(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?
(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.
During Import of XER file the appication is intercepted. Then it is not possible to start P6 at all.
Log file:
Bad Data Row for table UDFTYPE
UDF_TYPE_ID = 828
TABLE_NAME = TASK
UDF_TYPE_NAME = user_field_828
UDF_TYPE_LABEL = OLD_MS_UID
LOGICAL_DATA_TYPE = (null)
SUPER_FLAG = (null)
INDICATOR_EXPRESSION = (null)
SUMMARY_INDICATOR_EXPRESSION = (null)
I understand that it could be something wrong with the XER file but really surpriseby that P6 is so unstable. It is absolutelly abnormal that one bad import can kill the whole sysem.
It is something easy to fix or the only way is to re-install P6?

It is an XER issue, not a P6 issue. The XER file contained bad data, preventing P6 from importing to avoid data corruption. It is an easy fix if you know how to read XER using a normal text editor, XER manager, or XER parser. You just need to remove the UDF type and UDF value that is causing the error. If you wish, you can send me your XER, and I can fix it for you.
