Over the last few weeks, none of my commits has been followed up by a commit mail. Why?

Hi All
Does anyone have any documentation regarding how data can be entered offline and then synced with the database using DHIS 2?
Thank you
Paul
Hi Paul,
Sorry for this very late answer.
The most common way to solve this problem is to run DHIS2 as an offline application (as a complete stand alone system or in a local network), which is what we do in most places. You can easily run DHIS2 without an Internet connection by starting up tomcat on localhost (the local computer), and accessing it in your browser on e.g. http://localhost:8080/.
The way data is synchronised between two or more offline instances of DHIS is then through the import/export services. Metadata and data values will be exported to an XML file using the DXF format and then imported into the database on the destination computer. This is all taken care of through the user interface and by normal end-users, e.g. no need to be a system admin person to master this process. In DHIS2 go to Services->Import-Export to check out how this works.
Alternatively, in cases where you will not be able to install DHIS in an office, e.g. due to lack of computer and human capacity, a scenario could be to eneter data in Excel, in pre-defined templates, that later are sent to the office where DHIS is used/maintained. There it gets imported in a similar way to what is described above for XML. This functionality is not in place yet, although I think some local installations in India have already used this approach. This feature has been discussed on this list before and I think it will be included in a future release (2.0.3 or 2.0.4).
Hope that answered your question. If not, please let me know.

Lars, or others,
Any ideas about this import problem? See the log messages below
reported by Paul.
Paul, would it be possible to copy the exact text from the log and
paste here or attach the log file and share with the DHIS developers
on this list?
Ola

Subject: RE: [Dhis2-devs] Offline Question
To: Ola Hodne Titlestad <olatitle@gmail.com>
Hi Ola
Thanks again for all of the help. Sorry, but I have one more quick
question - I exported the metadata from the online version. But in the
import to the offline, the or units did not import - the process did
not complete. The text would just say that the org units were
importing but never finish. In the log, it would show most of the org
unit names, but then say "6 more to go" although it would not proceed.
Any ideas?
Thanks again
Paul
