I am also getting the same error. What I have found is that the report works OK in lilac until I have a choice problem that has been answered, in which case I get the above error. I haven’t tested any other problem types.

To reproduce I create a course from scratch with a single choice problem in it and then submit an answer and then run the student responses report, then I get the above error.

The reason that this report is broken appears to be because of this PR #27271 by @dave . minimal_init=True was added to the constructor arguments for LoncapaProblem in order to make it run more efficiently - but some preprocessing of the inputs is then not done in LoncapaProblem.__init__ which results in the above exception when attempting to look up the human readable answer.

The easy fix is to revert back to minimal_init=False , but not sure what that will mean for @dave 's requirement

My apologies. :frowning: I had to revert that one five days later, so I think it’s just cherry-picking the revert into lilac.

Revert PR to open-release/lilac.master:

Ok, thanks @dave! I will take it out too.

Hello @james_imsimbi I am facing the same issue any solution you found that might be helpful ?
