Cannot import Zefania bible in 2.9.4
Hi Team,
In Stable Version, v2.4.6 Zefania bible can import smoothly when the same file we're importing it into v2.9.4 it says
"Incorrect Bible file type supplied. Zefania Bibles may be compressed. You must decompress them before import."
Comments
Ive seen various errors with bibles
however deleated them all from openlp/databibles and the regkey entries, then started openlp and re-imported bibles.
then they work much better
I just imported a Zefania Bible. Can you point me to the Bible you're trying to import? It's probably a problem with just that one.
@raoul
We tried the in Stable version 3.0 It also has the same problem
"Incorrect Bible file type supplied. Zefania Bibles may be compressed. You must decompress them before import."
We created an XML file in the Telugu language, not from the Internet. That's why I can't point it to you that we're importing.
@tpaulmanohar
It sounds like the XML file is not valid zefania XML. Have you validated it somehow? Which tool did you use to create it?
@tpaulmanohar
You could also try to create an OpenLP debug log from when you try to import and post it somewhere (like https://pastebin.com/) and post the link here.
See the manual for how to create a debug log: https://manual.openlp.org/troubleshooting.html#i-have-been-asked-to-email-a-debug-log-where-do-i-find-this
Hi @tgc ,
I validated the XML file through an XML validator(
https://codebeautify.org/xmlvalidator
https://jsonformatter.org/xml-validator).
On these websites, it says it is a valid XML file.
I followed the documentation for Debug mode and pasted it in Pastebin that entire log file.

Can you help us with where we need to fix this?
Thanks,
Paul.
Looking at the debug log it seems that chapter numbers or verse numbers or bible number is missing.
Look at the this example from KJV:
<BIBLEBOOK bnumber="1" bname="Genesis" bsname="Gen">
<CHAPTER cnumber="1">
<VERS vnumber="1">In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.</VERS>
<VERS vnumber="2">And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.</VERS>
OpenLP requires the BIBLEBOOK attribute bnumber, the CHAPTER attribute cnumber and the VERS attribute vnumber.
@tgc
Likewise our XML bible has
<BIBLEBOOK bnumber="1" bname="Genesis">
<CHAPTER cnumber="1">
<VERS vnumber="1">ఆదియందు దేవుడు భూమ్యాకాశములను సృజించెను.</VERS>
<VERS vnumber="2">భూమి నిరాకారముగాను శూన్యముగాను ఉండెను; చీకటి అగాధ జలము పైన కమ్మియుండెను; దేవుని ఆత్మ జలములపైన అల్లాడుచుండెను.</VERS>
<VERS vnumber="3">దేవుడు వెలుగు కమ్మని పలుకగా వెలుగు కలిగెను.</VERS>
Looking at the log it seems the needed attribute is missing in Exodus in the first 3 chapters. It also looks like chapter 1 and 2 are in reverse order?
@tgc
Found the issue here it is causing the issue <VERS vnumbern="1">.
n letter is added after the vnumber that causing the issue.
Right now it working excepted.
Thanks for the guidance @tgc
Great to hear that it works! :)
