zip of external cels fail

[tusharkantawp]

If I upload a zip file of external cql files (dependent on one another), I get an error that invalid file format (it says format should be in cql or zip) though I am loading a zip file. Please advise what to do

Hi @tusharkantawp. A few questions:

• Is it a standard zip file or is it something else (like .zipx, .7z, .tgz, etc.)?
• Are the CQL files at the root of the zip file or are they nested in subfolders?

[tusharkantawp]

It is a standard zip file and all cqls are in root. Not in any subfolder.

A colleague and I have both tried this and it seems to be working for us. It's hard to know if it is an issue with your zip file or with your system.

Here is a file that works fine for me. Can you try it?

my-cql-files.zip

Hi @tusharkantawp. Is this still an issue? We were never able to reproduce it. If it's no longer a problem, I'd like to close this issue.

When uploading external cql files; The following error is reported:

Proxy error: Could not proxy request /authoring/api/externalCQL from localhost:3000 to http://localhost:3001/.
See https://nodejs.org/api/errors.html#errors_common_system_errors for more information (ECONNRESET).

Hi @nibaba007. Based on the API stack trace you provided, it looks like there may be a problem converting the CQL into JSON. Are you running a local CQL Translation Service? If you look at the API README's Development Details section, it discusses this at the end. You can either disable the use of CQL-to-ELM in the config or run a CQL Translation Service using Java or Docker.

I am certain that I have started the service: cql translation service

[cmoesel]

OK. Let's try a few things:

1. If you create a simple artifact, does the "Download CQL" feature work? If so, does the zip file have a JSON file corresponding to each CQL file?

2. When the CDS Authoring Tool API starts up, it should log out the config. Do you see something like this in the config?

  "cqlToElm": {
    "url": "http://localhost:8080/cql/translator",
    "active": true
  },

Is the URL pointing to http://localhost:8080/cql/translator?

3. If you go to http://localhost:8080/cql/application.wadl in your browser and then right-click and view source, do you see XML with a top-level <application xmlns="http://wadl.dev.java.net/2009/02"> tag?
