Project transfer crashes EA V16 RC

[blaisephilip]

Hello everyone,
I'm having an issue just after initiating project transfer in the following setup:
Client: EA V16.0.1601
Server: Windows Server 2019 with XAMPP v3.3.0 and MySQL. The latest Pro Cloud Server is already installed but not configured yet. (shall not be an issue in my scenario)
DB Connection between client and server is working correctly. Editing other test repositories created in MySQL works without issues.

The local .EAPX file in question: ca 50 MB, content distributed in 2 root nodes, without active security features.

After start of project transfer (local->DBMS), EA crashes in 2 seconds. The log is empty. I cannot verify from the recorded network traffic the exact background of error.

If you could recommend a hint about the possible reason of such an issue, it would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Not sure if it helps, but try to upgrade to the latest EA 16 RC Build 1603 and try again.

BTW, are you using the 32 or 64bit version of EA? If you are on the 64bit version, you might need to convert the EAPX file to the new QEA(X) format before trying to transfer it.

Hello Henrik,
you were right about the 64bit version. After I've converted EAPX to QEA first, transfer to MySQL worked with EA Build 1601. Thanks!

You are welcome Glat that I could be of assistance.

Also, EA 16 64bit should not accept EAP(X) files for transfer, if it is not supported. It should either give an error message or  convert to QEA before transfer.
