Exporting from DHIS1.4 and Importing into DHIS2

I have DHIS1.4 which can export XML data in DHIS2 format. However, when importing that file into DHIS2.10 running on Ubuntu 12.04 and MySQL database, I am having to select DHIS 1.4 import for it to be successful.

Is this the normal behaviour? I would have thought since I am exporting the file from DHIS1.4 as a DHIS2 XML file, I should import this file in DHIS2 as a DHIS2 file.

It actually is the same file. The only difference between these two formats is that the normal DHIS 1.4 export format is zipped as a 7-zip file (which DHIS2 cannot handle) as opposed to a ZIP file, which DHIS2 can handle.

Jason
