NI Elvis throwing error 7, NI 488: Non existent board, NI Elvis traditional throwing error 2, NI 488: Write detects no Listeners when attempting to launch labview
I wrote a program on a laptop in our lab that used both the NI Elvis power supplies and DMM. On the laptops in the lab, which connected to NI Elvis through a board in the NI-PXIe device the program worked perfectly both as a vi and as an executable. The program needed to be put on some computers in another lab for student use with a different version of labview, and everything worked except for the variable power supplies. I activated debugging and it reported Error 7 at New File, NI 488: Non-Existent Board. After attempting to trouble shoot this and not finding any helpful results I attempted to rewrite the program on the computers directly, since I could only put the program on the computers as an executable since it was written in 8.6 and the computers only have 8.0 and 8.2. To begin I was going to launch labview from NI Elvis to use one of the example codes as a base for my program. When attempting to do this I got Error 2 with the possible causes being Labview memory full and NI 488: Write detected no listeners. My question is are the two errors related, and how can I fix these errors? All the NI Elvis software is 2.0, the original program was written in Labview 8.6, the computers have Labview 8.0 and 8.2 on them. The NI Elvis devices are connected directly through the computers, rather than through another device, I'm not sure if this might be causing some obscure hardware issue.
Hello Chris,
It looks like this error is associated with not having administrator privileges. Take a look at this other forum post for more information:
http://forums.ni.com/t5/Academic-Hardware-Products-NI/Error-2-when-starting-LabVIEW-from-ELVIS-Instr...
If you can log in as an administrator you should be able to avoid getting error 2 when you launch LabVIEW from NI Elvis. Alternatively, you can upgrade to NI-ELVIS 3.0, because the issue is fixed in that version of NI-ELVIS. You can find this by going to ni.com/support and searching for "NI-ELVIS 3.0"

# Question
Firefox crashes and when attempting to launch after the crash it won't launch; throwing an error msg that " js.3250 can't be found" - but same file is in Mozilla directory.
I must then download new 3.6.8 and lose all tabs and history.I have a similar problem. Recently my FF8 has been crashing a lot. It regularly locks up an entire core of my PC and often just shuts down. It has just done it a moment ago and when it started back up it did the whole "this is embarrassing" thing and asked me if I wanted to reload my tabs. I deselected the one that I was trying to view as I suspected that it may have been the cause (unlikely; it was node4.co.uk) but anyway, let's skip it just in case. Click on the button to restore and up pops my homepage only. So all of my other tabs, which I was using for work incidentally, are gone.
This is not the first time this has happened on FF8. It happened a lot recently on FF6 I think it was (so hard to keep track now, Mozilla) and I switched to Chrome as a result, but it turns out that it crashes even more than FF6 did. FF7 was a vast improvement but FF8 is so unstable/unpredictable for me at the moment that I think I'd rather use IE9 than this. It's driving me mental, clearly! I wish I could kill the process manually and have it retry restoring tabs. Hey, there's an idea Mozilla; give us a menu item that allows us to restore the session to how it started to try again or at the very least get a list of the pages we were looking at. They don't show up in Recently Closed Windows and the Restore Previous Session is greyed out too. Gah! Help! -
Hi,
I've just downloaded the trial version of Adobe Muse CC to my desktop. I'm using Windows 7. When trying to launch the app, I get asked to uninstall and reinstall Adobe Muse which i have done but still receive an Error:5.
How can i fix this?Moving this discussion to the Help with using Adobe Muse CC forum.
Bacusn I would recommend reviewing the installation log files for any specific error messages during the installation. You can find details on how to locate and interpret the installation log files at Troubleshoot install issues with log files | CC - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cc.html. You are welcome to post any specific errors you discover to this discussion. -
Captivate 6, error 16 when attempting to launch
I have adobe Captivate 6. When I attempt to launch it, I receive an error 16. Can you assist?
I did see that it was 6 but which version number: 6.0.0.199 or 6.0.1.240 or 6.1.319 ?
What about the other questions? Captivate has to be run as administrator and installed on the system, not networked, with documents on the system as well -
Printing to Adobe PDF - non-existant print queue or hanging up error
When printing to a pdf, the process is getting stuck in the printing/saving part of the process. As the attached image will show, the pop-up window shows the file name in the Document Name list, but it defaults to the file entitled "06-2013 Newsletter" (my apologies for all the black scribbles; they're there for privacy's sake). I am unable to select the name of the file I'm printing (in this case, "Combined"); it would appear that the pdf is trying to save into a file that already exists. I thought that perhaps the print queue needed to be cleared, but under Devices and Printers, "See what's printing" for the Adobe PDF printer shows nothing in the queue. The task then comes to a standstill and I am unable to continue.
After researching the issue, the only advice I can find is to do a "hard delete" of everything printing or spooling on my server to hopefully "force out" the stuck jobs, but this is not really an option during a busy workday when multiple jobs are printing at any given time. Is there a more simple solution that I am missing?Well, after restarting my machine the print queue was cleared of all the dead jobs, but when attempting to print to PDF it hung up again, and then did the same as before - all subsequent jobs tried to save as the filename of the first job in the queue. Very annoying!

I'm unable to launch an excel file in the Client App from OWA using google chrome. I am able to open the excel file in the web application, but when clicking "Edit Workbook" and selecting "Edit Excel" the file never opens.
Opening developer mode shows a javascript error. This error comes back as:
[blocked] The page at 'https://owa.mysite.com/x/_layouts/xlviewerinternal.aspx?ui=en%2DUS&r…g%2Fsites%2Fmiketest%2Ftestlib%2FForms%2FAllItems%2Easpx&wdEnableRoaming=1' was loaded over HTTPS, but ran insecure content from 'ms-excel:ofv|u|https://intranet.mysite.org/sites/miketest/testlib/SitePageVerification.xlsx':
this content should also be loaded over HTTPS.
Both sites are using https, so I'm unsure what the error is about. Any ideas?Hi Michael,
According to your description, my understanding is that you got an error when you tried to edit excel in client application with Chrome.
Per my knowledge, when you open or edit documents(from SharePoint library) in client application, it requires Open Documents ActiveX controls. Open Documents ActiveX controls limitations on browsers which do not support ActiveX. Currently only 32-bit versions
of Internet Explorer support this functionality. So , for resolving your issue, I suggest you use IE 32-bit.
More indormation, please refer to the link below:

I hope this helps.
Thanks,

Scan From File aborts the calling VI if it is pointed to a non-existing file
The Scan From File primitive throws an error dialog and aborts the VI if it's given a non-existing file instead of returning an error in its output. See attached example (8.6).

Scan from file bug.vi 7 KBAnna K. wrote:
Please let me know if you need assistance in working around this bug.
For anyone wondering, the workaround is simply to check if the file exists before trying to read it. You can do this by calling the File/Directory Info primitive and checking the error output. Or you can use the OpenG File Exists? VI.
I'm assuming this primitive is used rarely, if at all, which is why no one ever reported this. I had it in an old piece of temporary utility code which was moved elsewhere. It had a hardcoded path and when I ran it again a year or so after last using it, I ran into this. The only reason I used the primitive in the first place was because I wanted a quick way to save a number in a file and read it back. I never used it in any real code.
Anna, I don't personally care, but what's the CAR number? Some people do seem to want to know them.

I'd create a direcotrie and over utl_file.fopen I can write a file to this directorie, but this works over the path, not over the directory name. the utl_file_dir parameter was also set to the correct path. Whats wrong or how can I debug this problem?
thanks.
roger- the name of the directory is correct.
- how can I check, that the user can use the directory?
- in this logfile you can see that, the file name will replace correctly:

Application hangs for non existing value
Hi,
At the DB level I tried to query non existing value from the table, query came out with "no rows selected" . But when I try to do the same from front end, application hangs! I just checked in the statspack report it shows like query is taking more cpu time to execute. what could be the reason for this?
when I join the v$session,v$sql to get the currently running query on database, it shows the query which try to execute from the application as active.
why it is hanging in application and why not in DB?
can any one brief me on this regard? why does application hangs for non exsting value?
With Regards

Hi All,
I am trying to run currency conversion and following is my script logic.
*RUN_PROGRAM CURR_CONVERSION
CATEGORY = %CATEGORY_SET%
TID_RA = %TIME_SET%
RATEENTITY = GLOBAL
CURRENCY = %RPTCURRENCY_SET%
OTHER = [ENTITY=%P_CC_SET%]
*ENDRUN_PROGRAM
I have also tried the following reading from other post
*RUN_PROGRAM CURR_CONVERSION
SELECT(%RptCurrency_SET%,"[ID]",RptCurrency,"[CURRENCY_TYPE]='R'")
CATEGORY = %CATEGORY_SET%
TID_RA = %TIME_SET%
RATEENTITY = GLOBAL
CURRENCY = %RptCurrency_SET%
OTHER = [ENTITY=%P_CC_SET%]
*ENDRUN_PROGRAM
My RPTCURRENCY dimension had following entries
ID REPORTING CURRENCY_TYPE
USD Y R
EUR Y R
LC L
Also my Currency Conversion data package selection is as follows:
P_CC: ALL
CATEGORY: ACTUAL
RPTCURRENCY: ALL
TIME: 2008.JAN
Following is the error
RUN_LOGIC:Member "LC" not exist

Please help.
Thanks,

My LGX files is as follow
*RUN_PROGRAM CURR_CONVERSION
SELECT(,[ID],RptCurrency,[CURRENCY_TYPE]='R' )
CATEGORY =
TID_RA =

*ENDRUN_PROGRAM
If I am not wrong it should have substituted vales for variable %RptCurrency_SET% to USD and EUR.
Please let me know.

More Lion issues - Throwing Console errors for non-existent application
Again, with the bad side of Lion.
I was receiving all kinds of console errors in Lion with TweetDeck and Adobe AIR apps so I de-installed these applications and removed them from the system. However, Apple's fantastic Lion Operating System still is complaining about them even though they are not to be found.
In the console I am getting sandbox errors on locations and files that are non-existent. Below is a snapshot of the error messages, and the directory referred to: /Users/kkathman/Library/Application Support/Adobe/AIR/ELS/TweetDeckFast.... and the others DON'T EVEN EXIST!!
How do I keep this from happening? Why does the OS go after this when it's been removed?????

If you did not have an uninstaller supplied with the applications, then here's what you need to consider in order to fully uninstall:
Uninstalling Software: The Basics
Most OS X applications are completely self-contained "packages" that can be uninstalled by simply dragging the application to the Trash. Applications may create preference files that are stored in the /Home/Library/Preferences/ folder. Although they do nothing once you delete the associated application, they do take up some disk space. If you want you can look for them in the above location and delete them, too.
Some applications may install an uninstaller program that can be used to remove the application. In some cases the uninstaller may be part of the application's installer, and is invoked by clicking on a Customize button that will appear during the install process.
Some applications may install components in the /Home/Library/Applications Support/ folder. You can also check there to see if the application has created a folder. You can also delete the folder that's in the Applications Support folder. Again, they don't do anything but take up disk space once the application is trashed.
Some applications may install a startupitem or a Log In item. Startupitems are usually installed in the /Library/StartupItems/ folder and less often in the /Home/Library/StartupItems/ folder. Log In Items are set in the Accounts preferences. Open System Preferences, click on the Accounts icon, then click on the LogIn Items tab. Locate the item in the list for the application you want to remove and click on the "-" button to delete it from the list.
Some software use startup daemons or agents that are a new feature of the OS. Look for them in /Library/LaunchAgents/ and /Library/LaunchDaemons/ or in /Home/Library/LaunchAgents/.
If an application installs any other files the best way to track them down is to do a Finder search using the application name or the developer name as the search term. Unfortunately Spotlight will not look in certain folders by default. You can modify Spotlight's behavior or use a third-party search utility, Easy Find, instead. Download Easy Find at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.
Some applications install a receipt in the /Library/Receipts/ folder. Usually with the same name as the program or the developer. The item generally has a ".pkg" extension. Be sure you also delete this item as some programs use it to determine if it's already installed.
There are many utilities that can uninstall applications. Here is a selection:
AppZapper
Automaton
Hazel
CleanApp
Yank
SuperPop
Uninstaller
Spring Cleaning
Look for them at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.
