drush config-import doesn't create field tables in DB

[MatthieuScarset]

Hi

Steps to reproduce

Main site

• create a new site with the standard profile named "Main site"
• create a custom content type named "Test"
• create two custom fields named "Test" (text field) and "Test date" (date field)
• export the configuration in sync folder
• grab the site UUID drush cget"system.site" uuid

  Clone site

• create a new site with the standard profile named "Clone site"
• set the UUID to match Main site drush cget"system.site" uuid <uuidvalue_grabbed_from_mainsite>
• copy the sync folder from Main site to Clone site
• try to import the configuration drush cim

Everything seems to be working fine, as you see in the console output:

drush cim

             field.field.node.test.field_test            create
             field.field.node.test.body                  create

             core.entity_view_display.node.test.default  create
             field.field.node.test.field_test            delete
             field.field.node.test.field_test_date       delete
             field.field.node.test.field_test_email      delete
Import the listed configuration changes? (y/n): y
Cache rebuild complete.                                                                                      [ok]
The configuration was imported successfully.                                                                 [success]

But this simple export/import operation doesn't work.

Content type is imported but Fields are not created in database.

Your Drush is too old.

Ho... you're right. It's still 8.0.5, sorry.

My Drush is the one bundled with Acquia DevDesktop.

I've set the version to be 8.1.2 in its composer.json but it seems that it didn't updated correctly.

Thank you anyway.
