[ODK Developers] Errors in Validate/Aggregate using file straight from ODK Build

Development

The error seems pretty self-explanitory:

org.javarosa.xform.parse.XFormParseException: Select question has no choices
org.javarosa.xform.parse.XFormParseException: Select question has no choices

Hey Guys,

Decided to use ODK Build to make a Survey. Exported the output to .xml and
uploaded that to Aggregate and got a parsing error. Used ODK Validate and
got the following errors. (Attached files)

Any idea on whats going wrong? This file is straight from ODK Build, no
changes.

Please help

Mustafa,
That happened to me too. I just forgot to add the Choose One options.

Mitch, however, I got errors trying to use the form (Built export to XML
save to USB connected tablet) when I used the revelance condition *sex='0' *in
ODK Build. Once I went back and changed it to /data/sex='0' it worked. I
swear that I didn't have to explicitly include the path */data/ *at other
times. Is there an explanation?

The failure to recognize this syntax and a related regression in the
javarosa library will be fixed in an update to ODK Aggregate and ODK
Collect that we're working on.

With the addition of the cascading select support using extra
sections, the way relative paths are interpreted has become much more
important to get right, because a relative path might refer to one of the
other instance sections. There are likely to be other subtle errors around
this area. The inability to use cascading selects within repeat groups is
an example of one of these subtle errors.

Hey guys,

I actually picked up that right after I posted. However I still get the
errors in the ODK Validate. I decided to scrap everthing and redo the whole
thing in XLSform. More work now but might be easier in the long run.

Thanks for the replies.
