can't import edges table

[christopher]

Hi Gephi community,

I'm having trouble importing data into Gephi 0.9.1 from a CSV file. Importing nodes works normally, but Gephi won't accept any edges CSV I give it without showing the error message: "Edges table needs a 'Source' and 'Target' column with nodes ids". A simple example is attached. I have tried importing nodes first, then edges. I have tried integers and strings (or rather numbers and letters as node ids). I also checked TSV and CSV files, and tried shortening the edge table to a source and target column only, but still get this error message.

I have checked for updates in Gephi, and tried this both on Mac OS 10.9 and Xubuntu 16.04 and get the same result. It's probably an obvious step I have missed - can anyone help please?

Cheers
Chris

Hi Chris,
Make sure your column headers don't have trailing spaces.

Thanks, this got me back on track. It wasn't a trailing space, but an internal one where I thought there was only a tab. Removing all whitespace and using comma as the delimiter got it working.

Cheers
