SharePoint recreating .xpr & lost transform scenarios?
Posted: Fri Nov 01, 2019 5:16 pm
We have a working connection between SharePoint and Oxygen. We have both opened the project (.xpr) from SharePoint so we can both access the project's transformation scenarios.
However, some of our custom transform scenarios have suddenly disappeared for an unknown reason. We are not able to find them in Oxygen and we have not changed anything with the .xpr.
Upon investigation, it appears there are tons of .xpr in the SharePoint Recycle Bin. I've attached a screenshot showing just a small sample of the files from the Recycle Bin. The logic behind when these .xpr are created/deleted is unknown to us. It does not correlate with when we are saving topic files. We are just opening Oxygen and working off of the files through the SharePoint Browser view. There were some transform scenario files in the recycle bin, but there was no change to the .xpr at the time those files were dumped.
We do periodically get these popup messages, but even these messages do not correlate with all of the recreations in the recycle bin:
We are not sure if the missing transforms are related to the recreated .xpr file, but how can we get those back, or prevent this from happening in the future?

Are these "recreated" .xpr files the expected behavior? If not, what do we need to fix so we can both work off of the same project via SharePoint? Are we misunderstanding how the .xpr works?The file (Hardware.xpr) has been changed on the file system.
Do you want to reload the file content from disk?
