Error loading XLSX file from Google Drive because "not a valid OOXML" - Google Drive Plugin

[jjc_al]

Hello,

I am using the Google Drive Plugin (version 1.1.4) with which I'd like to load an .xlsx file from a Google Drive using a service account. However, I get the following error:

"Failed to open Excel file, caused by: NotOfficeXmlFileException: No valid entries or contents found, this is not a valid OOXML (Office Open XML) file, caused by: ZipException: Unexpected record signature: 0XB863D080".

For information, I have checked the XLSX format box in Settings, and the preview displays the table as intended. I have attached screenshots of the error and the Format/Preview settings tab.

Thanks in advance for your help,

Jean-Julien

Are you sure your file is an actual .xlsx format file and not a .xls file? If it is an actual .xlsx format file you should be able to change the extension to .zip and unzip it's contents.

Hi Turribeach,

Thanks for your quick reply. The extension of the file is .xlsx, and when I uncheck the "XLSX format" box, the following error is raised:

"Tried format excel but configuration is not OK: Failed to open Excel file, caused by: OfficeXmlFileException: The supplied data appears to be in the Office 2007+ XML. You are calling the part of POI that deals with OLE2 Office Documents. You need to call a different part of POI to process this data (eg XSSF instead of HSSF)".
