Partial import on version 2.5.2

Hello,
I just updated my raspberry pi to version 2.5.2 dated 2021-03-05. Prior to updating the version I was routinely exporting and importing ADIFS between two machines. This included importing an ADIF file of >10,000 contacts, I never experienced any issues. After updating to 2.5.2 when I attempt to import an ADIF containing about 14,000 contacts (with the "ADIF file contains more than 10,000 QSO" marked), the program only imports 175 contacts then says import complete, it also indicated no errors. I tried this multiple times on two different machines and got the same result. Do I have a setting wrong? I also imported my configuration I was using from the previous version of the program prior to trying to import. Any advice would be appreciated.

Partial import on version 2.5.2

Hi Kevin!

This is interesting.
I made full adif export from my log nearly 11k qsos. Then created a new log and imported adif. All qsos were imported. import count and qso count at "QSO list" were equal. This was done with Fedora 32 laptop.

Then I moved same adif file to my rpi4 with sftp. Checked qso count to be same at both ends by counting EORs ( grep EOR test.adif | wc -w ) They were same.
Then I made new log to rpi4's cqrlog and imported adif. Import reported 8,3k qsos and that was also qso count in "QSO list view".

I repeated import with "over 10000 qsos" checked and unchecked. Same result.
Then I divided adif file to two parts and tried to import them. Same result.

Noticed that also two parts import stopped to same qso as last imported one. Then I opened the adif file with text editor (used console editor "mc").
Searched for last call in log (was UA3GAF) and found that qso record.
Then next record after it has garbage in tags "NAME_INTL" and "QTH_INTL". First I removed whole qso record and then tried to import adif.
That went ok and all 11k qsos were in log.

Next I edited again original adif file and removed just those two tags from that qso record. That was enough. I got the qso in log without name anq qth with all other 11k qsos.

It seems that rpi stops import in that case while Fedora32 does not care that garbage. Both have UTF-8 settings.

So look the last imported qso. It is the top of QSO list. Then open your adif file with text editor and search that callsign. When found look at next qso record. Does it have garbage in name and/or qth tags content ?
Remove those tags, or whole qso record. Save your adif file with new name and try to import that.

See picture.
