First of all, to troubleshoot the problem it would help to put some filepath indicators at each point so that you can see what is going on. Also, in your exe having an error dialog "Simple Error Handler.vi" to let you know what LabVIEW didn't like in the exe.
Now, when you run a top level ("Main.vi") and use the "Current VI's Path " in the development mode it returns <Filepath>\"Current path"\Main.vi. So stripping once will get you to  <Filepath>\"Current path" .    Now if you make it into an exe the "Current VI's Path" returns <Filepath>\"Current path"\"Name.exe"\Main.vi so you are "nested" one deeper.
I use the following construct to determine whether the vi is being used as in the development environment or as an exe, the parse the path accordingly, although in this instance it is used to supply different directory names to a little more complex file system.

  • Help File Path Problem

    Hi,
    I recently upgraded to a new computer and I have Develope toolbox and some other extensions from Web Assist and curiously when I click on HELP button in any of them I receive in error message like the one below.....virtually all of the error messages are the same. I known that it is a path problem, but when I follow the path indicated in the error message I find the file exactly where it should be on the computer.....hmmmm...any ideas out there?
    Firefox can't find the file at /MacHD/Users/jimelander/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Dreamweaver 9/Configuration/Shared/DeveloperToolbox/classes/temp.htm

    I think un install ADDT then reinstall it..
    Hope this helps

  • File path problem in jsp

    Hi techies,
    I am having a jsp ,which is having the following fields,

                   <br>
                   <input type="button" value="submit" onClick ="doSubmit()" >
                     For the first time I am sending request to the servlet and after checking the conditions we will get one confirmation box.
    If we click ok (i.e true) ,we have to again send the same data to the servlet.
    I am keeping all the variables in a session in servlet and retrieving in to jsp, but the problem is ,when again sending request to servlet , I am missing file name,but I am getting file path(i.e c:/sun/appserver/bin/) only.
    I need to get c://sun/appserver/bin How can i get entire path??
    Here is my servlet code
    File f = new File(xmlFileName);
      String     xmlFilePath = f.getAbsolutePath();     
    System.out.println("xmlFilePath"+xmlFilePath);
    session.setAttribute("xmlFile",xmlFilePath);Here is my java script code
    function init() {
         <%
              if(message !=null && messageType != null && messageType.equals("ALERT")){ %>
              var mss = confirm("<%=message%>");
            //  alert(mss);
               if(mss == true)
          var user = '<%=session.getAttribute("user")!=null?session.getAttribute("user"):"0"%>';
            var pass = '<%=session.getAttribute("pass")!=null?session.getAttribute("pass"):"0"%>';
         var xmlF = '<%=session.getAttribute("xmlFile")!=null?session.getAttribute("xmlFile"):"0"%>';
                    alert("inside if"+xmlF);               
                    document.forms[0].resubmit.value = "true"
                    document.forms[0].userName.value =user;
                    alert(document.forms[0].userName.value);
                    document.forms[0].passWord.value=pass;
                    alert(document.forms[0].passWord.value);
                    document.forms[0].xmlFile.value=xmlF;
                    alert(document.forms[0].xmlFile.value);
                    doSubmit();
              else
                   alert("else");
         <% } %>
    function doSubmit() {
                       alert(document.forms[0].userName.value);
                       alert(document.forms[0].passWord.value);
                        alert(document.forms[0].xmlFileName.value);
                document.forms[0].submit();
                         }

    Thanks for u r reply Mr.Prasad.
    Sorry for the delay for reply.
    My scenario is in 2 phases
    Phase 1. I am taking input from the front end using jsp and writing the contents in to a file and then downloading that file on to my desktop.(Now let us say this one as file downloading)
    Phase 2. Now I had designed a page,which locates the downloaded file by using the following tag.
                        <td><input type ="file" name ="xmlFileName"></td>
        In the downloaded xml file I am having applicationid. I am checking whether the application id already xists in the database (or)not.
    If already exists in the database , the end user will get one confirmation msg,saying application already exists in the database.
    If the user clicks ok again the request has to go to the servlet.
    Now the actual problems are
    1. When I locate the file on the desktop let us say c:\desktop\krish and click on submit button, it is locating to the file that is present in the server(this is the case for the first time means before checking the application id in the database).
    2. when the end user clicks "ok" on the confirmation box , I am not getting the file name,that has to be submitted to the servlet.
    Can u plz help me how to resolve this issue.
    regards,
    Krish

    I'd check to ensure that you have the latest versions of the
    WebAssist extensions as this may have been fixed. I seem to recall
    seeing this issue when the primary browser (from Dreamweaver's
    perspective, the one that F12 or preview in browser opens up) is
    not open when the help is accessed. Try having your browser open
    and then access the help.

  • Logical file path problem in lsmw

    Hi folks,
    I created logical file  path in FILE tcode. its created and assigned physical file path to logical file path.
    then i am assigning that logical file path into lsmw step (specify file step).
    under specify file i am assigning into import data and convert data.
    once read data step completed read data must be save under this physical file but data is not saving under this path.
    can any one help me out this..
    1.can any one help how to create physical file in file tcode
    2.how to assigne that physical file to lsmw step specify file

    Hi Srikanth,
    There is no need to create the logical file path using the FILE transaction.
    Under Specify file step, you need to give your local file path in LEGACY DATA Section.
    Please check the below link in using the LSMW step by step.

  • Dynamic file path problem....

    Hello & thanks for your attention
    I am trying to modify the action script(2) of a XML photo slideshow
    I want to make it pull the photo array from a dynamic XML file
    Yet nothing I try seems to be working - I was hoping someone could look at these snippets and tell me if I'm doing something incorrectly
    Objective:
    To make the swf file - pull its photo array - from a dynamic XML file path
    Scenario:
    http://www.reallivingtours.com/tours/viewTour.php?id=2092
    When that URL is called by a browser
    An XML file called 2092.xml is created in a /tmp/ directory
    viewTour.php passes the ‘dynamic’ file path to the swf via the params
    <param name="movie" value="slideshow.swf?file=tmp/<?php echo $tourID; ?>.xml">
    <param name="flashvars" value="&file=tmp/<?php echo $tourID; ?>.xml">
    The original AS2:
    var xml:XML = new XML();
    xml.ignoreWhite = true;
    _root.xmlPath == undefined ? xml.load("settings.xml") : xml.load(_root.xmlPath);
    The modified AS2 - I've done:
    var filePath:String = new String();
    filePath =_root.file;
    var xml:XML = new XML();
    xml.ignoreWhite = true;
    _root.xmlPath == undefined ? xml.load(new URLRequest(filePath)) : xml.load(_root.xmlPath);
    Can you see anything I'm doing incorrectly?
    Thank you very much for your time and attention
    Benn

    Thanks to webqa - I've gotten a little closer to resolving this
    my debugging tells me that i have an undefined error
    I'm thinking - xml.load(filePath)
    is not recognizing the string as a file path to the XML
    Does anyone have any suggestions? thank you
    var filePath:String = new String();
    filePath =_root.file;
    var xml:XML = new XML();
    xml.ignoreWhite = true;
    _root.xmlPath == undefined ? xml.load(filePath) : xml.load(_root.xmlPath);

  • File path problem in background job spool

    Hello ,
    i have probelm in file path of the background job in spool.
    i have selection screen
    Radiobutton : p_local
    parameter: path1.
    Radibutton: p_applicatioserver
    parameter: path2.
    if i keep program in background job, it will alwas take second option.
    Now user selected first option and executed job in abckground. File stored in the spplication server with corect file  path name. (path2)
    But when i go to sm37 entered job name and checked the spool, it gives me the file path name path1. but i need the file path1 in the background spool. my question whether i need to change the file path name in program or whether i have to change the setting
    Regards,
    zub

    First of all, local is not an option in background job; you can only save to the apps server, and your program should take that into consideration by checking for sy-batch = 'X', for example.  You should be checking in your at selection-screen to be sure the user has not chosen local path and file and background job.

  • File path problems between mac and PC

    hi
    I'm having some issues with file paths, done a lot of searching online, here and on creative cow and no answers to be found (same question asked a few times though).
    I'm working on projects on a MAC and then collecting files (project only) to a watch folder on a PC for rendering.
    Most of the really big files (.R3D) are located locally on the PC but a few files are on a server.
    I can work on them fine on my Mac but when the project comes across to the PC it can find the files located on one of its drives (the same drive as the project source folder) but loses the filepath to the server and to the other internal drive as well.
    I have to open the project on the PC and repoint to the missing footage and then save which is a real pain in the #@$% and kind of defeats the purpose of the distributed rendering.
    how can I set absolute paths for the PCs from my MAC ????
    cheers../daniel

    Hey, sorry Mylenium, but this statement is not true. I was almost convinced to give up after reading this, but I managed to make a working conversion tool shortly after.
    This is the method in After Effects, I am pretty sure that it can work in the rest of the adobe suite as well.
    All you need to do to get the paths to update to windows format is to:
    1. Select "Save as xml" and save an .aepx.
    2. Open the .aepx in text edit.
    3. Perform a find for "/Volumes" and replace with "//<MountPointOnThePC>" (for example I have the drive as a network drive on the pc so I swap the <MountPointOnThePC> to the name of my mac as that is the path on the pc machine)
    4. Perform another find for "MacPOSIX" and replace with "Win"
    5. Save your file and you will be able to open in on a pc with all the files online.
    Disclaimer, I built this to work on my set up using a mac server and a pc render farm for after effects. Please back up your projects before opening them and editing them.
    Hope this helps anyone else trying to do the same.

  • File path problem and getCodeBase Usage

    I have a java application and read data from file.
    I create file by File file=new File("F:\MyProgram\.txt');
    if I want to give my file to relative path name, HOw can i give. I can move my program to jar file or exe and move to anywhere.
    How can i give file to move anywhere by only give folder name and don't need to give full path name?
    How can I use getCodeBase to give file path name?

    You need to use resources and the URL class, here's an example:URL resourceLocation = getClass().getResource("/configuration.txt");That will give the location of the configuration file regardless of how you've packaged the software. If you need to read the file from a static context use "ClassName.class" in place of "getClass()".

  • Xml based file path problem on Windows

    Hi
    I'm having a problem with a Flash based slideshow based on
    the tutorial one from here
    http://www.adobe.com/support/flash/applications/jpeg_slideshow_xml/index.html
    I've added a timed nextSlide function but basically left the
    actionscript the same apart from that.
    The problem is that the file works fine in a html file on any
    Mac browser I care to test in, Firfox,Netscape,Safari and even
    IE5.2 but when I try it in Windows IE6 or firefox, no picture s or
    titles show. I've tried this under parallels from a "shared"
    folder, and also on a real pc from the website.
    I also tried the original tutorial file and it doesn't seem
    to work either.
    Can anyone cast any light on this problem?
    I thought it was the different way paths are defined on Mac
    & Windows ie / vs \ so I put everything at the same level and
    redefined the paths in the xml to be at the same level , but still
    no go on Windows.
    Help! please!

    Hello!
    Does anyone have any idea what the problem is with this?
    The example is from the support section of this site and it
    doesn't work. Surely an Adobe support person has a comment.

  • Need help fixing a file path problem

    Hi everyone,
    I'm using Dreamweaver 8 and for some reason my url/path name
    visually changed in my new web pages. Anything that has a path
    (i.e. image, a link etc) now has a prefix in this particular page.
    Ex. older files,
    images/flower.gif
    changed to
    ../../images/flower.gif.
    This is really annoying because when I try to copy fields
    from new web page to put in the older files, it includes the ../../
    which doesn’t exist in the older files. Even when I create a
    new page the prefix is present.
    How do I get it back to the old path?
    Thanks!
    AFIB

    You local site is improperly defined. Where does your site
    definition place

  • Applescript CS5 file path problem

    I have a script that opens one file from a mounted server volume, and one file from my local drive. It then combines the two files and saves a PSD back to the server volume. This script runs perfectly in CS3 & CS4.  When I updated the script to run in CS5, everything works except opening the file from the server volume. Instead of opening the file, Photoshop opens the "Browse" window and waits for me to select the file and click open. Here is a sample:
    set fileA to "LocalDrive:Folder:thisFileA.jpg" -- JPG stored on local drive
    set fileA to "PostVolume:JOBS:ThisJob:ThisFileB.tif" -- TIFF stored on server volume
    tell application "Adobe Photoshop CS5"
        activate
        open alias fileA  -- JPG stored on local drive
        open alias fileB  -- TIFF stored on server volume
    end tell
    My workaround is to tell the Finder to open the file stored on the server volume. This works because the default app on my machine for TIFF's is Photoshop. I intentionally have Preview set as the default open app for JPG's. If I have to open a JPG from the server volume, telling Finder to open it will result in the file opening in Preview. Not good! Has anyone expierenced the same "open" issue with files stored locally vs remotely? Thanks in advance!

    Nice catch! Unfortunately, the code I posted was only an example, and the typo was just that, a typo. Here it is with the correction in all its glory (and a couple more notes)...
    set fileA to "LocalDrive:Folder:thisFileA.jpg" -- JPG stored on local  drive
    set fileB to "PostVolume:JOBS:ThisJob:ThisFileB.tif" -- TIFF  stored on server volume
    tell application "Adobe Photoshop  CS5"
        activate
          -- JPG stored on local  drive
         -- this file opens correctly, with no "browse" dialog
        open alias fileA
         -- TIFF stored on server volume
         -- when PS CS5 trys to open this file, I get a "browse" dialog. If I compile for CS3 or CS4, the file opens as it should.
        open alias fileB
    end  tell
    The server volume is mounted via AFP. (It's a xserve running server 10.4.x) Thanks again for looking into it!
