I have a CSV file I am trying to import form a legacy project. Has about 25000 tags in it, and when I import, it gives me the following error.

Host is Ubuntu 9.10, 64 Bit  
Java 1.6 u 15 i think

Was the CSV out created with an old/beta version of Ignition?

Those “[false,GOOD\_DATA]” should just be “false”. Or, more correctly, any “[_,GOOD\_DATA]" should be just "_”.

If this was created with the current version of Ignition, we’ll need to fix it. But, we did already fix some issues with this several weeks ago, so that’s why I ask about the version.

Regards,

Just a follow up, that data does not exist in the CSV file. IA is looking into it.
