Changing value when reading from file

When I am reading from a text tab-delimited file labview is returning a changed value. For example, the value should be 337478.47 but labview is returning 336727. I have tried changing the array to EXT, it is currently DBL, and that didnt seem to change anything.
I am using LabView 8.

Your numbers are fine. Just right-click on your indicators and select the desired format and precision. (By default, it only shows 6 significant digits).
See if this works.

Getting repeated values when reading from a text file.

I need to read from a text file. When the token encounters a particular word (command) I need to read the next line and perform some actions. However, this part is working but it is repeating the values again and again until it encounters the next particular word (command). Hope that someone will help me out, as always when I posted a problem in these forums.

Thanks for your interest. Please ignore SetOperations class, it is just the class containing the methods and it works correctly since I checked it without reading from a text file. I marked the part where I think lies my problem in class SetTestOperations.
The information in the text file is as follows:
membera
Hillman
membera
Skoda
membera
Honda
membera
Toyota
and the result is:
[0] Hillman
Number of set members: 1
[0] Hillman
[1] Skoda
Number of set members: 2
[0] Hillman
[1] Skoda
[2] Honda
Number of set members: 3
[0] Hillman
[1] Skoda
[2] Honda
[3] Toyota
Number of set members: 4
instead of just one set:
[0] Hillman
[1] Skoda
[2] Honda
[3] Toyota
Number of set members: 4
Hope it is easier to understand like this.

ERROR WSNAT_CAT:1287 When Reading from file

Hi,
I'm new in Tuxedo and hope you understand my lack of knowledge
During an execution of a procedure that reads from a file in the server it shows the error in ULOG:
"121620.prod240!WSH.22478.1.0: WSNAT_CAT:1287: WARN: Forced shutdown of client; user name ''; client name ''; workstation address '//192.168.1.8:6386677'"
after reading/inserting the first record.
I alter the file, erase that first record and execute the proc. In some cases it reads all the file or just another record, so i have to alter the file again
After some attempts, it runs fine and reads all the records remaining.
The version of Tuxedo 8.1
The file may have as much as 50 records.
Any suggestion will be appreciated

Hi,
Does the WSNAT_CAT:1287 error message occur every time? I don't see how that error message relates to what you are doing as it basically says that a workstation client timed out which is likely due to client inactivity and isn't related to your service. If timing out your client is an issue, try setting or changing the -T option on the WSL.

CX_SY_CONVERSION_CODEPAGE - Error when reading from file in unix directory

Hi
We have a custom report which reads data from a file put in the unix directory. This report has been running for good 3 years now without any code changes.
For a few days the report is dumping with the following error
CX_SY_CONVERSION_CODEPAGE
Short text
    Character set conversion is not possible.
What happened?
    When converting a text from code page '4110' to code page '4102',
    the system either
    - encountered a character which cannot be represented in one of
      the two code pages; or
    - found that this type of conversion is not supported.
The code where the dump occurs is:
load the file from the given path
OPEN DATASET p_p_lfdata FOR INPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT WITH SMART LINEFEED.
IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
    DO.
>>>>>>>>      READ DATASET p_p_lfdata INTO l_rec. " Dump occurs here
      IF sy-subrc = 0.
I understand this error is thrown in the OPEN DATASET statements in case of non-unicode compliance, but this statement does not throw an error while the READ DATASET statement does..... Any particular reason why the READ statement is failing even though OPEN is successful???

Hi,
you open the according file in DEFAULT mode. I assume you do this on a Unicode system.
Then the program assumes that the file is encoded in UTF-8 (SAP number 4110).
Now it seems that the file contains some characters, which are not encoded in UTF-8.
I would propose to investigate the code page, on which the file is created.
Ideally this should be UTF-8. If this is not the case, try to change it.
If this is not possible, then adapt the ABAP program (e.g. use Non-Unicode mode).
Best regards,

How to change value of ${eol} from \n to \r\n, writing by File Adapter

Hi All,
How to change value of ${eol} from \n to \r\n, while writing file through File Adapter.
As my file is being created in Linux environment, so for new line separater, \n is used. I mounted this file directory to windows System.
As Windows requires \r\n for new line seperator. So I need to change value of ${eol} in the Schema created for file writing.
Can any one provide help regarding this.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
When an XML payload is written to a file \n would be used as the default line separator regardless of if its windows or linux, as per the XML specification http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml/#sec-line-ends.
As such, one need not worry about the line separators because, the XML file would eventually be processed by a parser which usually would be able to understand both line endings (as they are whitespace characters as far as the parser is concerned).
If you want to convert the line terminators (for readability etc), 10.1.3.4 has a new feature - in the XML schema definition for the file adapter payload, add these two top level directives to the schema element:
xmlns:nxsd="http://xmlns.oracle.com/pcbpel/nxsd"
nxsd:normalizeLineTerminators="false"

How do i set drive to update changes only when same name files are added

I Want to set up an external drive to update changes only when same name files are dragged from desktop can any one help?

That's still a little ambiguous. What recording software are you using?
Usually the individual sound files in a music project file are included in a separate folder. For example, GarageBand normally hides these files inside a single Project file in the Finder, but you can right-click and Show Package Contents to see the individual audio files.
Any of those backup utilities I mentioned will be smart enough to copy the new and changed files within the project file. In the Terminal these .band files are actually directories, just like .app Applications in the Finder are actually directories. I think Finder may actually handle it properly also, but I'm not really sure what the Finder will do when you re-copy a GarageBand project folder to an existing backup copy and only some of the audio files have changed.

BDC read from file!

Dear friends,
       I have one problem. When we are creating abap program by clicking on program button on recording screen it asks for the program name and there are 2 oprions..
1) read from file and
2)transfer from recording....second one is fine...but i am not able to use first option...how to use that and why it is used...
Thanks And Regards,
Bhavin Shah.

Hi Bhavin,
      The basic difference between read from file & transfer from recording is that...
    In transfer from recording you have to give a session name or you have to choose call transaction. Here you have to give the data manually.
    The Read from file will generate a dataset where who have to give that path of your flat file. When you execute it the data from the flat file will go into the necessary fields you have choosen before. You can process the job in the back ground which will be executed and a log file will be generated so that you can check whether it is updated correctly or not.
      In general we use read from file option when we know that the data are correctly arranged for recording.
      For eg. if you want to update the database with the file you have to know the datatype and length of each database-field so that you can specify the data in a file.
      i.e Assume that you are having 2 fields in db-table of type char and length 10 & 20. Assume that you are going to give values for these fields as mala & kala.
In the file... you should specify like this...
mala      kala                xxx
123456789012345678901234567890
<---Ten--><-----Twenty------->
In a Real Time scenario you have a very large table with 50 to 100 fields to update with a very large data like 1000 - 10,000 records and if you are not sure with the flat file data. Then you should not go for the file option.
Hope this helps you.

"Lightroom encountered and error when reading from its preview cache and needs to quit"

I keep receiving this error every time I open LR, "Lightroom encountered and error when reading from its preview cache and needs to quit" and the app won't open. It said LR would try and fix this error next time I opened it but the error remains. I tried uninstalled and installing the app and the error remains.
Any Ideas here? Is there another app that may be telling it where to look for the cache and it no longer there? I was using a ramdisk for a bit but ditched it. Not sure if that has something to do with it but it seems suspect.
Your thoughts?

I've tried renaming my catalog.lrcat file. I've copied over my most recent backup of the catalog.lrcat and that didn't work either.

On Mac:
PS - to open the previews "folder" (a "package" is just a "special" folder) on Mac, ctrl-click and choose "Show package contents.." - same way you open any other special folder, like .app or .lrplugin..

Re: preview cache?

Lightroom encountered an error when reading from its preview cache and needs to quit. Says Lightromm will attempt to fix the problem the next time it launches, but on every re-launch I get the same message. Any clue as to how to fix this problem?

I recently updated my HP laptop's OS from WIndows8 to WIndows8.1. When I went attempted to open Lightroom5 I got the following message:
"Lightroom encountered an error when reading from its preview cache and needs to quit. "
"Lightroom will attempt to fix the problem the next time it launches"
Every time I relaunch I get the same message. I'd like to understand what might be causing the problem so I can remedy and get back to my photo editing. Any clue as to how to fix this problem would be greatly appreciated.

When backing up lightroom 4 catalog, get message "lightroom encountered an error when reading from its preview cache and needs to quit" this occurs during optimization stage of backup

i upgraded from lightroom 4 to lightroom 5 and installed it on a separate hard drive. Initially had no problems util my computer crashed due to the failure of the drive on which Lightroom 5 was installed. Since having my computer rectified, i am unable to use lightroom 5 getting the message "lightroom encountered an error when reading from its preview cache and needs to quit"
I can still use lightroom 4, however, i get the same message when i try to backup the catalog. This occurs during the optimisation phase of backup.
I suspect it is related to Lightroom 5 creating a catalog from the Lightroom 4 files and cannot now locate those files or that they have been corrupted.
Would appreciate any solutions / suggestions.

You need to delete your preview cache and have Lightroom rebuild it. Cache location can be found here.

You don't delete a file, you have to delete a folder. Is that what you did?
If you deleted the folder specified above, and you still get the message, then it's the wrong folder. Use your operating system's search function and find ALL folders on ALL disks whose name ends with Previews.LRDATA, delete each one found, and then try opening Lightroom.

It isn't a file, it's a folder. It will have the same name as your catalog, but will have the extension data. It will be in the same folder along with your catalog. If you need to use the search feature to search for *.lrdata.

Lightroom crashes at start up with the error message "Lightroom encountered an error when reading from its preview cache and needs to quit". Please advise on how to fix this error. Thanks
