Hi Team,

I have developed a long questionnaire with over 450 questions in xlsform  
and is running well in ODK Collect 1.4, except ODK Collect is crushing at a  
specific point, line 350, where there is an end of a loop.

At that point it asks me whether I want to add a new group, if I say "Add  
New Group" it crashes giving this error message "Unfortunately, ODK Collect  
has stopped" and then it displays two options, "Report" and "OK".  
However, if I select "Do not Add Group" it moves on well to the next  
question.

Any advice would be highly appreciated.

Collins

To debug this, we need a log captured at the time of the Forced Close.  
[http://code.google.com/p/opendatakit/wiki/CollectTroubleshooting](http://code.google.com/p/opendatakit/wiki/CollectTroubleshooting)

Once you have the log, you can open an issue and attach the log to the  
issue.
