNameWithoutExtension $" Yours, Roi
