SERP is importing something itself

what all those "done importing tag" mean?
Especially, "done importing tag "company4" starting with tag "Demo" - does it tries to import Demo???


I was stopping the server and could not stop it. Looked in the log and saw this:

Hi Aldevinas,

What you are seeing in your log is only debug information. 'Tag' is a specific part of the text backup that is inspected and imported according to any import routines.


eg. 2021-03-12 14:19:58 (-1) done importing tag "company4" starting with tag "Demo", 315081 RLinks in the database

In this particular case 'company4' is the 4th version of companies block. If the database is really importing a text backup, and the user did not ask for or want that, something else is wrong, a bit later there will be messages explaining if it really imported or only inspected.

You are worried about tag 'Demo' and we are aware of several tags that are bugs in the debug log and these tags are not necessarily imported. This is because we do NOT import unrecognised tags - they are ignored.


Good example of this is: 2021-03-12 14:19:58 (-1) done importing tag "1" starting with tag "", 315081 RLinks in the database

There is no tag '1' but this still works because we ignore it.

There is nothing to worry about unless you are seeing data corruption or other problems and in such case please report a bug and we will have a look at it.

Best Regards,
David D.

Just noticed that this happens after adding a --verbosity=debug-detailed to the parameters.txt.
Application (8.5 2021-01-13 (build 85350477) in single user mode) is not starting up, it is writing to the hansa.log.
After removing --verbosity=debug-detailed from parameters.txt, application starts normally.

Hi, No changes should have been made that would increase client's HDB file. Please try to delete HANSA.HDB from client folder and reconnect to server and check if it will grow to 30MB again. ...
