tic_id error #11

Closed LerhFengLow closed 2 years ago

LerhFengLow commented 2 years ago

I'm encountering an error when trying to use the "Classifying flaring stars with stella" notebook. The first two boxes run fine, but the third one complains of a tic_id error. What could be causing the problem?

thanks for submitting this issue! I think the problem has to do with your installation of stella. To confirm, which version of stella are you running?

LerhFengLow commented 2 years ago

How do I tell which version it is? I just reran pip install stella and the problem is still there, as well.

cmurray-astro commented 2 years ago

To check which version you are running, you can execute print(stella.__version__)

The issue you raised is fixed by installing the developer version of the stella package. I have updated the instructions for installing stella in the notebook (PR #12). In your case, please re-install stella following their instructions for installing the developer version (https://adina.feinste.in/stella/getting_started/installation.html)

I ran the commands for installing the developer version but am still encountering the issue. The error message looks the same.

stella version is 0.0.5. That's an older version, right? The stella source code seems to say the most recent one is 0.1.0.

Thanks for sending this info! You will need to uninstall stella first (pip uninstall stella, for example, if you used pip to install initially). Then re-install using the instructions for installing the developer version. To verify, the version should be 0.2.0.

It worked, thanks!
