Error Messages on Startup

[mgochoa57]

When starting CommStatOne for the first time, I got this error:
SyntaxWarning: invalid escape sequence '\D'
OS_Directed = "\DIRECTED.TXT"

This warning occurs in two places:

1. commstat.py line 453
2. datareader.py line 74

I changed the above lines from:
OS_Directed = "\DIRECTED.TXT"
to:
OS_Directed = r"\DIRECTED.TXT"

Is this part of everyone's install? Is this the correct fix?

Another Error:

A work-around for the DataManager launch failures is to comment out line 439 in commdata.py by inserting a hash character:

438 m = folium.Map(
439 #tiles='Stamen Terrain',
440 zoom_start=4,
441 location=coordinate
442
443 )

This looks like there is something missing. It also looks like an easy code fix.

Has CommStatOne been archived?
Is anybody willing to pick this up and work on it some more?

I had to do the same on both lines. Plus a few other areas that I can't remember now. Basically I just chased each error down one by one. I'm running windows 10. Yup that's the fix for now I believe.

If you want support for a specific error , you need to include enough information to diagnose it.

1. What platform ? (Win , Lin, Arm ?)
2. What Python version
3. Paste a copy of the commdata,py that shows the error .
4. Did you you search the groups io for the issue ? This software is 3 yrs old pretty much every issue is covered there .
