Importing a BOX package to the current host

A BOX package can be exported in the compressed format and later imported. From the BOX Manager, you can import the BOX file into the BOX repository.

Note: If you are importing a BOX from a Windows host server to a UNIX host server, then the Windows CRLF configuration files must be converted to LF format. The UNIX engine does not support CRLF files. To do this, use dos2unix.
  1. Right-click in the BOX Manager to open a menu where you can select Import.
  2. On the Import BOX dialog box, click Browse to open a file browser. Different platforms might have different file browser layouts. The supported file type is *.box.
    If the BOX being imported has been password encrypted, then specify the Password.
  3. After locating the BOX file package, click OK. This takes you back to the Import BOX dialog box Then click OK on the Import BOX dialog box. The IDE checks if the selected file is a valid BOX package. If it is, then this BOX is imported into the BOX repository of the current host. The BOX Manager is refreshed to show the imported BOX after the Import BOX dialog box is closed.
    If the specified file is not a valid BOX package, then an error message opens.
