[Resolved] Unable to Open Existing Projects

Hi,

I'm able to create new projects, work, save and build successfully, but I'm now running into issues trying to reopen the existing project.

The error I get points to the .sfproj file, and gives this message (the line number has changed between different projects, but the rest of the message is the same).:

error  : Name cannot begin with the '<' character, hexadecimal value 0x3C. Line 413, position 2.

The referenced line looks fine (below), so I'm not sure if the line number is referencing a different file

Hi Mark,

Is this issue happens when you're trying to open existing projects that were created in previous versions, or it also reproduces when you're trying to reopen projects that you've just created with latest version?

Can I please ask you to send an ".sfproj" file for project(s) that you're trying to open? If you're able to do so - please open the file manually in any text editor and on lines 7-9 remove your login, password and securityToken so we won't get your confidential info.

Thanks,

Vladimir

Hi Vladimir,

It was happening when creating a new project with the current version. I will re-test once the release you guys are working on now goes live, and if it still happens with a fresh project on that version, I'll follow-up with the .sfdproj file and more info.

Thanks for all of your help,

Mark

Hi Mark,

We've finally released new version, so please let me know if you'll have any problems with creating and/or opening projects in it.

Thanks,

Vladimir

Hi Vladimir,

I haven't had any problems since the new version released! I created a new project so I'm not sure if the issue was with using a project created in a previous version, but my latest project is working great.

Feel free to close - I'll let you know if it occurs again, and will send you the .sfproj file if it does.

Thanks,

Mark

Hi Mark,

It's sometimes possible that you'll have to create new project in the new version of The Welkin Suite, but we'll aim to improve backward-compatibility in the upcoming releases (and for sure it'll be maintained after we'll move out from Beta status).

Thanks,

Vladimir
