Hi,
I find Kexi intriguing and a good replacement for mainstream desktop databases. Trying to import a tab separated table however seems to be broken in 3.2 on Windows.

First of all I missed the CSV Option in the datatypes as described in the available documentation. when I changed the delimiter to tabs and the extension to .tsv, Kexi crashed on importing the table.

Any hints where I can check loged data to identifiy problems within the dataset ?

Hi Michael, thanks for trying KEXI.
You found out a solution in the meantime but the crash shall not be present even for invalid data. So it would be best if you attach a sample CSV (e.g. a few rows, can be with obfuscated data or so) that causes the crash to a bug report, and explain what to click in order to cause the crash - https://community.kde.org/Kexi/File_a_bug_or_wish.

What version of KEXI?

For performance reasons detailed logs are disabled in production versions of KEXI, they are not even compiled in, so can't be enabled. To debug, one can add specific instructions to the source code and compile the program.

Warning or errors shall be visible on standard output when enabled using the kdebugdialog5 control app; type "kexi" in the search box show all debug areas and enable them. https://docs.kde.org/trunk5/en/framewor ... index.html

If there's a crash, it can be displayed the way explained here
https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_an ... sh_reports

Hope this helps.
