You need to update Java on your computer, I think.

It's not a problem with java on your machine. I think you have run into this problem:

Problem using repeat_count in nested repeats

To understand this, I tried to run the 2 files on my side and I got the same error message. I usually upload my form on the aggregate platform. How do I update the version for that. Also on the same note, I have a questionnaire I am making where a classroom is to have different teams. Each classroom will have a different list of teams. Is there a way that the teacher can select multiple teams and then the repeat loop can reflect for only those teams?

Nested loop - repeated count

Hi Francesco, This is possible, but XLSForm doesn't make it possible. We'll have to work around it. I've attached an example form that I think does what you'd like. Ideally, you should have been able to use a repeat_count column with the value ${participant_count}, but XLSForm doesn't allow it. So instead, I've included a custom column in the XLSForm called "body::jr:countx" with the value "/nested_loop_count/session/participant_count". In the XML that gets generated, you'll see this wi…

so you can try to update your aggregate to the newest version or just use the workaround described in the second link I attached.

thank you very much for sharing the nested loop information...can you guide me for updating my aggregate server...as i dont know much about programming, it will be very helpful if there is any video or instructions about updating aggregate in layman terms..

I think the process is well described in our documentation https://docs.getodk.org/aggregate-upgrade/
