How to export/import Projects?

Question

If I export a Project (with related Product system and processes) and import it to another database (by JSOM-LD) the imported Project calculates only zero impacts.

I tried to backup the whole database and restore it (by zolca) but again, the Project does not calculate results in the restored database.

I found some old questions on this issue from 2018, but I have not found clear answers.

I work in openLCA 1.11.0.

My only solution at the moment is to copy and paste the entire folder of the database but I wonder if this issue can be solved also by zolca or JSON-LD when Projects are transferred to another computer.

Please let me know.

Thanks

Hi Balasz SARA,

sounds weird. And the respective product system also gives zero impacts? Try to export them and import them into an empty database (with the respective impact assessment method). There should be no issue then. Updating openLCA to a newer version might also help.

Hope this helps,
