So i had imported a HEAP of project files onto a gateway as I was unable to upload to the gateway (Larger Than 21mb… Waiting on their IT department to change the settings so i can)…
So i imported the project files into a new project and attempted to save… (It does say saved but it hasnt)
119mB is a huge project - there’s not usually anywhere near that much content in a project.
You pretty much only hit large file sizes like that for one reason: serialized binary data.
Are you storing any images or other resources in the project in some way? Any large history binding datasets set to ‘Retain Rows’?
If this is 8.0.x, you could manually drop the appropriate files onto the filesystem of the gateway directly.
If it’s 7.9, you could try placing the .proj files on the local filesystem, then remoting in, launching a designer (on the gateway itself) and restoring the project?
