Hi,

Is there a feedback on this issue?

I have a 'XLS writer not installed’ error when trying to download the translation spreadsheet for update.

Thank you,

Mihai

This may be your issue: Rollbase uses JExcel API to read, write, and manipulate Excel 2003 spreadsheets in XLS format. Although this API is free, Rollbase does not include it into Private Cloud binaries for legal reasons.

Could this be your issue?  Have you downloaded this component?

For more on this see Rollbase in Action: Chapter 18: Installing and Configuring Private Cloud

(or the online/HTML version HERE)

Thank you Bill, this solved my issue.

That is good.  For the record, please note the other items in Chapter 18 that you might need if you want to create, for example, PDF files, or Word documents (or use different charts).
