Cannot Import Categories

Hello,

I am trying to import all my categories from my old site into my development URL. I wen ahead an deleted all articles and categories for all components in the hopes to import everything exactly the same as the old site.

Every-time I try to import the CSV file, I get this message: Another category with the same parent category has the same alias (remember it may be a trashed item).
Import Failed.

I've gone through all categories and I'm not seeing any. Not sure what is going on.

Here is the CSV that was exported from the current website, that I am trying to import into the new website.

Hello,
Have you checked the trash as well? It seems you have not emptied the trash. Please also check the log. Is it importing any category or not at all?

Hi Daniel,

I have checked the trash as well. Not sure what I'm missing. I have not checked the log, how do I do that?

Hi,
There is a separate Menu within vData for Logs. If you do not see the Log menu then Please enable it from vData configuration. And Please let me know if It is importing a few categories or not at all?
