multiple answers ranked in order of importance
Ted Johnson tjohnson@hni.org: Jan 15 01:52AM -0800
There is no function for that, but there is a workaround that seems to come
close.Here: https://formhub.org/prabhasp/forms/rank_example
There a sample file you can download to test, which we did:
It seems to work fine as long as the user answers the questions in order.
However, the weak validation fails if the user goes back changes a previous
answer. In the example above, the user could go back to the top question
and select "fuchsia" and the form will allow it.it might be worth testing as pull-down options rather than radio buttons.
We did not test this scenario.--

Its also possible to only show unselected choices using a choice_filter.
This example form illustrates this
https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B5_SmpWlQYxvMUVyb2Q2NmdybzQ/edit?pli=1The example may be more complex than you need in that it first asks for
your top three and then asks you to rank them. You can remove that first
multiple choice question if you want.Regards

Google sheets & charts
Swapnil Agarwal swapnilchesa@gmail.com: Jan 15 09:55AM +0530
Hi,
I am using formhub to create xls forms and the data entry is happening
using Enketo forms in the field.Can I aggregate the responses in a Google sheet so that I don't have to
download the updated excel sheet again and again?Also is there a way I can have automatic charts as per the responses?
Sorry if it sounds silly I am barely tech literate.
Thanks & Regards,
Swapnil Agarwal

Mitch Sundt mitchellsundt@gmail.com: Jan 15 10:57AM -0800This is a question for the formhub team -- formhub is an alternative to ODK
Aggregate.
This list is not their customer-support list. See their site for how to ask
them questions.ODK Aggregate, of course, has a publish-to-Google-Spreadsheets feature,
which is exactly what you are asking for.On Wed, Jan 14, 2015 at 8:25 PM, Swapnil Agarwal swapnilchesa@gmail.com wrote:

falure in installing ODK aggregate

zhangzaixing2009@gmail.com: Jan 14 09:37PM -0800Dear Mitch,
Thanks so much for the ananlysis and suggestion. I tried to install under the folder "My documents". it went through the process but again the same problem remaining.
So i tried to use the other computer i used and entoured the same problem with before. tried installation before and after clearing email protection. However either way it did not work. I have attached the running record for you to reveiw. the difference i found from the the recorda is the "authorization".
then i tried to sue the Log onto Aggregate. it did not work either.
regards and look forward to hearing from you soon.

Mitch Sundt mitchellsundt@gmail.com: Jan 15 10:55AM -0800Good. You have the app installed and uploaded to Google AppEngine.
Note that #1 and #2 both indicate the upload to Google AppEngine succeeded.
The upload script will report that authentication is required if you have
not uploaded anything to Google AppEngine in "a while". If the subsequent
uploads succeed (and they have), then everything is OK. The second upload
attempt was likely run shortly after the first one, and the authentication
was likely still active when that ran, so it never had an authentication
failure.The authentication during the upload sequence is entirely up to Google's
software - hence why I cannot be more specific than "a while." It seems to
continue to be valid for at least several hours after the username and
password are verified.All the login screens are all looking good.
If you have installed ODK Aggregate 1.4.4 or 1.4.5, the only account that
is defined will be the username you specified when you ran the installer.
You should click on the "Sign in with Aggregate password" , specify that
username, and user "aggregate" as the password. Once logged in, you should
immediately change the password (via the Site Admin / Permissions sub-tab).ODK Aggregate 1.4.5 is the most recent release, available here:
https://opendatakit.org/downloads/download-category/aggregate/If you have installed ODK Aggregate 1.4.3 or earlier, the installer would
have asked for a gmail account. In that case, you would choose "Sign in
with Google" and log in using that gmail account. The account name you
enter must exactly match the capitalization and spelling shown in your
gmail settings.Once you have logged in, you can use the Site Admin / Permissions screen to
restrict access to authorized users (vs. the anonymous user), and create
other user accounts or add gmail accounts to the set of authorized users.Note that beginning in April, gmail account access will stop working.
Note also that if you mis-type your password for the ODK Aggregate
username, you must close all of your browser windows and re-open them in
order to re-try with a correct password. Otherwise, regardless of what you
do, you will always get a screen like #4. Another option is to always log
in using an incognito or private browsing window.--

Cannot start Aggregate 1.0 with Apache Tomcat 6.0
kinuthianj@gmail.com: Jan 15 06:49AM -0800
This did the trick;
Copy mysql-connector-java-5.1.17-bin.jar to /var/lib/tomcat6/webapps/
ODKAggregate/WEB-INF/lib/I was previously copying the .jar file to /var/lib/tomcat6/ but this was NOT working.

GPS App on Android
Ramadhan Ali Swalleh ramadhan.swalleh@evidenceaction.org: Jan 15 09:35AM +0300
Hi everyone,
A question that's a little off topic here - hope anyone doesn't mind - but
I thought I may give it a try in case someone could point me to the right
direction.So we're looking for an Android app (to run discreetly preferably) that we
can use to track the movements of the devices in the field. Since they're
being used in relatively remote areas, we gather it shouldn't rely so much
on the network provider's network signal and instead, the GPS satellite
signal.Also, we'd prefer if the GPS data could be downloadable if possible.
Any assistance would greatly be appreciated.
Kind regards,
Ramadhan Swalleh
Neil Penman neilpenman@gmail.com: Jan 15 06:29PM +1100Hi Ramadhan,
I'm not going to answer your question directly although I'm guessing there
will be quite a few device management tools that will do what you want.However fieldTask, which is a wrapper around odkCollect that adds task
management features, does allow you to record the path taken by users while
they are completing surveys. Its not particularly discrete as it shows the
GPS trail on the phone. In fact I'd like to make it as obvious that it is
recording the path as possible. However it may be of interest and its back
on topicI have not built a GPX export option into the server yet but
that would not be too difficult.More details are available here http://blog.smap.com.au/version-14-11-01/
regards
Neil
