Logfile for importing CSV
Posted: Fri Nov 14, 2025 5:54 am
Hello MM7DBT,
since my post under viewtopic.php?p=994#p994 will probably go unanswered and I've already found other posts along similar lines (viewtopic.php?p=896#p896), here's a suggestion:
When an import from a CSV file fails, a corresponding error message appears (invalid CSV format). However, it's impossible to see what's wrong.
In my case, for example, it's definitely not due to the column headers, because I extracted a codeplug using CPedit, exported the Channel/Zones list as a CSV, and then tried to import the same CSV (without any changes) again, only to get an error message. So something must be changing when the CSV is saved.
Since the CSV content is being checked in the background, please include not only the result of the check in the message, but also the reason for the result. Whether it's simply the error message "Error in column xy, row xy," or the complete syntax that caused the error.
