Week4: Assignment submission validate error

Hi
All the outputs from notebook are all tested good, but every time I submitted my notebook, it gives 0/100, and showing this validating error. Any ideas?

im also getting this on jupyter

Hi @Mubsi is this a known issue with Coursera submissions?

Yes, @albertovilla, there’s seems to be something wrong with the “validation”. Can you put this post up as an issue ? I’ll take a look at it in a bit. Thanks.

I have the same problem too

Hey @box7boxer, can you share your grader output so we could help you better ? Thank you.

Hi,
Any update about this issue?

Hey @bigballerbing , the error specifies that the metadata is corrupted. From what I have seen happen with other students with this exact error is that they unknowingly change some code in the assignment which they shouldn’t have had.

So I would recommend the same to you.

SAVE YOUR WORK ON YOUR LOCAL MACHINE, or rename your assignment file, and then get a fresh copy of the assignment form the “Help” menu on the top right. After getting the fresh copy, fill it using your solutions from your previous copy and then try submitting.

Let me know how it goes.

It worked! Appreciate your help @Mubsi , thanks a lot!

My apologise for not recommending this before. I must have been distracted with other issues.

Happy learning!

How to do

@Pranay75, this thread is three years cold. If you are having an issue, I recommend you start a new thread so that the mentors can find it more easily.

In your new thread, please include the details of exactly the problem you are having. Screen capture images showing any error messages are very helpful.

Note: Please do not include your code for the assignment.
