Asked by ulpu on 2016-11-21

Ciao,
when trying to export a Collect Earth survey from Collect, I get the following error		
		
Error generating file: Index: 3, Size: 3

Can you tell what's going wrong, thanks.

Hi Ulpu,  
Can you share with us the log files *c:\opt\openforis\collect\tomcat\logs\catalina.out* and *c:\opt\openforis\collect\tomcat\webapps\collect\logs\collect.log* together with the survey in Collect Desktop format?  
Thanks,  
Open Foris Team

Hi Open Foris Team

I noticed that a code list level I removed earlier was still present in schema. That was causing the issue.

Thanks for the quick reply anyway!

Hi Ulpu,  
We will prevent this kind of errors in the next release of OF Collect.
