You are correct, I did the export directly in the website, by right- click->export tree. This is because I had a corrupted tree, and it was easier to export the parts I wanted than in the export tool. But Miranda says she tested the export tool without formatting, and it did not work...

We really need a way to update magnolia (3.0.2 to future 3.0.3 for example) without exporting to and importing from xml.

I'm sure the answer was in this thread somewhere, but I'll ask because it's easier ....

Just out of curiosity, how did you do the export?
I've seen the right-click export method create the "pretty" formatted indented xml which does cause problems on import. Using the magnolia export tool (Export from the Tools menu on the left in AdminCentral) and then making sure the "Format XML" checkbox is clear always works for me.

It's even worse than I thought then, if it affects every backup- restore cycle. I can tell that my paragraphs (pasted from word in fck) CANNOT be "reconverted" by saving again the paragraph. I don't want to be too critical, because magnolia CE is an open source tool, and a very promising one, but a CMS that cannot be saved and restored, and in the case of magnolia CE, that cannot be updated, is not ready for production.

I remember this issue has already been reported in JIRA. Usually you can "re-convert" those richtext-fields by clicking the responsible dialog and save the data again. I don't think this behaviour isn't caused by a different tomcat-version. Nevertheless this issue is a big blocker for me...

Maintaining a site with magnolia proves to be a real nightmare.
The bugs in 3.0.1 forced me to update to 3.0.2.
I also downgraded from Tomcat 5.5.17 to 5.0.28, because of some issues with table paragraphs, and because 5.0.28 is the version magnolia ships with.
I exported everything and imported it back.
Most of the pages have problems now: line breaks appearing randomly, tables created with fck editor which confuse content and html, and so on...

What a mess!
Am I the only one to experience this?
At least we should be warned that one should not export and import to magnolia instances running on a different version of tomcat... What's the point with exporting to xml if everything gets scrumbled?
