VAapp getting disconnected

[jarathomas]

We have been focusing our efforts on creating new tools for using openVA (an app with a GUI coded in Python). Unfortunately, this means that the Docker app gets little support and is unstable -- apologies for failing to mention this on the read me page!

As for your problem, are you selecting an ID column? If so, does the app work if you go with the default option of "none"?

Version 1.3.0 is available. Can you please give it a try and let us know if it solves the problem?

Hi Thomas,
Thanks for actively responding. I could work using the R codes so your first suggestion works for me.
Regarding the V1.3.0, I have pulled this into my system but not sure how to analyse my dataset. Previously, I was using the app downloaded from this link https://github.com/verbal-autopsy-software/openVA_App/releases/tag/1.0.0.
Is there any opportunity to have a similar/ any other app which can help me and my team for quick data analysis?
Regards,

Creating a new version of the app you downloaded will take a while. In the meantime, you can try the following

• start Docker Desktop
• click on Images (on the left of the window) and start a new container (find the entry openvateam/openva_app 1.30 and click the play/run button); in the optional settings, set the "Ports" to 3838 and click the "Run" button
• open your web browser and enter the following address bar: localhost:3838/openVA_App

This should create a new container. When you are done, you can go back to Docker Desktop and under "Containers" you should see a new container (for openvateam/openva:1.3.0). Click the stop button (in the "Actions" column) to stop the container, and press the play/run button to start it again.

Thank you for sharing the steps.
I could reach the browser and upload the data. Still, facing the same issue of disconnection.
I have used column Id as None for the first scenario and my dataset Id for the second scenario, it's not working.
Even tried with InSilicoVA and InterVA5.

Sorry to hear that. Unfortunately, I would need a sample of your data file to figure out the problem. Is it possible to share a (de-identified) sample of your data file that causes the disconnection? If so, you can email me the file. If not, then the only idea I have is to compare your data file against the example file and check for non utf-8 characters (e.g., letters with tildes or accents that look something like \0xCO in excel) and remove them.

Thank you. I have dropped an email to you at [[email protected]].
