Importing eln file multiple times

[HTsybenko]

1. Create a project.
2. Add items (non-file items or files)
3. Export as .eln file
4. "Configuration- Start analyze and repair"
5. Import the eln file
6. Import the eln file again
7. Open an item in the editor, add a comment and save

After the last step: **ERROR: could not update document. Likely version conflict.

pastaELN issue.log

[HTsybenko]

Interestingly, the issue does not occur when the "Configuration- Start analyze and repair" is not executed (exported project is still present, when its eln file is imported). In this case, the eln file overwrites the original project. #

This case should also be discussed, since data may be lost in the process.

Interesting and we need to solve it down the road.
