Can no longer open VPOnline project in desktop

Bug Reports
1

About 1 month ago I saved my project from the desktop app and checked it back in / committed it to VPOnline. This was all done in VPP17.1. This is the only project I have in VPOnline and the desktop app normally opens the first diagram as soon as I launch it, either the local working version (if not checked back in) or the server version.

Today I opened the desktop app and it failed to open my project. It is just stuck on the animated green diamonds (“Preparing”). I can view my project in VPOnline via a web browser and I see it is intact and correct. But the desktop app will not open any diagram in that project.

I am on a different WiFi network in a different city, but the connection speed is very good (faster than where I was before) and I have no trouble using any other apps. Not using a VPN.

I have logged out/in and even fully uninstalled/reinstalled the VPP app on my desktop. I can connect to my workspace and see the project, but none of the diagrams will open.

Please help me regain access to my diagrams.

Exactly the same thing is happening to me, any solution?

Hello everyone,

my problem was solving deleting files under %appdata%\VisualParadigm, and delete the JxBrowser folder under %localappdata%.

Ideally make a backup of the default workspace under %appdata%\VisualParadigm\ws or commit all your local changes.

Then startup VP application and select the workspace backup and open the project from Project → Open → Local File System. Or download your changes from scratch from the vpository.

Thanks to the vp support team (support-team@visual-paradigm.com) for their help.
