Hi

I knew there was a possibility that synctoy might overwrite the 150 cards I had just spent the whole day creating on my laptop. So I exported them before doing the sync.

When I try to import them on either my laptop or PC I receive the same error message:

An unexpected error has occurred.
Please forward the following info to the developers:
Traceback (innermost last):
File "mnemosyne\pyqt_ui\import_dlg.pyo", line 78, in accept
File "mnemosyne\libmnemosyne\file_formats\mnemosyne2_cards.pyo", line
208, in do_import
File "openSMZsync\text_formats\xml_format.pyo", line 122, in parse_log_entries
File "<string>", line 91, in next
ParseError: not well-formed (invalid token): line 1169, column 100

Please help. I really don't want to spend an whole day rewriting these cards.

Thank you

Carl

Hi,

There must be a strange character in your cards that cause the export to fail. If you send me your *.db file so that I can have a look at it to make the mechanism more robust for the future.

Also note that the *.cards file is for sharing cards with other people, so it does not contain learning info (as mentioned in the export box) and should not be used for backup purposes.

If synctoy deleted your original database file, you can have a look at the backups Mnemosyne created:

http://mnemosyne-proj.org/help/backups.php

See also here for info on Mnemosyne's own sync mechanism:

http://mnemosyne-proj.org/help/syncing

Good luck!

Peter

Hi Peter,

Thank you for the quick response and for the creation of such a wonderful
tool.

I cant send my .db file to this forum as its 15Mb. Only 8Mb is allowed.

Could I send to an email address.

Thank you for your help

Carl
