  • 1.  SPSS 27- Case Control Matching error message

    Posted Wed January 06, 2021 09:20 AM

    Hello,

    yesterday I tried to match cases and controls with SPSS 27 and always got an error message. Before that I worked with SPSS 26 without any problems. I uninstalled, reinstalled it and tested it on another laptop. Nothing worked. The code of the error message varies depending on the number of data. For example Warnings 2.1., Warnings 2.2., Warnings 3.8.,...Does anyone habe a solution for this problem?

    Thanks a lot!

    I can't see any  messages in your post, so I can't guess what might be wrong.  Please provide more details.  If you can't do that, if you want to send me the data and the syntax pasted from the dialog box, I will take a look (jkpeck@gmail.com)

    Hi

    Did you find a solution? I have exactely the same problem. Worked fine under version 26 and now under version 27 I always get a "Warning" but without any content (see below).

    Thanks!

    For V27, all the Python extensions were converted to Python 3, and some conversion errors were not caught.  I have fixed a few things.  Try installing the version posted here
    and restart Statistics to see if this fixes the problem.

    Dear Jon

    Thanks for the quick answer. Unfortunately, the problem is not fixed. I still get this message and the matching did not work.

    Please paste the syntax from the dialog box and send it to me (jkpeck@gmail.com) along with some data for testing.  I don't know where that error message is coming from, but maybe I can track it down

    Unfortunately, I don't get any errors when I run your job.

    What are your output  and user interface language setting (Edit  > Options > Language)?
    What is your exact SPSS version (Help > About)?
    What platform are you on (Window, Mac, Linux)?

    Run this code from a syntax window and tell me what you see/
    begin program python3.
    import sys
    print(sys.version)
    end program.

    be sure to select all those lines when  you run this.

    Hi Jon,

    I've tried everything within v27 and keep having the same issue discussed above. I tried downloading your posted version and SPSS is still not matching any of the cases to controls. All I get are blank columns for new variables with no numbers within them. I keep getting the same error message 4.3 too. Can you please help?
