Application Builder hangs on Processing Merge Errors.vi

I am having a problem building my applciation as an executeable in 8.2.1.  During the build process, LabVIEW hangs indeffinately while Processing Merge Errors.vi.  I have mass compiled my source directory, and my LabVIEW directory.  I have even repaired all of the NI software that I have installed.  I have also created a new project and build specification from scratch in case that was corrupted.  I created a test project where the only VI was a call to Merge Errors.vi and this build just fine into an .exe.  I am at a loss to what the problem is or how I can fix it.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.
thanks,

Hi Faraclas,
What operating system are you using? Does it only hang when you have this vi? Can
you create an executable without this vi?

  • Application Builder comes up with generic error #42

    Building a large application that has previously built without a problem in LabVIEW 2009 SP1. 
      The error message returned is -
    "Error 42 occurred at D:\EMSolutions\Automation\PTMP\System Measurement Functions\System Measurements.llb\PTMP - Tx Performance.vi
    Possible reason(s):
    LabVIEW:  Generic error."
    Would appreciate some clues as to what might cause this error.
    Herbert Niesler

    Have had it happen to me again and managed to play around a bit and found the following -
    1.  The error 42 occurs in relation to a Start Up vi (I have multiple startup vi's in this project).  Doesn't happen to any other vi.
    2.  If I remove the offending vi from the project, the error 42 then occurs on another startup vi.
    3.  Putting that vi back in and making it a startup vi again triggers the problem with that vi.
    4.  Then I opened the offending startup vi (note that the project was compiled with all startup vi's closed).  On building the application the error 42 occurred on another startup vi (the same vi as happend in 2.).
    5.  When I opened this 2nd offending vi and did a build, I had success.
    Now I realise I have not seen the problem before because I usually did a build with all the startup vi's open.  Its only recently that I have started doing builds with all front panels closed.
    So advice at this stage is - open the front panels of your startup vi's and that should get rid of the error 42.

  • Error 10 occurred When createing an executable with application Builder?

    Problem: I am using the LabVIEW Application Builder to create an executable from my VI. When I run the Application Builder, I receive the following error:
    Error 10 occurred at Copy in Win Install Copy Redistribution Files.vi->Win Install Create.vi->Dist Call Create Installer.vi->Builder Application.vi
    Possible Reason(s)
    Labview : Duplicate Path
    or
    NI-488 : New I/O attempted with old I/O in progress
    Why do i receive this error and how can i resolv this issue?

    Jiang,
    It sounds like this could be an overwrite issue. From the file path you specified, I can tell you that the error is occurring in creating the installer for your executable. Are you specifying an installer directory where you have already created an installer of the same name? If so, is that directory read only? Make sure that write privileges are enabled for you installer directory, and if that doesn't fix anything, try specifying a different installer directory.
    If none of these suggestions take care of the problem, please post a simple example that illustrates the problem (i.e. a simple VI and a copy of the build file). We can then try to replicate the problem and troubleshoot it. What version of LabVIEW are you using?

  • Error 7 occurred at Open VI Reference with Application Builder

    Using Labview 5.1, I am building an application where all the vi's are placed in a single .LLB file. I have one top level vi (with sub-vi's), and one vi that is opened by the Open VI command. The program runs fine with labview installed. I want to make an executable file. I select the top level vi and select the vi that is opened by the Open VI command as a dynamically loaded file. I get an error when I attempt to build the file.
    "Error 7 occured at Open VI Reference in Dist Build LLB Image.vi -> Dist Build App Image.vi -> Build application.vi"

    Dear Sir;
    There are two things that are good to try:
    First, create the application in a folder that is closer to the root directory (e.g., c:\myApp). There is a limit to the length (or depth) of the path name to your application's target directory, so, if you are choosing a too long path you might get an error.
    Second: The Application Builder reads certain information from the VI in order to determine how to build the executable. To avoid possible errors, either in the build process or in the built executable, make sure the VIs are LabVIEW 5.1 VIs. You can convert your VIs to LabVIEW 5.1 VIs by using the Mass Compile feature (File >> Mass Compile) in LabVIEW before you build your executable. The Mass Compile feature will allow you to select either a directory or a LabVIEW
    .llb file to compile.

  • Error message "VI is not executable"! Need help with Application Builder

    Hello,
    I have a problem with an application, built with the Application Builder. I have read some threads about the problem I have, but I still don't know a solution.
    When I run my front panel from LabVIEW, everything is good. So, now I created an application (and an installer) to be able to run it on other PCs as well. This application does not work. Everytime I start it on my PC, I get the error "VI is not executable. ...". I read in several forums solutions for this error, but I cannot fix it! I've changed my properties for the builder, but with no success. Perhaps, anybody has more ideas, what's the problem.
    To get a better idea from my project, here a little description of it:
    In the block diagram there is a while loop which is continuously runned. In this loop I only set some properties for the layout of the front panel, such as decorations which will be hidden/shown and changes of colours of indicators... For the rest, it waits for a click on the button "Start" in the front panel. After that, a DLL is called to communicate with a USB device. Some measurements are carried out and the DLL is closed. I hope, you can get a global idea from my block diagram...
    I use LabVIEW 8.5, the DLL is a third-party DLL, which we wrote on our own. But I think the DLL works properly, if it is called from a C# application it works and it works, too, by calling it from LabVIEW when I am in development mode.
    It's a project for university and I'm just a beginner in LabVIEW, so I don't have so much experiences in it, but I think i improved my knowlegde about LabVIEW very well in the last weeks!
    So, i hope to get an answer soon (the deadline for the project is not soooo far away )
    If you need more information, please let it know...
    I would be very grateful if there is someone with a working solution...
    Kind regards from the Netherlands,
    Sebastian

    Sebastian,
    Your architecture makes it very difficult to debug this and other problems.  Does the error message mention which VI is causing the problem?  It is very important to wire your error clusters everywhere.  In LabVIEW, when a node throws an error (Error.Status = T), future nodes do not execute.  At the end, place an error cluster indicator that you can see on your front panel.  When an error posts, you can right click the indicator (even in a compiled application) and select "Explain Error".
    This is a start, but you really need to push this into a queued-state machine before this gets any more complicated.  As it were, if anything in your loop hangs, your whole application hangs.  See attached for a queued-message handler (not advisable for actual applications, but you get the point.  You would want to have a type defined enum in lieu of strings, and shared data between states differently, etc.)

  • Error "cannot find terminal hotpoint in wire..." during application build.

    Hello,
    I'm trying to compile a TestStand 2.0.1 Custom LabVIEW Operator Interface with the LabVIEW 6.1 application builder. During the build process I get six(6) error prompts 'cannot find terminal hotpoint in wire...' and the builder stops and prompts another error that says the one of the VI's 'is not executable'. However, I can open the VI and there are no errors on it and no asterisk on the titlebar. There is only one strange thing I noticed in the VI Hierarchy browser, where for this VI and some others, it display an untitled (new) VI not connected to anything (!?) that does not appear in the block diagram. If you reopen the VI, the mysterious VI is gone.
     The interesting thing is that I can successfully build the application if I try it with another Windows XP sp2 computer with the same exact LabVIEW and TestStand versions. Could anyone help me out here and let know what this error means. I can't find any reference to it here or in google. Thanks!

    Thanks  to Kevin in tech support for investigating these errors. I did find after much work one of the VI's that is causing the "terminal hotpoint in wire..." error. It's a GET EXE STRINGS.VI in the custom OI. I have screen shots of it, but I don't know how to load them here... Anyway, it appears to happen on this particular VI because it has more than 20 connector pain terminals, but not all of the connections appear to be setup in the connector pane. However, this does not prevent the VI or the calling VI (TestStand - Execution Display) from running normally or even displaying a broken arrow (Why Not?). I changed the VI and removed the unused connections and the problem seems to be gone. I still need to find one more VI that is doing this. I also don't know why my Laptop is able to build the OI application OK w/o errors and other PC's always stop the application builder because of these errors.
    Any other insight on this issue is greatly appreciated. Thanks,
    David A. Gaud

    Thanks for the response. However, I looked through the article, and it does not seem to be applicable to this case because I am not attempting to include any of the listed drivers. For my program, I am only referencing standard Labview VIs and one DLL driver for the instrument I am working with. 
    I actually tried simplifying the problem by creating an exe build of a while loop with a button. When I tried to create an installer for this program, I got a very similar error.
    Ultimately, I found that I was able to build an installer if I performed some combination of building an exe of my program, running the exe, stopping it, keeping the program in memory, etc. I am not entirely sure what is happening, and it is very convoluted. It is not a reliable way for me to get an installer to build for my program.

  • Build dll error in application builder 8.6.1

    Hello,
    I get always an error in the LV 8.6 application builder, when I build a dll. There is only one function in it, that has a string and an error input, and nothing else. I attach a screenshot of the VI prototype, and hier is the error description:
    Error 1 occurred at Building DLL.
    A component needed for Application Builder does not support the required functionality. This might have been caused by installing an older version of LabVIEW after this version was installed. Reinstall the current LabVIEW version to correct this issue.
    Possible reason(s):
    LabVIEW:  An input parameter is invalid. For example if the input is a path, the path might contain a character not allowed by the OS such as ? or @.
    =========================
    NI-488:  Command requires GPIB Controller to be Controller-In-Charge.
    After that I reinstalled LV8.6, I tried to reinstall only the 8.6 app builder, but no success.

    Hello,
    thank you for the reply.
    I have solved the problem. I uninstalled the last installed LV version, this was 8.0. Then ran appbuilder again in 8.6, then I have got an instruction to run applibs\lvdllbuilder\lvdb.exe. Since then works.

  • Error while executing action SMCO in VMS Build-to-Order process.

    Hello All,
    When I execute the Action 'SMCO' for service order confirmation, the system says that the action cannot be executed due to the error: "Actual date(s) is in the future (check parameters)". Also the Actual start & End Dates are blank in the service order. This is creating a problem such that the Action 'SMIO'-Create Billing request for service order cannot be executed for completion of the Build-to-Order process.
    Is there any customizing setting in ECC - Customer Service (CS) component which is causing this error?
    Thanks in Advance,
    Pramod

    HI Kaustubh,
    Thank you for the response.
    The Action matrices I use are ECMM (Primary) and ECSD (Secondary) and the set up is perfect. I was able to do it earlier and we also had a detailed system walkthrough but it seems to be different now may be due to some customizing changes.
    It seems to be an issue with the setup in customer service (CS) which is controlling our  VMS. I am executing the actions in the sequence SMNO (service notification) then SMOR (service order) and then SMCO (service order confirmation). Now the issue seems to be with service order confirmation where my Actual Start and End dates are blank which should not be the case to confirm the service order (SMCO).
    Pleaes let me know if you need more information on this.
    Regards,
    Pramod

    Scott,
    Thanks for the reply.
    I will try my best to explain, following is the navigation:
    1. After logging into my workspace --> Click on Application Builder --> Click either on a custom application or sample application --> I get report error: ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: NULL index table key value (Default View of the pages is set to Details)
    2. If I change the page[s] View to Icons then there is no error.

  • Application builder error 1055

    ed. cross-post: http://lavag.org/topic/18047-application-builder-error-1055/
    Hello everyone
    I have a big problem with building applications lately. The build is running fine until the end, when it throws:
    Error 1055 occurred at Property Node in VISL_findDependentVISvr.vi->VISL_findAndProcessVISvrList.vi->VISL_detectAndCopyVISvr.vi->AB_Engine_Copy_CustomIOServer_Files.vi->AB_EXE.lvclass:Copy_Files.vi->AB_Build.lvclass:Build.vi->AB_Application.lvclass:Build.vi->AB_EXE.lvclass:Build.vi->AB_Engine_Build.vi->AB_Build_Invoke.vi->AB_Build_Invoke.vi.ProxyCaller
    Possible reason(s):
    LabVIEW: Object reference is invalid.
    Has anyone seen this error in app builder? Does anyone have any idea how can I resolve this problem?

    Lennard, Valko
    I'm using LV 2013 f2. Let me give you some more details and... The story how I fixed it:
    The project is pretty big (~1500 VIs) and highly object-oriented (~300 classes). It has RT (PXI) and PC part. Some of the classes are shared between PC and RT. The problem with build was present only on PC - build for RT was ok.
    I had DSC module installed, but it was not used in this project at all. Despite that, when I found information from Lennards link, I've tried to build it using "Enable Enhanced DSC Run-Time support". It didn't help. I started to wonder if the sharing of classes between RT and PC has something to do with the problem. So I refactored the project, splitted it into two projects (one for PC, one for PXI) and reduced number of shared classes (especially some specific classes, which implement "threads"). Afterwards, the build could be done just fine, but only in those refactored projects.
    Now for the plot twist: before refactoring, I've tried to build the project on another computer. It was build without any problems! So I started to look for the differences. First of all, just before the build I've updated one of our internal libraries in VIPM and changed its name - so it was my main suspect (I needed to update dependencies in project as the change of VIPM package name changed it folder in vi.lib). This + disconnecting code from VIs and I though that I've just found another way of destroying LV compiler completely. Still, I couldn't fix it in any way...
    As per Valko suggestion I've uninstalled DSC module completely. Once again - my project does not explicitly use this module at all! Removing the module didn't broke anything in the project. And guess what? The build was done without problems! I've even tried to do this build again on the code revision before refactoring, and the build was done!
    tl;dr: REALLY NI!!?!? REALLY!? YOU'VE BROKEN SOMETHING IN THE MODULE WHICH I DON"T EVEN EXPLICITLY USE AND MADE ME LOSE FEW DAYS OF WORK JUST TO FIND IT OUT? REEEEAAAAALYYYYY!?

  • During an application build I received an error 7 for a missing source NI vi 1d linear evaluation.vi

    During an application build, I got "Error 7 occurred at c:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 6\vi.lib\Analysis\8numerc.llb\1D Linear Evaluation.vi - source does not exist".
    This existed in Labview 5.1.1. Was it deleted in 6.0?

    No, this VI is in the following location "Functions >> Analyze >> Mathematics >> Array Operations>>1D Linear Evaluation.vi"
    Perhapse this in a package (Advanced Analysis) that is not included in your version of LabVIEW. You may need to upgrade to get these VIs, or you can copy them over from your Labview 5.1.1 installation.
