Hi, one of our clients try to import data from MS Project. The file has 125Mb and export service does not support it. Is there any way we can import such files ?
Hello Wolland,
The maximal request size for the online export server is 10Mb, and you can increase it only for MSP and Primavera files up to 40Mb:
https://docs.dhtmlx.com/gantt/desktop__export_msproject.html#limitsonrequestsizeandimportoflargefiles
So, you cannot import large files with the online export server.
But if you have the standalone MSP export module, it is possible to remove that limitation.
Previously, it was an ASP.NET application that could only be installed on the Windows platform. The latest version is an .NET Core application that you can run on Windows or Linux and even inside the Docker image.
It was tested that you can import a 244Mb file, but the application will need up to 4Gb RAM for such a large file.
Hello Ramil,
Can you send us a link to this module ?
We have export_module for gantt, but this is node.js application
Hello Wolland,
There are 2 export modules with different functionalities.
- The first export module can export the data to PDF, PNG, Excel, and iCal files. It can be installed on any platform as a node.js application or as a docker image.
- The second export module can import/export MS Project and Primavera files. It is a .NET Core application that you can with the dotnet environment or inside the docker image.
You can download both of them from the Client’s Area:
If you don’t see the MSP export module in the Downloads tab, most likely, it is not included in your license, so you will need to purchase it separately:
You can contact the Sales team to discuss that question:
