This one has been an incredibly long time in coming, but it's finally happened: The latest Project Importer release!
This release can be downloaded here: Project Importer v2.2
The big updates for this one are simple:
- Found and resolved an issue where it was possible to assign a project to Company 0 which would prevent all users from accessing the project in any way. This issue was introduced in the last release. Oops.
- Added a contribution from Wellison da Rocha Pereira to allow for importing of WBS Gant Chart Pro v4.4 files. This appears to work with the sample files but unfortunately, the number of available files of this type has been extremely limited. If you run into issues, please provide the file you are attempting to import.
- Added a contribution from Richard Siomporas to allow the User to choose whether or not to import Users from the imported file.
If you are using any version of dotProject prior to this - including any of the 2.0.x releases - please upgrade as soon as possible to address various security, usability, and functionality issues. If you must use one of those dotProject releases, please check out v1.3 of the Project Importer.
Due to a security vulnerability with the existing dotProject release (as of 19 July), this is definitively last release of this module. All further development will occur on web2project.
All releases of this module as of v2.0 are known to be incompatible with PHP4. Do not try to use it, do not ask us to backport the module. PHP4 will reach its End of Life on 08 August 2008. Please upgrade to PHP5 as soon as your organization is ready.
This release can be downloaded here: Project Importer v2.2
web2project importer
When do you think you'll have a version that'll work with web2project? It would be very helpful in our development processes.
Thanks

Install error
Hello Casey.
I'm using 2.1 version yet because this version doesn't run in my dotProject. When I install it and select the tab appears the following message error:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_PUBLIC in /var/www/dotproject/modules/projectimporter/imports/BaseImporter.class.php on line 68
How can I fix it?
Try Downloading Again
In the v2.2 package, I don't see anything around that line that could cause that sort of problem. Could you please try downloading the module again?
does it work with web2project.?
i'v got this message with we2project when i installed the module:
You should not access this file directly.
How can i make it work?
Thanks!
Not compatible with web2project
As noted in the release notes and in the module documentation, the Project Importer is not currently compatible with web2project. Once the web2project installer is complete - pushing for this week - updating the Importer is next on my agenda.
Thanks!
XML specification
Hi,
When importing the XML file I get;
...This Project File was created as an export of Microsoft Project Webserver and does not conform to the Microsoft Project XML Specification. Therefore it might not have imported as you expected...
This results in no tasks in the project imported
All I do is 'save as' in project 2003 SP3 to get the xml so not sure I end up with a icompatible format
AK
XML spec further info
FYI I created a simple one task project which imported OK, the project file I tired were between 100~200 tasks

Compatibility Message
I tried to install Project Importer 2.2 and got the following message:
As of version 1.2, this module is not compatible with any dotProject version prior to the 2.1 release candidates. Please upgrade your dotProject installation.
I am at the most current version of dotProject (2.1.2)
Thanks.
dotProject 2.1.2 not supported
Unfortunately, we're not providing support for dotProject anymore. I suggest that you upgrade to web2project as soon as possible. I believe the performance improvements alone make it worthwhile. We're wrapping up the Project Importer for web2project and will release that shortly.
No download for web2project
The only download at web2project is a pdf!
Download via SVN
Yes, currently the only thing downloadable via the web is a pdf. If you want to try out web2project, you either have to try out the demo or download via SVN. Once the installer is complete - which we're working on - we'll make the first major release.
problems importing large projects
Hi,
I am using the PorjectImporter and it works perfectly with small projects, but with big ones I get the following message in the page where the project name and company have to filled in:
>>>>>
Warning: fread(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in /var/www/modules/projectimporter/imports/BaseImporter.class.php on line 22
Warning: fclose(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in /var/www/modules/projectimporter/imports/BaseImporter.class.php on line 23
This Project File was created as an export of Microsoft Project Webserver and does not conform to the Microsaoft Project XML Specification. Therefore it might not have imported as you expected.
Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /var/www/modules/projectimporter/imports/msproject.php on line 332
Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /var/www/modules/projectimporter/imports/msproject.php on line 372
>>>>>
the only thing I can say is that I created to XML from MSproject, by just selecting the "save as" option so I don't understand why it says "This Project File was created as an export of Microsoft Project Webserver".
and for smaller projects, the XML files saved in the same way are just fine.
