Can't call a VI from remote server

I have a VI running on a labview development machine(Labview 2010), the main function is handling excel report using report generator. I follow the link http://www.ni.com/white-paper/14469/en to set up labview machine and teststand machine respectly. But when I tried to call the VI from remote server, it is still not able to load the VI front panel and show the connectors. See the attachment. It looks like it still trying to load VI from local drive because it can't find the builded-in subvis for report generator function.
What should I do to make it work? Thanks!

For those interested in the solution, the problem turned out to be two things.
The first is if you want to be able to load a prototype of the VI in TestStand, you will need to either share the VI or create a dummy VI. If the shared VI uses subVIs you do not have access to, then you are better of creating a dummy VI that has matching connector panes.
The second problem had to do with how the remote VI path was specified. If you have shared the VI, then you will enter in the shared folder path as your remote VI path. If you have not shared it, then you will need to enter in the VI path as it is on the remote machine.

HOw to delete files from remote server?

Hi,
I want to delete files from a directory on remote server.
I use the following command to delete on current server:
find $srcdir -mtime +90 -name "COR*.txt" -exec rm -f {} \;
Now, how can I delete files from remote server ?
Thanks!

Some possible options:
1. There exists SSH implementation for Windows.
2. You can make a workaround. You can setup share for specific/wanted directory.
Then you can mount it on Linux machine and execute command localy and delete files "localy" in mounted directory.
3. You can setup FTP server on Windows machine and do that remotely via FTP commands.

How can i call a servlet from a servlet ?

Hello,
Can i call a Servlet from within a Servlet ?
and is it "right thing" to Do ?
Thanks

JMO, but I wouldn't do it like this.
Don't have a remote object like a servlet doing database queries for your app. That will mean TWO network hops for every query if the database resides on another machine. The network is the biggest bottleneck you've got.
Write a JavaBean that does the database stuff for you and just have the first servlet instantiate it when it needs it. A Bean has a better chance of being reused, too. Write a TableGateway or DAO for your object.
Or write an EJB to do it.
The only time I've done a servlet-to-servlet connection like that was for one servlet running in a DMZ that would authenticate a user and then forward the request to another servlet running inside the second firewall.
I wouldn't encapsulate database query logic in a servlet like that. JMO - MOD

How to get the entire database from remote server to my server

Hi,
I am running a web application with sample data. Now i need to access the original data through this application. But the original data is located in the other server which is located in Mumbai.
Now i need the copy of that database to my system(Chennai). with minimum effort.
It is very urgent...
Thanks in advance...
Chaitanya.

Hi
Nicolas is right. You can also take advantage of exp/imp utility. That would not only get the entire db in one file but also the size will be a fraction of the entire db size.You can search for DataPump (that uses expdp and impdp) utility to expedite the export/import process.
For simple exp/imp you can do the following.
From Remote site(MUMBAI) issue
ORACLE_HOME\BIN\exp file=c:\fulldbexp09sept05.dmp log=c:\fulldbexp09sept05log.log FULL=Y userid=system/pwd@connectstringOfyourdb
Get a copy of fulldbexp09sept05.dmp and place it on your local drive in Chennai
On Local Site (Chennai)
ORACLE_HOME\BIN\imp file=fulldbexp09sept05.dmp log=fulldbimp09sept05 FULL=Y userid=system/pwd@connectstringOfyourlocaldb
By this you can take advantage of having a different db name on remote and local sites. This is a fairly easy exercise. You just need to be sure that in your TNSNAMES.ORA you have correctly defined the connectString for your db.
PS: Create a database on local server with default settings.
Make use of following to create appropriate tablespaces and users if you desire ie.
1. On Remote Site open SQLPLUS session and issue this command to find out the tablespaces, datafiles and their sizes
SQL>SELECT SUBSTR(file_name,1,60) FILE_NAME, tablespace_name, bytes
FROM dba_data_files
GROUP BY tablespace_name, file_name;
Now create the tablespaces on local sites using the result of the above query.
2. On Remote Site open SQLPLUS session and issue this command to spool user creation script.
SQL>spool c:\createuserscript.lst
SQL> SELECT 'CREATE USER ||' IDENTIFIED BY VALUES '||'"'||PASSWORD||'"'||' DEFAULT TABLESPACE '||DEFAULT_TABLESPACE||' TEMPORARY TABLESPACE '||TEMPORARY_TABLESPACE||';'
FROM dba_users
WHERE username NOT IN ('SYS','SYSTEM')
ORDER BY username;
SQL>spool off
Now edit this createuserscript using any editor and replace " with '. Copy this file to the local server and run it using @. This will create appropriate users.
Let me know if you have any problems.
Regards
Adnan Mashhadi
Nicolas I am not sure as how to eliminate the " in my script. Any comment will be appreciated.

Debug flex app loaded from remote server

Hi,
I'm developing a flex app which gets loaded from a remote
server and it connects using amf to that server and gets some data.
Now, I can't test from within the flex builder ide, as the URL will
be empty. When I test using IE/Firefox pointing to the remote
server URL where this debug.html is mounted, the swf asks for a
host ip/name where a flash/flex debugger runs. When I give
localhost/127.0.0.1, it fails and displays the dialog box again. Is
there a way to connect the swf from remote server to connect to a
debug console inside the FB2 ide?

Well, I ran all commands shipped with FB2and found out that
fdb does connect and allows to "continue". Still the in IDE
developing experience and quick turn around isn't there. Is there a
way to get the URL from which the swf was loaded from within the
swf, so that if its a remote server, I can get data from it, else
its in debug state, so I can get data from some hard coded
host.

How can you move the objects from one server to another?

how can you move the objects from one server to another?

Hi,
Collecting objects for Transporting
1. rsa1->transport connection
2. left panel choose 'object type', middle panel choose 'infocube' and 'select objects'
3. then choose your infocube and 'transfer'
4. will go to right panel, choose collection mode 'manual' and grouping only 'necessary objects'
5. after objects collection finished, create request
6. If they are $TMP, then change the package.
7. When you click the Save on the change package, it will prompt for transport. Here you can provide an existing open transport request number, or if you like here itself you can create a new one.
8. You can check the request in SE09 to confirm.
Releasing Transport Request
Lets say you are transporting from BWD to BWQ
Step 1: In BWD go to TCode SE10
Step 2: Find the request and release it (Truck Icon or option can be found by right click on request #)
Note: First release the child request and then the parent request
Steps below are to import transport (generally done by basis )
Step 1: In BWQ go to Tcode STMS
Step 2: Click on Import queue button
Step 3: Double Click on the line which says BWQ (or the system into which transport has to be imported)
Step 4: Click on refresh button
Step 5: High light the trasnport request and import it (using the truck icon)

Can I call a function from a dll in LabVIEW that returns:double*string and int.?

I have a function from a dll that return a double* string and an integer. How can I call this function from LabVIEW? There is a possibility to work in LabVIEW with a double* string?

Two difficulties I can see with this.
First the application seems to allocate the array of references
internally and return a pointer to that array. In that case there must
be another function which then deallocates that array again.
Then you would need to setup the function call to have a pointer to an
int32 number for the deviceList parameter and another pointer to int32
one for the plItems parameter.
Then create another function in your DLL similar to this:
HRESULT WRAPIEnumExtractDevice(WRAPI_NDIS_DEVICE *lpDeviceList, long i,
CHAR lpszDeviceName, LONG lenDeviceName,
CHAR lpszDeviceDesc, LONG lenDeviceDesc)
if (!lpDeviceList)
return ERROR_INV_PARAMETER;
if (lpDeviceList[i].pDeviceName)
WideCharToMultiByte(CP_ACP, 0,
pDeviceList[i].pDeviceName, -1,
lpszDeviceName, lenDeviceName,
NULL, NULL);
if (lpDeviceList[i].pDeviceName)
WideCharToMultiByte(CP_ACP, 0,
pDeviceList[i].pDeviceDescription, -1,
lpszDeviceDesc, lenDeviceDesc,
NULL, NULL);
return NO_ERROR;
Pass the int32 you got from the first parameter of the previous call as
a simple int32 passed by value to this function (and make sure you don't
call this function with a higher index than (plItems - 1) returned from
the first function.

Drag and drop from remoter server

Drag and drop from remoter server I get this<img src="../My Documents/SITKA/Unnamed Site 6/4coldfront_jacketAD.jpg" width="207" height="207" longdesc="http://www.jonsered.ws" /> what I want is this <img src="http://www.jonsered.ws/coldfront_jacketAD.jpg" width="207" height="207" longdesc= />
the first one does not work on the web
How is this done?

When you click on a file (drag & drop) in Remote Server panel, DW GETS the file and places it in your Local Site folder.
Your local site is defined in DW as ./My Documents/SITKA/Unnamed Site 6/. Hence the path name change.
Make sense?

Can LabVIEW call a function from a .sys file or is LabVIEW limited to dll access?

My vendor has sent me a .sys file with functions accessing their hardware. Can i call these function from labview directly or do I have to wrapper the .sys with a dll?

Well a sys file is a kernel device driver. LabVIEW does not have any direct way of accessing such a driver. The way kernel drivers are accessed is usually through a DLL which makes calls to WinAPI functions such as CreateFile(), ReadFile(), WriteFile(), CloseHandle() and DeviceIORequest(). Since these WinAPI calls are basically just DLL calls too, you could theoretically use the Call Library Node to call them and access the kernel device driver in such a way.
However for any kernel device driver with more than one or two device driver calls, it will certainly be easier in terms of development, debugging and maintenance of the code, to write actually a dedicated DLL in C/C++ for this device driver and access that DLL from LabVIEW, especially if you consider the LabVIEW datatype limitations when designing the DLL interface (Basically this same DLL can then be called from any other Windows development environment, be it Visual Basic (similar datatype limitation as LabVIEW), Delphi, (Visual) C, LabVIEW or also various scripting environments like Python and Lua.
Some of the necessary WindAPI calls are rather involved and pose quite a bit of trouble to get the parameter data right in LabVIEw.

Can we call a BDC from REPORT program.

hi
can anybody tell me that
can we call a BDC from REPORT program.
thanks&regards

Yes, It can be called.
Infact you can generate a program from SHDB recording and in the program generated you can put necessary report logic and call the BDC/CALL TRANSACTION as required.
Please check here for a sample program,
