read_stata issue · Issue #11526 · pandas-dev/pandas (original) (raw)

I have the following error when reading a bunch of stata file

ValueError: Version of given Stata file is not 104, 105, 108, 113 (Stata 8/9), 114 (Stata 10/11), 115 (Stata 12), 117 (Stata 13), or 118 (Stata 14)

I do not know the way to check the stata version of the file but I suspect it is fairly recent.
Opening the file with stata 12 and saving it solves the problem.
But I do not have stata installed on my machine and I cannot do that everytime.
How can I check the version of the file ?
Is there anybody kind enough to have a look at the problematic file (personnal email please) ?
I suspect encoding problem. data is a sample of a french survey with many string with accent etc.

Thanks for help
