Serious problem with old versions of sub-vi's installing on application upload

Hi
I am having a series problem which is proving wildly frustrating.
I have recompiled an application but when I upload it on the host computers the host computers seem to upload old versions of the code even though they have been deleted.
I smell a Windows Cache problem but can't see how to get round it.
Anybody have any ideas.  If not should I shoot myself before or after I get fired?
Either way help appreciated
Ash

Hi Ashley,
      I've been compiling and deploying LabVIEW applications for a long time, and never seen a windows-cach problem!
Here are a few (of my) mistakes that resulted in execution of old code:
Forgetting to update the Top-level VI in the .bld, after the top-level VI's location changed.
Compiling to a different location than the one I copied the "new" EXE from.
Compiling with Installer option, then switching-off Installer option (for faster compiles), then, post compile, instead of copying new EXE - doing an Install and installing old EXE!
After copying or installing new EXE to host, forgetting to update menu-options and "shortcuts" - which still point to old EXE.
Some ideas:
Write a new/unique version# to the Main VI's Window Title (VI properties), so you can tell quickly which version is running.
After compiling, pay close attention to the creation time of the "new" EXE to be sure it is new.
After copying or installing, launch the new EXE by double-clicking on it (don't trust existing shortcuts.)
Cheers!

  • Problems with Old version of iTunes!!!

    After finding out that my AOpen DVD drive is not compatible with ITunes version 6, I downloaded version 5 from oldapps.com. When I try to play a song or burn a cd, it tells me that my computer is not authorized. After authorizing it, a message says: "This item (song) requires a later version of ITunes to purchase". Of course I've alreay purchased these songs and simply want to play or burn them. Also, I have not authorized my songs on any computer but mine. Is there anyway to play and burn songs I've recently downloaded using an old version?

    DON'T UPGRADE!!! If you have seen any of the discussions regarding 7.5, and there are too many to count, you will know why. I avoided upgrading, the whole "if it isn't broke" theory, until I tried purchasing some new music and I was prompted that I had to upgrade in order to get the new music. I upgraded and now I can't burn the music I purchased. Trying to burn causes my computer to "crash". I've spent countless hours trying to figure this out, and frankly I'm afraid to connect my iPod for fear of what will happen to that. Read through some of the discussions regarding 7.5, I think you'll choose not to upgrade.

  • In FCPX 10.1.2 how do you edit in proxy mode...and after you are done editing in proxy mode, how do you switch back to original media? I had no problems with old version but complicated with newer version.

    In old version of FCPX I could easily edit in proxy mode which i found to be a quicker way of editing...all i did was goto preferences and click on playback tab and change it from original media to proxy...and i could go right into editing, and when i was finished before i would export my project i would switch back to original media...then i would export my project. Now i'm having a hard time accomplishing this on the newer version fcpx 10.1.2.  Somebody please help me....thanks in advance!!!

    This doesn't make sense. Your statement "even though it's showing its connected" means that iTunes does see the iPad. Or am I misreading what you are saying?

  • Urgent! Serious problem with J2EE Classloader!

    Hi all,
    I'm having a serious problem with j2ee Classloading.
    I have "inherited" a J2EE application where all business classes (invoked by the EJB) are placed in the Application's Server classpath (Weblogic 8.1.4).
    Very bad because every time a class is changed the a.s. must be restarted.
    So I re-enginereed the package putting the business classes in a jar that is referenced by the EJB's MANIFEST file.
    This way all the classes would be loaded by the EJB classloader and no need to start/stop weblogic.
    Unfortunately it's not such !! I discovered that all business classes are loaded via REFLECTION
    Object objCommand = objClass.newInstance();
    Object[] param = new Object[1];
    param[0] = aDataContainer;
    objDataContainerReturn = (DataContainer) objMethod.invoke(objCommand,param);
    and the application server cannot find them using the standard J2EE Classloader mechanism.

    at irma.business.service.LoginService.login(LoginService.java:79)
    On the other hand they're found if I put the classes on the application server classpath.
    Has anybody got advice for this ? Should I refactor the application giving up reflection ?
    Thanks a lot in advance.

    Reflection uses the classloader as well so it should work fine.
    A common cause of a NoClassDefFoundError is something in a parent classloader that refers to something only available in a child loader.
    For instance, do you have any of your application classes which are in the $CLASSPATH but reference something that is only (now) in the business.jar in your ear?

  • Problem removing old versions with customization wizard 8

    I'm trying to deploy Acrobat Reader 8 to our XP Professional desktops via Active Directory software installation (Windows Server 2003 domain)
    I have obtained the MSI release of Reader 8, customised it using Adobe Customization Wizard 8, and deployed it through AD as per the Adobe documentation. This works as expected for new machines without a previous release of Reader installed.
    However for desktops that have Reader 6 or 7 installed, we end up with two versions installed side by side (visible in Add/Remove Programs). Reader 8 works fine at this point. Removing the older version causes the PDF file association that Reader 8 created to be broken, also the Internet Explorer browser plugin is broken. Reader 8 has to be reinstalled manually to fix this issue.
    I have read that Reader automatically removes old versions of itself when you install a new version. Additionally, when customising the MSI, "Remove previous version of Reader" is greyed out. However it appears that the installer is not removing old versions.
    Any ideas as to a solution?
    Thanks a lot
    Tom Fanning

    I have the same problem and i have wasted like 50 hours on this s**t. I'm trying to deploy reader 8 on our 1800 XP workstations with SMS 2003.
    The cutomization tool is totally useless. The only way i have came up with is to create a script wich checks if earlier versions of Adobe reader is installed by looking if the installation folders exists (for example c:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 7.0\Reader ).
    If the installation folders exists, the script would run the uninstallatoin string of the reader using its Windows installer product code, like this:
    MsiExec.exe /x /qn {AC76BA86-7AD7-1035-7B44-A70000000000}
    Now, the problem with the script is that we have several versions of reader 6 and 7 including 3 different languages. The script or the .BAT file would be quite complicated and the testing is allmost impossible.
    I think that it would be much more easier to create a script that deletes all the shotcuts for Adobe reader and then installs a Freeware product for openig PDF files.

  • PowerPoint experienced a serious problem with the 'adobe presenter powerpoint com addin' add-in.

    I've installed Adobe Presenter V7.0.7 Build 7746. When I open an existing PowerPoint file and try and use Presenter, I get the following error: PowerPoint experienced a serious problem with the 'adobe presenter powerpoint com addin' add-in. If you have seen this message multiple times, you should disable this add-in and check to see if an update is available. Do you want to disable this add-in?
    No, I don't want to disable it. When I click No, PowerPoint stops working. I get a message that says: Microsoft PowerPoint has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly, Widows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available. My only choice is to click the Close program button.
    When I open the PPT file again, I get the same "experienced a serious problem" message. If anyone has a solution to this, I'd appreciate knowing what it is. It took me a while just to get the Presenter option to appear in the PowerPoint toolbar. Now that I have it, it's not working.
    Thank you!

    Thank you for your quick reply. Here are the answers to your questions.
    1. The file I'm having issues with was not created using any version of Presenter. It is simply a PowerPoint file.
    2. The file is a PPT not PPTX.
    3. I am running Windows7 and Office 2010.
    I think I might have found the solution to the problem. I opened the PPT file and saved it as a PPTX file. Then I clicked the Presenter option in the PowerPoint toolbar and was able to select different Presenter options with no issues. I opened other PPTX files and I did not get the error window stating 'PowerPoint experienced a serious problem with the 'adobe presenter powerpoint com addin' add-in'.
    This seems to work. So, it appears that any PPT file needs to be saved as a PPTX file before using Presenter. If you have another solution that I might be able to keep in my back pocket (in case this happens again and what I did does not work), then please answer. Otherwise, I'm good now.
    Thanks!

    Hi Suzy Q,
    I can send and receive calls.
    I get "messaging stopped" when doing a lot of texts.
    Texts come up "ghosted" meaning they have the text on the bottom and a transparent one overlaid  on top. they then become one. But I get the ghosting most of the time when I go into a message from a contact to send a text.
    When I go to call logs or text logs, the numbers come up first, and then then the names pop up randomly, meaning not in order down the page, until they are all shown. lots of lag time.
    It runs slow.
    I have 5 apps on here. I should be able to have a  lot of apps on here, and play music, and have files, and...and....and.
    I can get online but doing a Google search, when the page with the choices comes up, it is blurred and I have to tap on the screen for it to become clear and readable.
    When online and scrolling, it hitches sometimes/lags/gets stuck then unstuck
    I get VZWAVS has stopped. (not sure if those are the right letters)
    The status bar that is supposed to be gray with the new update, goes back and forth between green--the old os--to gray. And I have found no continuity with when I get green or when I get gray.
    I get a black screen on occasion.
    sometimes the proximity sensor doesn't work.
    sometimes when I have my bluetooth on and have "hands free mode" on, I get the a text message read through the headset and also through the handset.
    I soft reboot often--turn it off wait a bit and

  • Addons - new versions of addon with old versions of B1

    Hi guys,
    Does anyone know if new versions of addons work with old versions of SAP B1?
    I have a client who is asking for the latest Payment Engine (PL70) but they are on SAPB1 2005A SP01 PL12 which has the Payment Engine PL30.
    My thinking is that you will need to upgrade the B1 app to PL34, if you want to use the latest addon?
    or am i way out and infact the addons work independently of B1 and will therefore work on an old patch of B1?
    TIA,
    John Treweeks

    Hi John,
    Patches are bug fixes and do not change functionality (unless the functionality was broken of course ). Addons communicate through the UI and DI APIs which are installed as part of the patch. Therefore, the theory should be that addons are pretty much patch independent.
    But, as has been pointed out above, it's really difficult to predict exactly what results you'll get. I guess sometimes an addon patch could have been released in order to correct a problem that was both addon and DI API related. In that case, you'd need to install the addon patch and the SBO patch.
    I never recommend you go to the latest patch until it has been around for a few weeks. However, going to a patch that is dated just prior to the addon patch release sounds like a sensible policy. In any case, testing is vital, prior to installation on a production site.
    Kind Regards,
    Owen

  • "Outlook has experienced a serious problem with iCloud Outlook add in"

    January 9, 2013 - I have been getting this message on and off for the past few weeks. The message goes on to suggest disableing the add in to stop the problem and avoid damage to my computer (PC with Windows 7 / 64 bit with Outlook 2012 and an up-to-date iCloud). Disableing the add-in does stop the problem, but then, of course, nothing on iCloud (contacts, notes, etc.) syncs any more. How do I fix this?

  • Serious problem with encrypting options of Symbian...

    Hello to all
    Yesterday I've got a serious problem with the encrypting options of my Nokia C7 with Symbian Belle.
    After encrypting all memories (300MB C: internal memory, 8GB D: mass memory and 8GB microSDHC memory card) I saw that even for the user all files were unreadable (even the name of the file).
    It's not like the old password system for memory card present until Symbian Anna (that made the memory card inaccessible only for other phones and pc).
    So I decrypt them, wanting to turn back the situation. The 300MB C: internal memory was correctly decrypted, same as the 8GB E: microSDHC external memory card.
    But the internal 8GB D: mass memory was decrypted and wiped out. Or, for better explanation, it was formatted.
    FORTUNATELY I'm obsessed with data security so the internal mass memory contains only the maps and some video copied inside the memory (I don't remember well but I think that was all).
    But I think that is a serious problem. I sincerely don't want to retry again for checking if this was only a case or a recurrent bug...

  • Serious problems with WYSIWYG

    Hi,
    I have some serious problems with placements in 3.0. Items sits just fine i design mode, but in quick preview or in browser preview, items goes all over the place.
    The only way to go around the problem is to shift the item in design mode and make successive previews to see, if the item now sits correct. And even this metode is not optimal, because sometimes this action moves other objects on the page in preview as well....
    This ofcourse means, that I do not have any WYSIVYG at all.  And the worst is, that I never know which of the items on a page will course the next problem. Very, very frustrating!
    My last updated version (must have been 2.3...) was faultless. I made a customer site in this version before upgrading.
    This page has now been approved, but opening the site in version 3.0 is futile. In designmode everything looks fine, but in preview it looks like something I tried to code myself.... I don't know what I will tell my customer, but it's not good. Not good at all.  
    I have attached two screendumps. The first one shows the page in design mode. Everything looks fine and every item sits correct. On the second screendump you see the slideshow is going up and behind the topbar, which is center pinned. Notice that there is no scrollbar, so I can't scroll down. This problem is just one of the above mentioned. Other problems are text or pictures that refuses to align horizontally, pictures that goes way out to the top - or the bottom....
    I tried to check the sticky footer on and off, but no result either. I have even rebuilt the version 2 site, pasting the items anew, but still it goes wrong in the browser. 
    Am I the only one experiencing this problem? If you want to see the muse file, you are welcome.
    Regards a very unhappy customer  

    Hi Sachin, no, But I do have a center pinned topbar. I have tried to un-pin the topbar, but the problem with misplaced items still appears. Its important to emphasize that in designmode everything looks fine, but in preview or a browser files are misplaced or hidden behind each other.
    I tried to check the sticky footer on and off, take away footers on the masterpage etc. because it seems that something on the page is pushing or attracting some of the placed items.
    The problem basically is, that Muse 3.0 does not give me WYSIWYG, and that is a dissaster for a designer!

    John
