Describe the bug / error

Enable-SPOCommSite : The operation cannot be performed because the publishing feature is enabled on the site, or it was in the past. For more information, see https://spo.ms/EnableCommSite.

Steps to reproduce

1.Connect to site Connect-SPOServer -URL $AdminCenterURL 2.Enable-spoCommSite -siteUrl $siteURL 3.Have read that removing the pages library fixes this but there is only the site pages library present. This is a sharepoint 2013 subsite with a site template applied to it that has been migrated to SharePoint Online

Expected behavior

I would expect the site to be converted to a modern comms site with a new homepage.
