401 error in a ranking task

[jarvis24]

Any chance you could zip and attach a copy of your experiment folder?

Hi!
I attached the experiment. The crash occurs when participants reach trial.exp, more specifically, as one told me, when she ran out of time. So far it happened only in conditions 5& 6.
Let me know if there is something unclear.
Thank you!

Anca--you've found a bug I believe. I was able to replicate the error under the following condition: I allowed the time to run out on the ranking item *while* one of the other message boxes was open--i.e., either "Move all the items" or the "Instructions" message boxes. Basically resulting in 2 message boxes being open at once. Subsequently, closing one caused the error. Any chance you could confirm this causes the error on your end?

Another thought--just curious--did you ever try to time the ranking item *within* a questionnaire (as opposed to it being a single item within a timed questionnaire)?

Hi Jarvis,

I also successfully replicated the crash in the lab! So thank you for finding the bug. Also, yes, I included 1 more item in all ranking questionnaires, but that did not change anything. Although I'm not sure if this is your question....because I thought I need to time the .que in the .exp file for the time clock to appear.

Regards,
Anca
