Creating new baseline fails - no error code

[leandroaveiro]

Hello,

I'm trying to create a baseline here. By the end of the process, I have no baseline and no error message. This is how my project browser looks like:

. Root Model
.  . View
.  .  .  List of packages (about 20).

All packages are version controlled through SVN.

This is what I'm doing to create the baseline:
1) Right-click the View -> Package Control - Manage Baselines
2) New Baseline
3) Version 1.0 and some comments on "Note" field. Include sub-packages checked.
4) OK.

EA automatically starts exporting everything to a .tmp file in a temporary folder. After a while, the export package dialog closes and I'm back to an empty "Manage Baselines" dialog. No error information and no baseline.

I've tried creating a baseline on individual packages, and that works, so it looks like a size issue (the amount of data I have is pretty big). So I went into mysql configuration and set global variable "max_allowed_packet" to 1GB, which is the maximum amount allowed. It didn't change anything.

I also tried using a parent package, instead of a View. It doesn't work either.

Weird thing is progress bar in the the export package dialog gets to say "Formatting output XML, please wait", and then "Export complete".
That's when it closes and takes me back to the manage baselines dialog with no baseline.

Any help is appreciated!

Thank you!

Here's my configuration:
Windows XP SP3
MySQL Server 5.5
MySQL ODBC Driver 5.1
Subversion 1.5 (compiled from r3036)
Enterprise Architect 9.3.930 (Build 930) - Unicode

Have you tried a manual XMI export?

Yes. It works... and besides, I want to be able to diff current packages against the baseline.

That sounds like you should contact Sparx support (link bottom right). I haven't read anything alike here in the forum.

Diff is possible (recently even graphically if I remember right, but I'm not sure). Myself I did not use XMI comparison since it always failed in the past. It got better but there are still a few quirks so I did not touch it recently.

Thanks! Will try.
