How do I import Studio customizations?

[djg]

I exported my Studio changes (layouts plus Custom fields) so that another developer can use them on a development machine running another instance of Sugar CRM.

Can anyone indicate how to import the .zip file created above?

thx,

d.

Which version did you use?
in 4.5.1 you can export and import in Studio - migrate custom fields
in 5.0.0 you can use the module loader to import your own modules which you exported in studio

Thank you for your response.

I am using 5.0.0b, and just found the same answer in the doc.


thanks again,

Hi, djg

If you export the customization from a system and try to import that into another system (same 5.0) it should work for sure.
If this is not working, please tell us exactly is broken, if possible tell us the exact version and provide the installer.

Cheers

André,

Thanks for your message.

Here is what I did (reconfirmed on Patch C):

On System A (5.0.0c):

Admin -> Studio : Export

.zip archive created

On system B (5.0.0c):

Admin -> Module Loader : Browse

File name field goes blank after clcking Upload.

Hi, djg.

Are both system in the same machine?
Have the php.ini the same configuration?
Do you have access to the log of apache?

These information can clarify the issue.

Hi André,

In answer to your questions:

Are both system in the same machine? NO
Have the php.ini the same configuration? I don't understand the question.
Do you have access to the log of apache? I think so - can you tell me how to get these?

Hi, djg.

php.ini is the configuration file for php.

You can find it creating a php script if this content:

 <?php
phpinfo();
?>  

Call this script through the browser, one of the first lines will tell where the php.ini is located.
You can compare their configuration and check specially the max_upload_size or something like that, also the post_max_size, or something like that.

The log of apache will show errors derived from php run.
If you use linux then it is located into /var/log/apache/error.log

Cheers

André,

Both installations were made using the stack installer, so the php.ini files are identical.
