Title: XMI import problem
Post by: kayani on July 18, 2007, 05:24:18 pm

I'm trying to load a package from a large XMI file in EA but it inconsistently generates various error messages i.e. "DAO.Database[3035] System resource exceeded", "DAO.Database[3052] File Sharing lock count exceeded, Increase ...". When i load the package from several small XMI files (exported for sub-packages) it works fine but for complete package with a big XMI file it just crashes every time. Is there any maximum model or file size limit known in this scenario?
The problem persists in both 6.5 and 7 versions.

hi,
I'm working a windows 10 machine with EA 13 installed and I have the issue of the XMI import of a 150 MB file.
I tried to modify the registry but the key
SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Jet\4.0\Engines\Jet 4.0
described here
https://support.microsoft.com/en-ca/help/198633/you-receive-an-file-sharing-lock-count-exceeded-error-message-when-you

is not present on my system

idea?
thanks

BTW, the original model is on a SQL server, what I'm looking for is to have a "portable version" of it, this is why I need an EAP file.

If you don't have that key present in the registry then create it and try the import again.

I think you'll find the key in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\...

In that case you are better off using model transfer.
Much faster and less error prone then xmi import/export.

+10  We snapshot our corporate repository using project transfer every night.  A 600Mb output file takes about 10 mins.

Although the Microsoft support article doesn't mention it, I needed to restart Windows before the larger MaxLocksPerFile value seemed to take effect. Once I'd done that, all good. FWIW.

(I was getting those pesky DAO errors pasting a diagram.)
