Question

Failed to Set up Database

1

Hello I am new with Mendix and try to make my first app with “App from a spreadsheet”. But uploading the data sheet from Excel does not work successfully, see picture (3x already). After “continue without data” all entities and attributes are within the app but the app stays within “Checks” What’s wrong? Thanks!

There must be somthing in the Excel sheet that Mendix does not like. Could it be that there are diacritic characters inside? I seem to recall there could be some issues in the latest version of Mendix with such characters. You might try cleaning those up before doing the import.

Regards,

Ronald

Thanks! I have tried already to take out some Characters. Now I tried also to work with the excel sheet out of the Learning Path (Build an App from an Excel Spreadsheet) and this also does no work.
