Hello,
I am in need of urgent assistance on this matter.
I am trying perform a SAP Netweaver 7.3 installation and importing a java database instance export from another server. The installation fails to import only one of the files.
After looking through the logs found the following error trace of the jload:
com.sap.inst.dbtools [Thread[pool-1-thread-3,5,main]] Info: Starting task IMPORT_4_J2EE_CONFIGENTRY.XML

I have never seen the error: "java.io.IOException: Data file seems to be in old format (no header) Use an earlier version of jload" and I have found not found any useful information on this matter.
Does anyone have any idea on how to fix this? Is there a way to find an earlier version of jload or is there a way to add a header to the import data so that the installer does not complain?
If you need any other information form log files please let me know and I shall post this information.
Thanks in advance,
