Importing a Nesstar DDI File

[pierre adisp]

Hi
I am trying to import Nesstar DDI File( Utilities - Import ) But i got
this error
    Import failed: An unexpected error occurred trying to import this study.
    Exception message: null
    'form1:tabSet1:0:tabSetUtilities:0:inputImportFileComponent' SUCCESS

Is it possible to import Nesstar file?

Best regards

In case anyone is wondering... the short answer is "no" but we've been
exchanging lots of emails internally and will try to post a summary to
the list.

Hi Pier!

We're starting* to mark threads on this Google Group as "Completed"
and I'm *think* you got an answer to your question in an internal
ticket (#173539). Would you be able to summarize for the benefit of
others on this list? Should we mark this thread "Completed"?

Thanks!

Phil

Great! That's good enough for me to "mark as complete" this thread. :)

I'm glad it works for you.

And if anyone needs the details, please ask us about
https://help.hmdc.harvard.edu/Ticket/Display.html?id=173539

This seems to be what helped you the most:

"My understanding is the current issue is that you need a way to
select a value for Handle Registration on the Create a Harvesting
Dataverse page?

Normally this represents a domain or namespace registered with the
handle net service but if you are not enabling handle registration, it
can be any local identifier.

So, to populate this select list, add a row to the handleprefix table
in the database. The id column should just be simple numbers: 1,2,3,
etc. and the prefix column is the identifier that will appear in the
select list."
