Error message UnknownFormatConversionException: Conversion =

Post by katia »

Dear PLS team and users,

I am a PhD student and I am going to use Smart PLS for my PhD thesis

In order to get acquainted with this algorithm, I tried to run the software on a small database collected during an exploratory study (N=29)

After several tries, I keep obtaining the same error message: UnknownFormatConversionException: Conversion = ' '

My database contains only numerical variables.

What could the reason of the error message be?

Finally, the calculations were successfully carried out simply by switching to the English interface (previous unsuccessful attemps were made using the French interface)

Maybe this will be helpful to other users
