Error on my tree

Beitrag von ildiko »

I just loaded my GEDCOM to this site and it says: Loop in database: Antiochus II.0 Theos King of Syria is his/her own ancestor.
I can't find Antiochus II.0 Theos King of Syria on my tree.

What can I do?

Thanks,
Ildiko

Hello,

You should correct the information on your software otherwise you will overwrite it next time you will import a GEDCOM file to Geneanet.

To correct it on Geneanet, you must first delete the root:

https://my.geneanet.org/arbre/options/parametres.php?view=souche

But remember to correct the loop on your software...

But I am the root, I should delete myself? What would that do?

It won't delete you: there will no longer be a root, that's all.

I just upload my GEDCOM file and trying to set up the page. I got an error stating that I need to set up the ROOT person in order to search or organized my names. The error refer to Fernandez de Montemayor, Alonso (Señor de Alcaudete)

I try to resolve the issue but remains. What do I need to do to fix it?

Go to https://my.geneanet.org/arbre/options/parametres.php?view=souche to select the root person of your tree. Typically, it is someone from the youngest generation. In my case, my daughter.

The system wont let me select the root person because of "a loop' with one of the members in my GEDCOM file.

In this case, go to https://my.geneanet.org/arbre/verification.php?view=donnees to see exactly where the error is, then break the incorrect filiation that causes the loop.

Alonso FERNÁNDEZ de MONTEMAYOR is his own father or grandfather... in your family tree. You'd better fix this error in RootsMagic then export a new GEDCOM file to Geneanet. If you fix the error in Geneanet but not in RootsMagic, you will overwrite the fix next time you will update your Geneanet family tree via a GEDCOM file.
