Issues when trying to merge Ecoinvent3.11 and Agribalyse 3.2 ?

Question

Hello,

I need to use agribalyse 3.2 in addition to ecoinvent 3.11 for my LCA.

To do so, I followed the instructions about combining databases that I found in the OpenLCA Guide.

First, I imported both databases in OpenLCA : ecoinvent 3.11 consequential unit-processes, and agribalyse 3.2, both found on OpenLCA Nexus.

Then, I opened the ecoinvent database, and clicked on import, "import entier database" and I clicked on agribalyse.

But now, I only have the green bar going from left to right, without anything happening.

I know combining databases can be long, but how long does it usually takes ? It's been more than an hour and nothing happened.

Thank you in advance for your help

Hello, happy to answer your query.

The first thing I would try is increasing the RAM allocated to your openLCA to about 2/3 of your total RAM. You do this by going to File>Preferences>Configuration>Maximum memory usage MB.

If this doesn't work, what openLCA version are you using?

Kind regards,
