I'm trying to import Glossary records, but the Next button is inactive after selecting csv file. Steps: - go to Cobalt Import menu item - press "Select file" button - choose csv file - message "Upload completed!" displays - (cannot press Next button or Configure link)

I have tried - both .csv and .zip formats - using comma and semi-colon delimiters - browsers Chrome, IE and Edge with same result, so I'm guessing it's something to do with my upload file.

My test.csv file has one single line: 1,Test Glossary Title,Test Glossary Description

Any suggestions are greatly appreciate. Thanks.

Edit: I've found the following forum article describing the same problem, including the looping GET 404 NOT FOUND error located using Chrome / Developer tools / Network, but the article doesn't describe the solution... anyone? http://www.mintjoomla.com/support/community-forum/user-item/1611-derrick-bass/48-cobalt-8/2624.html?start=20

Regards, Randall.

Thanks for confirming my data file requires a header row, Sergey. I retried with the same result.

Looking into Chrome Developer Console I found the following, but don't know enough to understand what I'm looking at, or if it's relevant

JQMIGRATE: Migrate is installed, version 1.4.1 (jquery-migrate.min.js:2)

Error parsing a meta element's content: ';' is not a valid key-value pair separator. Please use ',' instead. (cobalt-import:108)
Failed to load resource: net::ERR_INSECURE_RESPONSE (piwik.js)
Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 (Not Found) (5051504913541.json)
GET https://www.mydomainname.com/tmp/1504913541.json?dataType=json 404 (Not Found) (cobalt-import:288) <--- this line repeats continuously

Any assistance understanding more or pointers on what to investigate would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Regards, Randall.

This list of errors tells not much. I need to click on thosee errors which will bring to the part of the code where error is. I need to see what is there.

I finally figured out how to use Chrome Dev Tools to locate the code:

Repeating error --> GET https://www.mydomainname.com/tmp/1509837934.json?dataType=json 404 (Not Found) [VM391:formatted:38] highlighted the following code line --> t.apply(u, arguments)

Can anyone provide insight into why the import functionality is not working for me? I am happy to delve into semi-technical areas, but at this point I don't know how to further troubleshoot this issue.

Import button does not work because activation of this button is done by JavaScript. But since you have JS error, JS execution is interupted.

Try to access this file https://www.mydomainname.com/tmp/1504913541.json?dataType=json in the browser and see what it shows.

When copying and pasting the json url in the browser I receive an error page with the following title: 404 - View not found [name, type, prefix]: cobalt, html, cobaltView

I have also attached the file I am trying to upload, in case there is a simple problem with the data format cobalt-test-upload

Thank you Sergey

Does anyone have steps to troubleshoot and resolve Cobalt Import issues? I am familiar with programming, but not web technologies, so I can read and follow any web guides if someone can point me in the right direction.

Alternatively, is there a step by step guide to create a very simple/generic/meaningless setup in Cobalt and steps to setup and run the Cobalt Import... just to prove that it either works or if there is a server-side problem.
