Since one of the latest updates I’m getting an error when trying to publish that’s telling me:
“Project type has changed since the latest published version (was Process, now is BusinessProcess). Revert the project type or publish a new project.”
I’ve read some of the threads around here about the error tried renaming the project.json and letting it rebuild but that just seems to irrevocably break some of our processes. Several of the threads also point to the 2018.4 version of Studio being the root cause, but my organization has never even used that version so that’s a no-starter.
Can we expect any bug fix for this or a reasonable workaround? The only thing that’s working so far is renaming the project and publishing it as a new thing but having to rebuild our entire library of processes like that is frankly just unwieldly and quite an ugly band aid on the problem.
I’m currently on StudioX 2025.0.167 but I’m not entirely sure which update that broke things.
Here’s the full error log.

Can you try the latest stable Enterprise release of 24.10.13? See if that gets the same error?
Does this error occur in a popup whilst after you finish the publish window, before that window occurs during the workflow analyzer steps? Is it in the logs?
Dang, I assumed we were on the enterprise version since that’s what were paying for. So after uninstalling StudioX and reinstalling (presumably) the enterprise version through UiPathStudio.msi I was able to successfully publish the project but:
It wants to update me to the same version, which will presumably break everything again, and seems to imply I’m still on the community version? I’m not really sure what’s going on with our studio version, I may just have to contact UiPath directly about this.
Wait, so UiPathStudio.msi and UiPathStudioCommunity.msi are both Community? That is counterintuitive to say the least.
That installer seems to have worked though, the version number actually looks correct now. Fingers crossed it stays that way now.
I am not sure where you got UiPathStudio.msi for community, but its UiPathStudioCloud.msi in the link I gave you
Easy to get confused with the versions though.
Let us know if the downgrade worked as it should help us know if this is a bug from community version or an issue with your project.
It was happening on all existing projects but I could create a new one and publish it just fine. Working just fine now that I’m not using community though.
