epidatamanager: control-file-has-bad-permissions

by epidata-list＠lists.umanitoba.ca

Hi Does anyone know what is this when I try to install epidata manager? I'm using Ubuntu 13.04: Lintian check results for /home/mcardeal/Downloads/setup.epidatamanager.1.4.2.0-0_i386.deb: E: epidatamanager: control-file-has-bad-permissions postinst 0775 != 0755 This started happening after the last update EpiData (July 2013). While reinstalling several times the error message continues. Thanks Mauricio Federal University of Bahia, Brazil

RE: Epidatamanager to PSPP or SPSS issues

by epidata-list＠lists.umanitoba.ca

Dear Jens When i use epidata manager and export the data to SPSS i face a problem. In the SPSS datafile created, 2 or 3 variables get combined into 1 variable in the data for example the age , sex all are in one column;however in the same file if i look at the variable view,i see all data separately with the value labels separate and the codes separately. I contacted PSPP user group online and they suggested that this could be an issue with the epidata manager I hope you can help Thanks Thambu much obliged Thambu

Data validation using the same file

by epidata-list＠lists.umanitoba.ca

Hi, This may sound silly but I feel that I need to report this. When I tried to do the double entry validation using one single file (i.e. I selected one epx file twice for the purpose of validation), EpiData Manager did not prevent me to do this. It produced a report which, of course, has no discrepancy. I tried this on both EpiData Manager (v1.5.0.10) and (v1.4.2). Both gave me the same result. Below is an excerpt of the validation report I just created showing validation was attempted using the same epx file. ======================================== Report: Double Entry Validation Report. Created: 2013-08-31 04:40:35 ======================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------ File 1: C:\Users\Zaw Myo Tun\Documents\EpiData\examples\sample.epx File 2: C:\Users\Zaw Myo Tun\Documents\EpiData\examples\sample.epx ------------------------------------------------------------------ Best wishes, Zaw
