Import local .dmc catalog to shared server catalog in version 7.8 (2900)

[cincytriguy]

I've been using the free standalone version Daminion client 7.5 and just upgraded to Team Server 7.8. I have nearly 15,000 items in my catalog, which prompted the upgrade.

The File | Import option only has options for .csv and .xml files, and when I attempt to open my local .dmc file I get an error stating support for local catalogs has been discontinued since 7.7. 

What are my options for importing a local .dmc to a server catalog in 7.8?

Hi,
is it an option for you to "downgrade" the client back to 7.5? - stop the 7.8 server and install the 7.5 client. Then export the local catalog to the CSV file, start the 7.8 server again and start the 7.5 client. You should get the option to upgrade the client from 7.5 to 7.8. Import the CSV file created by the 7.5 client.
Regards, Uwe

Hello @cincytriguy. According to this message we have decided to disable local catalogs in 7.8.0.2900. Here is the latest version of Daminion Client:  

7.5- https://app.box.com/s/hksid5u6wz9afjruruavqyi9t42n5tk7

7.6-https://app.box.com/s/nzejw8q0pjbzxiaj0ctx1a8llnj98cd0

Would it be possible to copy the images with 7.5/7.6 from the local cattails to a new web catalog in the client? Then there would be no need for export/import.
