Failed to export Excel

Question

I’m using OpenLCA 2.4.1 with ecoinvent data. When I try to perform a direct calculation in the process tab and then export the results to Excel, the export fails and shows an “export failed” message. However, if I only check the first three items (skip zero values, Direct inventory contributions, Direct impact contributions) in the result options, the export to Excel works successfully. 

Answer 1

The excel files often are quite big, an export could be blocked if limited memory is available. This is shown in a log file then -> increase the available memory in openLCA and retry.
