Hi all, this is my first time here on forum (since I've never had any problems with FET), but now I'm seriously panicking: I'm creating a timetable for my school, and I have a .fet file opened on my computer. It's saved on my cloud and today I tried to access it on my other computer. It returned an error message: "Could not read file - XML parse error at line 5483, column 11:
Duration is incorrect". I tried to open it on the same computer that it's already opened at, and it returned same error message. So I can basically change things on my .fet file because it's opened on one computer, bu I can't do that on any other computer (but I really need to do that). I tried changing a name but it gave me same error message when I tried to open it. What did I do wrong? What can I do now? HELP!!!!
Are you using the latest FET?
Please send the file to my email address (listed on my personal page, or another alias is listed on FET contacts page).
This error appears if in the .fet XML FET file the <Duration> of an activity is <=0. I don't know why this happened, but we will investigate, if you send the file as above and tell me what do you think you did before the error.
Added: Please save a copy of your file (as it is now, even if incorrect) on a memory stick or something (make a backup), so you won't lose your work. Or, even better, save it in more places.
Thank you, I'm sending the file as I type.
And yes, I am using latest FET on all my computers (I have set all my FET on automatic update search on startup).
OK, it seems that Malamojka imported a CSV file for activities with an activity having duration 0. Puzzle solved :)
We may add a check for this in the future, but I am not sure (there are too many cases to analyze).
I added a new snapshot (see the forum Snapshots section). Thank you for suggesting! The check will be added in the new FET versions.
Please check that now you don't import an activity with duration 0.
