CSV import: Service import changed, does not work in 1.1.22

[Per_Westerlund]

Hi!

I have used CSV import quite a lot lately, and today, running 1.1.22, I imported all CSV files from scratch again. This time there was nothing at all imported for the Services objects. I have not changed that source CSV file in two weeks, so something has happened to the import. I cannot say for sure if it was this last change from 1.1.21 to 1.1.22 that made it, or if it stopped working earlier.

Is there a log file somewhere where I can look for clues? There is always a possibility that the import has changed to be  less flexible, and I can change something at my end to make this work again.

The changes to the CSV import for the services was updated in the CSV import guide earlier this week.

The main difference was an addition to include an option for the source port. With the previous setting for 'port' changed to 'dport' to specify the destination port.

I just upgraded to 1.1.23, and it is still broken unfortunately.

In 1.1.23, there is still something small not quite right.

If I have a column in the first line of the file preset to 'dport', it is not picked up as a key for 'Destination Port', I have to select it by hand.

A small thing to tweak for a future release.

Do you have a sample of the CSV so we can test against your file?

Here is the initial part of the file I used at the time, or very similar to it. It is generated by a Perl script, and I haven't touched that part in a long time.
