ADIF Import Fails

Hello:

I'm running cqrlog 2.5.2-1~hirsute (/var/lib/apt/lists/ppa.launchpad.net_ok2cqr_ppa_ubuntu_dists_hirsute_main_binary-arm64_Packages) on a Raspberry Pi 400 under Ubuntu 21.04 with the following kernel:

Linux ubuntu 5.11.0-1009-raspi #10-Ubuntu SMP PREEMPT Fri May 14 14:49:24 UTC 2021 aarch64 aarch64 aarch64 GNU/Linux

I'm having the same problem as described here: https://www.cqrlog.com/node/3086#comment-9368

"Import failed! TRegExpr exec: empty input string"

Based on the referenced thread, I thought a work-around had been implemented.

The ADIF files I was attempting to import were subsets of QSOs exported from cqrlog earlier today.

Thanks & 73,
Rob

Hi Rob!

I think you are not running latest cqrlog (compiled from source). This error has been fixed. Also other ADFI import fixes (import from other source than cqrlog) has just been added to official source.

You could try to compile latest source by your self. You find instructions from here : https://www.cqrlog.com/node/3124

If you do not like to compile by yourself you could try ready compiled version (but it does not yet have the latest adif fix (import from other sources than cqrlog. It will be added in near future.) Instruction link can be found from same message chain. The message is #5

Thank you, Saku.

Following your instructions at https://www.cqrlog.com/node/3124 worked perfectly!

To be safe in the future, should I just plan on updating from the repository on Github and compiling myself rather than pulling from the ppa on Ubuntu?

Best Regards,

Hi Rob !
If you did compile by yourself after cloning source from Petr's GitHub you just need to change to that directory (assume it is ~/cqrlog) and issue command "git pull" and after that "make" and "make install" again to get the latest version.

If you did download the compiled binary from my GitHub using "newupdate.sh" you just need to start the newupdate.sh again when you notice there is a new version available.

Packages are often old, or even very old, because they usually are done after major changes I.E: version number changes, not after every fix.
