Migrating applications to Chinese version of windows?

Hello,
So I have written a couple applications that are used at our US locations to control hardware via GPIB. We now have locations in Asia and I need these applications to work over that side of the pond. Just looking for feedback or people with experiance to alert me of any common problems. My big concern is date / time stamps of my test files. The software is written in LV2010. I will have so co-workers attempting the install later in the week but I don't have access to a Chinese version of windows to see if there are any differences.
PS - GO ALONSO!!!
Kind Regards,
-Chris
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Just curious: Why the concern over timestamps? Is it because you are formating as strings in "system format", which will obviosuly be different in China? If so, you might want to change the code to stick with one specific hard-coded format?
Otherwise, I don't see a problem installing and running it on a Chinese windows PC.

Why my LV 8.6 (Englsih version in WIN 7 English OS) can not open programs I developed under LV (Chinese version)

Hi,
I just installed LV 8.6 (English version) in my new laptop (WIN 7 English OS). I found under LV 8.6 environment I can not open some programs I developed using LV 8.5 (Chinese version). These programs are saved in folders with Chinese names (subvis for some programs have Chinese names). If I take these programs on the desktop and chang the Chinese name into number or English name I can open them usingL LV 8.6. However, all Chinese words in opened programs can not be identified.
What should I do?
Thanks.

I was replying into a recent message thread where the user posted a VI that had some oriental characters in the VI name and I was not able to open it as a result until I saved the file and renamed it using normal alphabetical characters. It is not a problem with LabVIEW but with windows not knowing what to do with a strange character set.
The only solution I know is to go change your file and folder names so they don't use chinese characters. You could also try opening them on a chinese version of Windows. Maybe Microsoft has some download you can install that will allow english Windows to work in a chinese environment.

Hi,
you have a database version 10.2.0.1.0, but SOA needs 10.2.0.2 or higher. Update your database using the latest patchset.

Windows desktop application -- version of this file is not compatible with the version of Windows you're running

I am developing on 64-bit Windows7 Enterprise using VisualStudio 2013. I created a new Windows desktop VB.net application and just created a release build of the default solution/project targeting "Any CPU". I provided the EXE to a
colleague who is also running 64-bit Windows7 Enterprise but receives the following error...
"The version of this file is not compatible with the version of Windows you're running. Check your computer's system information to see
whether you need an x86 (32-bit) or x64 (64-bit) version of the program, and then contact the software publisher."
I changed the build configuration to create a "x86" build but my colleague received the same error. Any ideas why this would be happening (I checked and my colleague has .Net4 Framework installed as well)? Thank you for your time and
response!

Hi sunisha,
According to your description, you'd like to run the application in your colleague's computer.
I provided the EXE to a colleague who is also running 64-bit Windows7 Enterprise but receives the following error...
If you want to test the application, you could provide the whole Debug folder to colleague instead of the single exe.
"The version of this file is not compatible with the version of Windows you're running. Check your computer's system information to see whether you need an x86 (32-bit) or x64 (64-bit) version of the program, and then contact the software publisher."
Check if the collegue's computer is running 64-bit windows:
Enter Control Panel, click on System and Security.
Under this, you can view the system type. This will describe whether you have 32-bit or 64-bit.
You can also try compatiblity mode.
If the program is not compatible, then you may try to install and run the program in compatibility mode.
Use the following steps:
1)   Right click on the Program
2)   Click on Properties
3)   Click on Compatibility tab
4)   Select Run this program in compatibility mode and select Windows Vista or whatever operating system the program was running successfully.
And if you still have questions, I suggest you deploy the application to the Local Network with clickOnce, then your collegue can install the application from the network.
#ClickOnce deployment
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/t71a733d(VS.80).aspx
And also, you could recreate a new small application in your computer in Any CPU, then check if this small new application can work well in your colleague's computer. This can judge if the problem is caused by your application.
If you have any other concern regarding this issue, please feel free to let me know.
Best regards,
Youjun Tang

How do I determine which version of windows os is installed on the computer that my application is running on.

I need to determine which version of windows os in on the computer running my application to make some minor adjustments to a subvi. Is there a programmatic way to determine this using Labview.

Or, use the Application property node Application>OS>Detailed Name. Although I can't say anything about its output on other-than-Windows OSes.
By the way, I think you win the "reviving old thread" award today

Best way to migrate Applications across environments of different versions

Hello Gurus,
Source EPM Environment - EPM 11.1.1.3
Target EPM Environment - EPM 11.1.2.2
What is the best way to migrate applications for Planning , Essbase , HFM and also the related reports from 11.1.1.3 to 11.1.2.2 .
Any help will be highly appreciated..
Thanks
HyperEPM.

I tried with upgrading the application and it was done pretty smoothly as compared to the LCM import export method.
Now what would be the feasible way to move all the applications when following is the scenario and we need a minimum downtime.
1. Move from EPM 11.1.1.3 to EPM 11.1.2.2
2. DB used to configure EPM 11.1.2.2 should be fresh and not the existing one.
3. We want to move all the applications across to EPM 11.1.2.2 on the freshly configured EPM 11.1.2.2.
4. Move all the applications intact across the version.
Thanks

Portal MSS failed to display photo in Chinese version Windows

Hi, Experts,
Now I am facing an interesting problem for MSS photo display. Our client is having both English and Chinese version Windows installed in their PC. After we setup the Portal and Content Server in the AIX5 server, everything is working fine in the English PCs. However, the MSS photo cannot be displayed in the Chinese version windows.
Has anyone of you encountered this problem before? Have I missed out any configuration?
Please help!! Thanks in advance!

problem solved. It is not about windows version. The problem came from network connection setting.

Horizon 2e Chinese version. Recovery Partition deleted. Windows can't install!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi all
I bought a new Lenovo Horizon 2e, 2 days ago here in China. The OS was Windows 8.1 Chinese version. I researched a bit before and it said that Windows 8.1 Language can be changed so I thought I would be able to change it to English.
I went into the Language settings and there I was supposed to be able to download an English language pack. The option wasn't there and I found out that this version of windows is a single language version. I then thought I will install my own English copy of Windows 8.1. I started the installation and I deleted all the partitions on the harddrive because even the OKR was in Chinese, so no use to keep those. After the point where Windows created all the partitions for the installation and you click next where Windows quick formats the harddrive and goes to the next screen to start copying files, it pops up with error code 0x80070057 and says it cant be formatted. I then tried the same with Windows 7, same thing, then I tried with Windows 10 Technical preview and the same thing happened. I also tried to clean install Windows on a another pc and Backed up the Hardrive and Restore it to the Horizon with Acronis True Image. To no avail. It's as if the bios is not allowing another OS to be installed. There is an option in bios that allows for other operating systems to be installed. This is all enabled. I have no way of recovering the Horizon now. It doesn't come with recovery disks because it has no optical drive. How can I get an operating sytem on it? Please help

Then after this if I use onsctl also I won't be able to start the service. Please let me know how will I rectify this error.
I am performing single node to RAC migration using rconfig. Will ONS not running in second node affect rconfig?

To create a PDF document, go to the source application then print the document to .pdf" I am going to the source application and printing the document to .pdf yet it's saving the file as a .log file. After reinstalling the software, I initially didn't encounter this problem but on my second and third attempts to convert files to .pdf format, this error message reappeared. How do I resolve this problem?

I have found several posts, many discussing how disk space can be an issue, I have increased disk space so it shouldn't be an issue. I have also made sure the only only partition on disk 0 is C: and system reserved.
I have disabled all unessential services and went through and removed all unessential applications, and extras. Still getting the error.

Any ideas on how I can resolve this, or further troubleshoot?

I also had this error: "Setup cannot continue. Your computer will now restart, and your previous version of Windows will be restored."
trying to do a in-place upgrade of a Domain Controller Windows 2008 R2 to Windows 2012 R2.
The problem was the separated System Reserved Partition. After I removed using this instructions:

The upgrade ran ok, and now have my DC as Windows 2012 R2.
Hope that helps!.

Cant install or uninstall Adobe Air. Keep getting error message "This application requires a version of Adobe AIR which cannot be found"

I am running Windows 7 and use Adobe AIR for Flixster. When I tried to open Flixster I recieved an error message saying i needed to install Adobe AIR. I looked and saw that according to control panel, Adobe AIR is installed. I attempted to uninstall but get this EXACT message:
"This application requires a version of Adobe AIR which cannot be found. Please download the latest version of the runtime from http://www.adobe.com/go/getair, or contact the application author for an updated version."
I have tried going to the mentioned website but i get an error message saying installation failed and may need administrative privilages but I AM the administrator!
I then tried multiple solutions on the forums including the command prompt uninstall and still no luck. contacted customer support who told me i can only receive assistance through these forums.
Very frustrating. Please Help.

I have the same issue with a customer of ours:
Try to uninstall AIR – same message. (When I reinstall, the install says it’s successful.) I try to run our app, same message. I downloaded another AIR app, same message – so it’s not our app it’s AIR. We logged in as Administrator, same message. It’s a Windows7 machine. I did a system restore to 2 days ago and started over and still the same issues. I tried running the Windows Fixit to uninstall https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/mats/program_install_and_uninstall – didn’t work.

Latest version of Window 7 FireFox came with malware including Unico browser and tons of other malware. Mac version seems to be fine. Has anyone else seen this?

I have been using FireFox for awhile now on both a Mac and Windows 7 computer and have loved it. It has been updated to the latest version by your request many times in both formats with no problems; until now. The Windows computer just asked me to undate to version. I went directly to Mozilla.org and it had 'Firefox Setup Stub 37.0.1.exe. When I opened this, I immediately got a blast of more nasty malware and viruses than I had ever previously experienced. I deleted all those unwanted programs that had downloaded; removed all the malware and viruses. Firefox worked for a minute before all this different malware and pop-ups and viruses started again. I then repeated everything and also removed firefox and the PC worked fine with a different browser.
I then tried a second time to a different Mozilla site that included US firefox in the website name and started over. Same thing happened again. These unwanted programs included Unico Browser and dozens of other that are very nasty. If you click on anything, they download a dozen other programs. If you go to control panel and remove them, they download 6 or eight new unwanted programs. I finally got all the malware, viruses and pop ups removed when I also removed Mozilla Firefox. I can only conclude that the latest version for Windows is corrupted. Any thought or recommendations? For now, I am back to using a different browser on the PC.

Let's try this last thing:
'''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
#Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from [https://www.mozilla.org mozilla.org] (or choose the download for your operating system and language from [https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/ this page]) and save the setup file to your computer.
#After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (or open the Firefox menu [[Image:New Fx Menu]] and click the close button [[Image:Close 29]]).
#Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
#*'''Windows:'''
#**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
#**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
#*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
#*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
#Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
More information about reinstalling Firefox can be found [[Troubleshoot and diagnose Firefox problems#w_5-reinstall-firefox|here]].
<b>WARNING:</b> Do not use a third party uninstaller as part of this process. Doing so could permanently delete your [[Profiles|Firefox profile]] data, including but not limited to, extensions, cache, cookies, bookmarks, personal settings and saved passwords. <u>These cannot be easily recovered unless they have been backed up to an external device!</u> See [[Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles]]. 
Please report back to say if this helped you!
Thank you.
