Database filetype xlsx not supported fix

NICKCHEESE opened this issue · comments

Not sure if anyone else has had this issue come up when trying to run this but here's what I did:
Run the database update command as normal
Rename the database file FROM .xls TO .xlsx
Then use as online tool to convert it back into .xls format. Stupid I know. I used (https://www.zamzar.com/convert/xlsx-to-xls/)
Save the file and replace your existing one and run the script as you normally would.

At least this worked for me. Maybe it'll help someone else out too.
