Error opening TestStand 4.1.1: ParameterName SplitterDistance

Hi,
my TestStand Sequence Editor cannot be opened any more.
The error
"Sequence Editor
 Der Wert -2147483648 ist für die SplitterDistance ungültig. SplitterDistance muss größer als 0 sein.
Parametername: SplitterDistance"
occurs and everything in the menu is grayed out. (e.g. I cannot login)
The following actions were ineffective:
-Reboot of computer
-New installation of teststand
-Function "Reparieren"(Repair Software) in the Measurement & Automation Explorer
-Deinstallation of TestStand and new installation
Thanks for help

Thank you very much, this solved the problem.
The layout file is attached. (I is renamed into .txt because attaching a .bin file was not allowed)
Thanks

  • Why do I a -18360 error in teststand 3.0

    I get the following message when I double click on a sequence file in explorer.
    Could not open the sequence file(s) sepcifice by the command line.
    Error Code: -18360, User does not have required Privilege.
    If I start Teststand all menu items except login and exit are grayed out. If I select login I don't get a login dialog box.
    It used to work fine and I don't know what I did.

    Hi Ray,
    Thank you for the prompt answer. It did not help either but maybe it depends on I'm using TestStand 3.5. Anyway I will try to describe what happened.
    I checked the box "Check User Privileges" under Station Options->User Manager and  after that when I open Teststand Sequence editor it opens but all functionalities are grayed out. If I open some sequence it shows error code "-18360. User does not have required privilege".
    I have TestStand installed on other computer and there I can check and uncheck "Check User Privileges " without any problems. The difference is when I start TestStand on the other computer TestStand shows up a login dialog and the first one does not.
    Since I have done this on the other computer without problems I thought this will not be a problem either but now it cause me problem out of proportion.
    Hope you or anyone can help me.
    Thanks in advance

    Help, I had aperture open and working on a image and did not have a battery in and bumped the power off. As a result it will not open my master, it is locked. when I try to open that Library  it says There was an error opening the database for the library. I have tried every thing. I updated the other libr but now it will not open the main to update. What do I do?

    Try starting Aperture with the command and option keys held down.  You'll get 3 options.
    Try each, starting at the top, in order, checking after each to see if it fixes the issue.

  • When I attempt to open a PDF file I saved from a website, I get the message "There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired." Is there any way to correct this problem?

    When I attempt to open a PDF file I saved from a website using Safari, I get the message "There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired." When I save the same PDF file using FireFox it opens up immediately. Is there any way to correct this problem with Safari?

    Back up all data.
    Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
    From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present.
    If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:

  • Can not open pdf file in Outlook 2010 - error opening document

    when I click on the PDF file in the email (Outlook 2010), Adobe opens but it pops a window "There was an error opening this document. Access denied". If I save the document as a file, aka to the desktop, I can open it then.
    Also also I click on the ok button in adobe, it posted a Runtime error! application has requested the RunTime to terminate it in an unusal way.
    has anyone seen this issue. Desktop is using Windows XP, 4 gig ram, Adobe X verision 10.0.1

    Did you try this?  It worked for me.

    Open up Adobe Reader X
    On the Toolbar Menu go to Edit > Preferences
    Go to the general tab under Categories.
    Untick “Enable Protected Mode at Startup”
    If asked if sure, click Yes and then Ok.
    Now close Adobe Reader X and try opening the PDF again.

  • With OSX10.7.5 and Adobe Reader 11.0.02 when I try to open a PDF downloaded from the web I get 'There was an error opening this document. This file is damaged and could not be repaired. Preview will not open either. Older PDFs OK.

    I am running OS X 10.7.5 and Adobe Reader 11.0.02. In the last few days I have been unable to open PDF's downloaded from the web. Reader gives the error message 'There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired'. Removing Reader and trying to use Preview to open these files give the error 'Preview cannot open this file. It may be damaged or use a file format that Preview doesn't recognise' (or something like that). Downloading the same files with Reader removed from my Mac Preview opens the files OK.
    I was recently prompted to update Adobe software but did not note exactly what the update was nor when it was done.
    Reader and Preview will both open PDFs I downloaded a week ago. Reader will also open files downloaded on another Mac running OS X 10.0.0 and copied to my Mac. Any ideas?

  • There was an error opening this document. Access denied.

    Greetings,
    When I did my taxes last year (March 2012), I downloaded some pdf files from the IRS.  Form 1040 was a writable file and I filled it out as needed.  This file was saved on a Vista machine running XP.  A few months ago, I upgraded that pc to be Windows 7 SP1.
    Today I'm getting ready to do my taxes for this year.  When I double click on last year's Form1040.pdf, I get the following error message:
    There was an error opening this document.  Access denied.
    Interestingly, I can open other pdf files, like the Form 1040 Instructions.  I do not think that I password protected my Form1040.pdf.  The reason that I think it isn't password protected is because I'm not being prompted to enter a password.
    I copied the file to an old spare XP machine (XP Home, version 2002, SP3) that I have and it opened fine.  It did not prompt for a password.  I printed copies of last year's forms from that XP machine, so this isn't an emergency for me, but it is mildly annoying that I can't figure out what's wrong.
    I have Adobe Reader XI version 11.0.2 installed on both machines (the Windows 7 machine and the old XP machine).
    To summarize, it was created on Vista, I can't open it with Windows 7, but I can open it with XP.
    Normally I would consider uploading the file in question, but in this case, I hope you'll agree that might be a bad idea!
    Advice on how to get this to work on Windows 7 would be appreciated.

    Pat Willener:  Thanks!  That solved the problem.
    For anyone else having this problem, here's a detailed list of how I used Pat's advice to solve my problem:
    1.  Right click on the problematic file
    2.  Select Properties
    3.  Select the Security tab
    4.  Press continue
    5.  In the "Permissions for MyFile.pdf" dialog, press "Add".
    6.  In the "Select Users or Groups" dialog, press "Advanced".
    7.  The next dialog that pops up is also named "Select Users or Groups".  Press "Find Now".
    8.  Scroll down the list of search results until you find your username.
    9.  Double click on your username.
    10. Press ok in the "Select Users or Groups" dialog.
    11.  Press ok in the "Permissions for MyFile.pdf" dialog
    12. Press ok in the Properties dialog.
    done.

  • Adobe Reader 11.0.06 "There was an error opening this document.  Access Denied"

    Windows 7 64-bit
    If I go into My Windows 7 Documents Library folder (which is redirected by Group Policy to a network share), I get "There was an error opening this document.  Access Denied".  If I then map a drive to the share, I can open the PDF without the error message.
    I've read a workaround for some time now for older versions has been to uncheck Enable Protected Mode at startup under Security (Enhanced) in Preferences.  I find this does work but this is probably not the best way to handle this situation.
    I've also read one person removed the desktop.ini on the desktop to resolve.
    Is there any official response from Adobe on this issue that I can be pointed too?  Are others still having this issue?
    We plan to update several thousand clients and I'd like resolve this issue before we do.

    We tried 11.0.05, 11.0.06 and 11.0.07 with the same result on different computers with different local Admin accounts.
    When we re-install 10.1.0 the issue is gone and Protected Mode is enabled.
    We then returned to 11.0.06 or 11.0.07
    I'm logged in with a local Admin account.
    I turned on Protected Mode Logging and captured what happens when I attempt to double click a pdf file in my Documents Library with 11.0.06 installed.  Access Denied.
    I then doubled clicked the file from a drive mapped to the same share and the file opened.

  • With Reader XI There was an error opening this document. Access denied

    Hi there, It looks like I have a simular problem. I also get the error "There was an error opening this document. Access denied." This when I tried to open the file by clicling on the file. When I try to open the file from out Adobe reader it gives me the error "You don't have permission to open the file" I use Adobe XI. My OS is W8.1 By clearing protected mode doesn't help. This is what I found sofar: Only the PDF files in the documents and subfolders are giving me this error. PDF files in other folders are fine. When I copy PDF files from the documents folder to Desktop they open without any problem. First I thought I might be a permission problem with the Documents folder, but I have full access. Other files in the Documents folder like Word and Excel files open fine with MS Office. My laptop has WinXP and is shared with my PC when I open PDF files on my laptop by using the network share they open without problems. So it looks like only the PDF files in my Documents folder. I'm not sure but before upgrading to W8.1 from W8.0 I can't remember if I had this problem, but I think I did not have it. To make it even more interested is that I have also Adobe Acrobat Writer on my PC what I use for my buisiness. When I open the PDF files with this program they open without any problem. Therefore I believe it is not a permission problem, I still believe it is a problem with Reader XI, but than only after upgrading to W8.1, but as I already mentioned I'm not sure for 100% only that sofar I know it never happened under W8. Has anyone out there simular problems? And hopefully with a fix.

    This is what I did sofar: Deleted reader XI and reinstalled same problem.
    Because I think the problem is with reader XI I deleted again XI and installed reader X.
    With this version I can open PDF files located in the documents folder without any problem.
    For now I keep using version X until they fixed version XI
    This proves that reader XI will not work under W8.1 when opening PDF files in de documents folder.

  • Error opening PDF downloaded from Interactive Report

    hi -- I'm getting an error opening a PDF file downloaded from an interactive report.
    I've seen on the forum that this could be related to the size of the file, but I've tried
    this out on 10-row results (1k files) and it's still an issue.
    I save the file to my file system. If I try to open it in Adobe Reader, I get:
    File does not begin with '%PDF-'
    and
    Adobe Reader could not open <filename>.pdf because it is either not a supported
    file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email
    attachment and wasn't correctly decoded).
    If I try to open in Internet Explorer, I get:
    File does not begin with '%PDF-'
    Other users are having the same problem. Download to csv and open in Excel works fine.
    Do I need to have special print attributes for this? I didn't think so... I'm just using the defaults
    (response header = report settings, content disposition = attachment).
    Ideas?
    Thanks,
    Carol

    Hi,
    I'm having the same problem that was described above, and my site does have BI Publisher installed, and it does successfully produce readable pdfs for many reports.
    But there are other reports, even reports produced using the Apex Wizard and all defaults, that just keep producing the same Adobe Reader error reported above, ie
    "Adobe Reader could not open <filename>.pdf because it is either not a supported
    file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email
    attachment and wasn't correctly decoded)."
    Any suggestions?
    Cheers,
    Peter

  • Another "there was an error opening this document. this file cannot be found"-question

    Hello people, as the title suggests, i have another question regarding the "there was an error opening this document. this file cannot be found" error. I have searched on Google and on these forums but i havent found an answer to my particular case (sorry if i overlooked it).
    I work at a supportdesk for a company that uses Windows XP with Adobe Reader version 8.1.3.
    Users are getting this error when they access a PDF file placed on a (mapped) networkdrive. Contrary to some other cases i have found on this forum, spaces are handled without a problem. But a comma in the name of one of the folders that contain the PDF file are what causes this error.
    i.e.:
    Opening the following path results in the error:
    L:\X, Y & Z\adobe.pdf
    Removing the comma so the path becomes:
    L:\X Y & Z\adobe.pdf
    works just fine.
    So far our workaround has always been to simply remove the comma and move on, but I've been wondering why this comma is such a problem for Adobe Reader. As far as i know Adobe Reader is the only program we use that has this issue, M$ Word works just fine with it to name an example.
    To sum my questions up:
    - Why is comma (,) a problem for Adobe Reader?
    - Have i missed any patches/new versions where this issue has been addressed?
    - What is Adobe's stance on this, and are there any plans to "fix" this?

    Ok, nevermind, we just found the problem
    It's not Adobe Reader that is causing this, but another program the company uses to manage/distribute/authorise programs that users are allowed to access (Scense). I had never even considered another problem could have caused this for Reader.

  • "There was an error opening the database for the library "~/Pictures/Apert"

    Hey everyone,
    There's already another discussion thread about this at the link below, but the problem was never actually resolved. http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2343014&tstart=0&messageID=116 67261#11667261
    So I stumbled across this problem where Aperture 3 will display the following error when opening the image library.
    There was an error opening the database for the library “~[path]/Aperture Library.aplibrary”.
    One user suggested navigating to the actual library, and ⌘⌥-clicking the library to open it with the Aperture Library First Aid dialog. This however, did not work for me. I still received the error messages upon ⌘⌥-clicking the library.
    Here's a little hack I discovered for those of you still struggling. It doesn't fix the problem (leaves quite a large dent remaining actually), but hopefully someone can cultivate what little I discovered.
    ⌥-click Aperture (not the library)
    You should get to the library selection dialog box. Create a new library (bottom right corner) and remember the location of the new library. Put a few random pictures in the new one.
    Close Aperture
    ⌃-click both the old and new libraries and "Show Package Contents."
    Open the folder "Database" in both libraries.
    Cross check the folders to see if the old library is missing files that are in the new library. If your old library is missing some files (mine was), drag the missing files from the new library to the old one.
    Close both folders.
    ⌘⌥-click the old library.
    NOW, I got the Aperture Library First Aid dialog.
    Rebuild the library (3rd option)
    Wait a while.
    Aperture should open up with a folder named "Recovered Folder." Within this folder will be a SINGLE project named "Recovered Project" with ALL the images from your old library. There may be a few albums there too, but mine were all empty so it didn't matter in my case. To my knowledge, I lost all the adjustments I performed too.
    This is as far as I got. I have much of my library backed up, so I only needed to copy the most recent photos into the backup. I am NOT reorganizing and re-editing pictures in this one!
    As Aperture is a photo-organizing and photo-editing software, I understand that this by no means fixes the problem, since you lose all organization and editing. But it enables one to at least view the images lost. Hopefully a more knowledgable hacker else can figure out how to fix this completely. Unfortunately, I simply don't have the time to continue messing with this.
    Good luck to anyone else having issues! I understand the frustration you must be facing, its freaky having years worth of images simply disappear! After this incident, I'm definitely going to configure Time Machine to perform more frequent backups, since my latest backup was already a couple weeks old.

    Hey All,
    To my horror I have a similar problem and your solution didn't seem to help. To be specific, I get the error:
    "There was an error opening the database for the library “~/Pictures/Aperture Library_2.aplibrary" Everytime I try to run Aperture. This happened because my Apple computer shut off completely (due to bad battery) while importing photos from a memory card.
    I've tried "option + command" while clicking the aperture application and that gave me the same error message without any other option except to quit the program. I tried "option + command" and clicked the library package but that didn't work either. I tried creating a new aperture library, opening it which I did successfully, and then switching to my main one but that didn't work.
    Does anyone know away to get it to work again and have the edits still there?
    I'm a professional photographer and have thousands of photos or so in the library so this is distressing. The master files for the photos are located on an external hard drive, but I'm not sure how to access them in aperture. Are all the edits on the photographs are in the external hard drive or the aperture library. Is there any other way to resolve this issue without losing the edits?
    Does apple have a support number I can call? Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

  • Error opening pdf file, but then it still opens

    I am having trouble when I open a pdf.I am using the code below to open a pdf.
    on mouseUp me
      acro = bafindapp("pdf")
      if acro = empty then
        acrofile = me.pPDF
        alert "This program was unable to find a suitable program on your system to open a PDF document. It will open www.adobe.com, where you can download a free viewer"
        goToNetPage "http://www.adobe.com"
    else
        open the moviePath & "Resource\" & me.pPDF with acro
      end if
    end
    When this is on a button, adobe reader will open, but gives an error saying "There was an error opening this document. This file cannot be found."
    When I hit the ok button on the error notice, the pdf opens.
    Any ideas why I am getting this message even though the pdf opens after dismissing the message would be appreciated.

    The reason I assumed, or asked, whether it was Windows-only is because of your use of the backslash character as the folder delimiter. To make the script cross-platform try the following:
    on mouseUp me
      acro = baFindApp("pdf")
      if ( acro = EMPTY ) then
        alert "This program was unable to find a suitable program on your system to open a PDF document. It will open www.adobe.com, where you can download a free viewer"
        goToNetPage "http://www.adobe.com"
      else
        mPath = _movie.path
        tFile = mPath & "Resource" & mPath.char[length(mPath)] & me.pPDF
        if baFileExists(tFile) then
          OK = baOpenFile(tFile, "normal")
          if ( OK < 32 ) then
            -- see docs for numbers and their meaning
            alert "Error opening file:" && OK
          end if
        else
          alert "File not found:" &RETURN& tFile
        end if
      end if
    end

  • Message'there was an error opening this document.The file cannot be found'

    Using xp home and when I click to download the pdf file, it will give 3 options been 'open'/'save'/?. When I choose the 'open' option, it will give me the above message "there was an error opening this document.The file cannot be found"
    owever if I choose to "save" and I will be able to open the file and read it. In this pc its using Adobe Reader 8.1.2 with a patch. It was working fine prior to this sudden occurance of the error.
    Strangely I have another pc with the same specification, I was able to choose "open" and be able to read the file. Can anyone help to resolve the issue by using the "open' option instead of "save, then open". Greateful for your prompt response.

    Fyi, in addition to my earlier post, the other pc is using Adobe 8.1.1 and no other patch. I was trying to find 8.1.1 version but could not find a trust worthy site to load from. Do you think the error caused by using the 8.1.2 version? Thanks
