Data update and graph--BUG #189

Closed reissler closed 7 years ago

reissler commented 7 years ago

I just wanted to let you know that I just tried to upload a updated dataset to the site (Most Important Problem, which is normal sized) and when I clicked the “update” button under dataset, the page just reloaded as is, as opposed to letting me select a new file. Then, I went back and then reopened the page and there was no dataset, so I was able to upload the new dataset. But now, I can’t graph MIP. When I click the series to populate the graph, the bar moves over, but the graph is blank and the tool is frozen. I can download the new data from the site, however.

I was, however, able to upload and graph a completely new dataset, Public Law Titles.

This bug was triggered because the new MIP dataset had a column named "percentage" instead of "percent"

I changed the column name and re-uploaded and it should be good again...

(will try to figure out a way to keep the app from crashing in this instance)

Thanks for the quick fix. I’ll change the language in our legacy files (which was how we had the problem in the first place.)

Best, Rebecca

I am still having this problem on a new dataset that I uploaded. The initial upload for New York Times Front Page Index went fine and I could graph the new data. Then I went to update the dataset (after changing a few things) and it won't let me replace the old file. I just keep getting the page refresh. I also can not graph the data now.

I apologize if this is a user error, like last time, but not being able to update a file is frustrating.

Best, Rebecca
