Error importing neuman.ged [17 January 2008]

We had an error while attempting to import your GEDCOM. This is most likely our fault. We will review the error and should have your pages ready tomorrow (or Monday if tomorrow falls on a weekend). There is no need to re-import your GEDCOM file.

For questions or problems, leave a message for Dallan or send an email to dallan@WeRelate.org.

It looks like the importer program wasn't able to identify any dead ancestors in your GEDCOM. Are there some dead ancestors in your GEDCOM? You can help the system identify them by putting a death date for some of them. -Nathan 08:46, 14 January 2008 (EST)

My GEDCOM contains both living people and deceased. Death dates are not yet know, because I'm still attempting to get the big picture. Once I have names, I can go searching for more information.

Could you please suggest a temporary solution for the situation ?

I don't understand why this is an issue, but I don't mind changing the GEDCOM temporarily just to get it imported so I can add the missing information later.

Thanks! L.Neuman--Neuman5022 09:40, 14 January 2008 (EST)

I should be able to take a look at it by tomorrow sometime. -Nathan 11:05, 14 January 2008 (EST)

I apologize -- I still haven't had a chance to look at it. I should be able to look at it tonight. -Nathan 10:22, 16 January 2008 (EST)

No need to apologize, I appreciate your efforts to assist. --Neuman5022

I will get this done -- at the very least by Saturday... I still didn't have a chance to get it done last night. Sorry! -Nathan 13:25, 17 January 2008 (EST)

It turned out that the problem with your GEDCOM was actually that GENJ labeled the character encoding incorrectly as UNICODE, when it was actually encoded in UTF-8. (Yes, UTF-8 is a form of UNICODE, but in GEDCOMs, UNICODE means UTF-8). I added an exception to the program so that if the file says it is encoded in UNICODE, and the generator is GENJ, then set the character encoding to UTF-8 for read in.

Also, I apologize, but we do not yet officially support right-to-left languages on WeRelate. We do plan on eventually supporting this, but it will be a little while as we have some other functionality we want to get done before we do that. However, we really appreciate your interest in WeRelate! -Nathan 00:14, 20 January 2008 (EST)

Thank you so much, I really appreciate it!--Neuman5022 04:42, 22 January 2008 (EST)
