Question

Unable to import databases ( "Import Wizard" JSON-LD browser unable to open, e.g., IMPACT+ files which are grey)

Comments

meaning, I am unable to highlight the zolca files I downloaded, and so can not import them

Answer 1

I think I understand now; the file selection dialogues in openLCA (which we take from the Eclipse IDE) are a bit confusing, you cannot see files, just select the folder, once you accept the folder you see the files in a next step.

(zolca are entire openLCA databases, import them via "restore" or via "import entire database"; JSON-LD is an LCA format which stores files in a directory structure, and packs all in one zip file)

OK! so using "import entire database" worked. FYI, the instructional video from the website, dated 2014, clearly instructs to use JSON-LD. This needs to be updated.  Thanks for your help!

Good - and I can say that we plan now to update the videos "at large"..
