I get the following error when opening a shared file from our local server. The error is ‘Illegal char ?> at index 18’ The original file was created using a Mac and I am on pc, would that cause an issue. I am using the latest version 3.0 and the original file was created using 2.8.11
thanks.
If I were you I would rename the folder “Gantt NPIW<?>” (whatever character is at the last position) so that there were no non-latin characters.
It seems that there are issues with translating non-latin characters on the long path from your server => your OS => your Java Runtime and locale/encoding settings => GanttProject. We can start digging in, of course, but it is easier to rename.
Thank you so much, that was the issue. For some reason that character does not show up if you log into the server using a MAC. But it shows up on a PC. All is working 100%.
