# Adding principal component to collection returns an error ## Tags * assigned: alex * status: unclear * priority: high * type: bug * keywords: collections, from github ## Members * rupertoverall ## Description => https://github.com/genenetwork/genenetwork2/issues/559 From GitHub ### Describe the bug When calcuating principal components from a correlation matrix, attempting to add one or more PCs to the collection returns the following error: ``` GeneNetwork tux01:gene:2.11-rc2-testing-73131a84f http://www.genenetwork.org/collections/view?uc_id=a7e8dce1-f6a3-464d-85eb-e5a7696ce0b6 (12:12PM UTC Mar 01, 2021) Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/guix-profiles/gn-latest-20201216/lib/python3.8/site-packages/flask/app.py", line 1950, in full_dispatch_request rv = self.dispatch_request() File "/usr/local/guix-profiles/gn-latest-20201216/lib/python3.8/site-packages/flask/app.py", line 1936, in dispatch_request return self.view_functions[rule.endpoint](**req.view_args) File "/export/local/home/gn2/production/gene/wqflask/wqflask/collect.py", line 194, in view_collection name, dataset_name = atrait.split(':') ValueError: not enough values to unpack (expected 2, got 1) ``` ### To Reproduce * Add transcript traits to a collection. * Calculate the correlation matrix. * Select One or more principal components. * Click 'Add' to add this to the collection. NOTE: This was done with the 'BXD Aged hippocampus individual data' dataset (GN712). ### Expected behavior The PC should be treated as a normal trait and added to the collection. ### Screenshots Environment setup (please complete the following information): Run on 'http://www.genenetwork.org/' through Firefox on MacOS Mojave.
