Add new component on mindprobe

lt_kn_char

Hey all,

I'm currently trying to setup an OSWeb experiment as JATOS file on Mindprobe. While testing we realized that somehow the experiment does not run on the Safari Browser, so that we now evaluate how to deal with this. One idea is to present participants an introductionary html page, explaining that the following experiment does not run on Safari. For this I tried adding the html file as a new component to my JATOS study on mindprobe. Though yet I do not understand how. So my potentially very basic question is, how can I add an external HTML-file to my study in mindprobe and what is the "study asset" to which i have to add the component?

Thanks in advance,

Leo

Hi Leo,

We have a page in the docs explaining that, check it out: https://www.jatos.org/Combine-two-pre-written-studies-into-one.html

Basically you should do this locally first, then import it into Mindprobe.

Hey @elisa,

thanks for the source! I am now trying to develop and combine the components but face a rather early problem minding JATOS. When I try to start a local instance and then open the localhost:9000/jatos connection, the page seems to never load properly. I do not see the images or correct page layout, neither do all functions work. Is that a common problem and do you have an idea how to fix it?

Hi Leo,

No, that's not a common problem. weird. Which version are you using locally? On which OS? Can you open the browser console and check if you see any errors?

Thanks for the rapid reply! I'm using the newest version on github (3.8.5 i think) on windows. I think I receive the usual command output when running the loader.bat:

Keine Instanzen verfügbar.

Starting JATOS ... please wait

Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM warning: Ignoring option --illegal-access=permit; support was removed in 17.0

started

To use JATOS type 127.0.0.1:9000 in your browser's address bar

Aditionally a screenshot of how localhost:9000 is looking after I log in:

Hi Leo,

Let me chime in here. It seems you are using the wrong version of Java. JATOS still needs 11 or 8. If unsure install the bundled version, JATOS with Java.

Hey Kristian,

ahh thanks that explains. I misread and thought it must be a version above those :D

Thanks a lot!
