[OPEN-ILS-DEV] Help with expectedvaluesinvandelay.import_item_attr_definition?

[Peters, Michael]

Dan,

I hear you.  Sadly, we're not due for an upgrade until 2.0.  I'll give this the same try on my 2.0 Beta 4 server...

Sincerely,

Hello Michael,

Things have certainly changed a lot since 1.6.0.0.  For example, we couldn't get import to work at all before this changeset (which made it into 1.6.0.1):

http://svn.open-ils.org/trac/ILS/changeset/15356 

I would try to at *least* upgrade to 1.6.0.3 or 1.6.0.4, as quite a few significant bugs got squashed early on.

Dan
