I just uloaded a precomp archive from current development version in the download area (version 1.1.1335). You can test it on Fedora with rpmbuild (see http://home.gna.org/auto-qcm/download-fedora).

Thank you so much!.

My .tex file can be compiled now. However, in the instruction from http://project.auto-multiple-choice.net/issues/32

"After data capture and marking, use automatic association with "Pre-association" setting for "Code name for automatic association"."

I can't seem to find this option. The only one I have is (None), which will not allow me to do automatic marking.

Am I missing something?

Did you use the \AMCassociation command in your source file?

I did. That's why I had the error with the previous version.
My CSV file has a field name "id" with unique values.

My code:

\newcommand{\subject}{
  \onecopy{1}{    

  %%% debut de l'en-tête des copies :    
    \AMCformBegin    

    \AMCassociation{\id}
    \begin{minipage}{1.0\linewidth}
      \namefield{\fbox{    
        \begin{minipage}{1.0\linewidth}
        Name: \Large\bf \name{} \ten{} \hfill \includegraphics[height=1cm] \logo{}
        \end{minipage}
      }
    }\end{minipage}

    \AMCform

Can you send you project directory?

Attached is the project files.

Option "Pre-association" is available with my AMC...

If you don't have this, can you open the project in debugging mode (from Help menu) and send the log file produced?
However, you also have to select your students list file with the "set file" button and your ID column ("id") for "Primary key from this list".

Attached is the log file.

The version from GUI: 1.1.1335 (svn:1341)

One thing though: I installed the new version without uninstalling the last version I use. Would this cause any problem?

can you tell me what is the output of the following command:

perl -MAMC::Data -le 'print AMC::Data->new("/home/nle/MC-Projects/auto-association1/data")->module("layout")->pre_association();'

Can you also try again after unchecking Desktop notifications in Edit/Preferences/Display? It seems that there is something wrong with notifications...

[nle@fedora17 tmp]$ perl -MAMC::Data -le 'print AMC::Data->new("/home/nle/MC-Projects/auto-association1/data")->module("layout")->pre_association();'
WARNING: statement request with no transaction -- AssocNumber

WARNING: sql_single with no transaction -- DBI::st=HASH(0x8c7e770)

Hah, that's what it was. Unchecking the notification fixed it.

I would like to thank you very much for you amazing support. I do support myself and can't even compare to your level :).

Thanks for your compliment. I'm glad we finally found where is the problem.
If you have any idea to fix it (either something missing to install, or some way to detect the problem before it shows, or both)... Which window manager do you use?

I run XWin-Server from cygwin on Win7. AMC is under Fedora17/Vmware.

It looks like many people have the same kinda problem (for other software). I will definitely come back and check out this once I am through with this crunch.
