Cannot open file - 'NoneType" error

Post by mattnw »

Hi all,

One of the assignments in my class involves students submitting .omv jamovi files. One of the files submitted by a student produces an error message in jamovi 1.6.3:

Code: Select all

Unable to open
'NoneType' object has no attribute 'is_passive'
I have confirmed with the student that the file was created in jamovi 1.6.3, and it still opens on her computer. (We're both using Windows 10; the marker uses Mac and can't open it either).

Any ideas about what might cause this? I can share the file if needed, though haven't done so yet since it means sharing the student's work.

Was this ever solved? I'm having the same issue with a file that I was working on just a few minutes ago, that I now can't open. Mine says:

Unable to open
'NoneType' object has no attribute 'add_dependent'

hi laura,

yes the problem was solved. can you start a new thread?

we'll need to see the file in order to fix this. you can either attach it to the thread, or send it through to contact <at> jamovi.org

with thanks
