Error in [.data.frame(obj, , cols_id, drop = FALSE) : undefined columns selected

[Sven-Winter]

Hi I am trying to get chiimp running again (after a computer re-setup) but when I drop the config file (I have tried a view different files) I received the following error:

Error in [.data.frame(obj, , cols_id, drop = FALSE) :
undefined columns selected
Additionally, Warning:
In check_spec(cfg_table, CONFIG_TABLE_SPEC) :
Missing columns in table: Key
Missing columns in table: Value

Any idea what causes this error?

Thank you very much in advance

Sven

Hi Sven,

In the development version of the code I've switched to a primarily CSV-based configuration system, and I'm thinking your new install is probably using that dev CHIIMP version (which apparently has some bugs in the config-handling, if it's failing with an existing config file; it should be backwards-compatible). There are other features I'm working on there too but they're not quite ready yet (to anyone else reading this, I'm sorry if I still owe you responses about those features!)

If you're not specifically looking for any of these new features, I'd suggest just using the most recent stable version, 0.4.1 until I can figure this out. Though, we can check one simple possible explanation here: does your config file end with .yml or .yaml? The latest code uses that to decide which file loader it should use, so if the filename ends in something else, that would explain why it seems to be trying to use the CSV loader.
