Very strange error "(Hex 0xBFFF003E​) Could not perform operation because of I/O error"

Hi everyone! I've seen many similar threads but I haven't found an answer. I'm using labview 8.5 and through visa i'm controlling a USB controller which communicates with an FPGA. This pcb, is connected to a second pcb which also has another FPGA and the data are transmitted from the usb controller to the first FPGA and to the second FPGA (and vice versa). The really strange thing is that the system had been working fine for severall months but now this error appears when i remove from its connector the jtag i use to program the FPGA located on the second pcb (!!!) and everything goes back to normal when i place it back! Could it be a hardware problem? 

Hi,
What protocole are you using to communicate to the board?  If it is VISA then it could be a problem with the COM ports and resources on your computer.  Is the session connecting to the FPGA still active when you are disconnecting it?

  • VISA: (Hex 0xBFFF003E) Could not perform operation because of I/O error

    Hello
    I'm trying to communicate with a device which have to be tested with my application. So I send it a command to initiate the device to send me back some values. This values are sended continously with a baud rate of 57600.
    I create a VI to test this communication but I always get the error:
    VISA:  (Hex 0xBFFF003E) Could not perform operation because of I/O error
    I have googled for this thread, but all the described solutions didn't solve my problem (ex. Set Buffer Size to 48, Various Byte Count Values for the VISA Read function, etc.).
    Note: the VI works properly in the LabView 6.1! I have tested. I also tried to receive the Data with a Termial programm (works fine). But another COM Port (on an USB Serial converter) shows me the same Error.
    I just updated to Visa 3.4.1, but no success
    LabView 8.0.1

    Yeah it works
    of course buffer to 4096 and mask to 48
    I added a Flush I/O buffer (mask 16) before reading from Visa (problem was to read data).
    And suddenly it works fine.
    I can't reproduce where the error exactly was. Could it be possible that the RX buffer was already full
    at the time I would to read from Visa or at the time the COM port received data? There are some questions to find out:
    how does LV handle the buffers? will the buffers be cleared if LV starts? when does LV flushes the
    buffers?
    thx

  • (Hex 0xBFFF003E) Could not perform operation because of I/O error.

    I am seeing this error in the code attached.  I have tried to implement the fix using the following link
    http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/60DDFED7EFEFE7188625705700750821?OpenDocument.
     to no avail.
    I am at a loss as to what is happening; this is a very very simple VI that is not yet even close to completion but all I am doing is starting up said board and waiting for an initial power up string to appear and I check for 4.8.0 in the string.  Where the Error first occurs is after the first read in the case structure that is looking for the start up string.
    The while loop with the empty case structure is for furture commands, so there is nothing in there at this time.
    Anyone have any ideas as to what my issue could be?  I feel this has to be something stupid that i am doing incorrect.
    Thanks,
    Bill

    Thanks for the criticism Ravens fan, I appreciate it, being that i am somewhat of a novice with LabVIEW it helps. 
    "VISA:  (Hex 0x3FFF0006) The number of bytes transferred is equal to the requested input count. More data might be available."
    The above warning I got to appear when I restarted the computer and ran the test again.  I then set the expected bytes by hand and the original error appeared again.
    Thank you for pointing out the dumb mistake I had with my converting to a number, I am still trying to figure out why I did that...I think I was going to try putting this into test stand for some sort of numeric limit test, but ya I don't need it.
    I don't Think I need the flush buffer either here, I took it out and still no help with the error.
    Also, what I didnt state in my first post was that the data is being given to me at the port, so i can perform my string test on the data in the buffer, it's just after the read the error appears so I can not continue executing the rest of my code without passing the error (Yes I can just clear the error, but that seems to not be a smart thing to do).
    I also have the right port settings set and I have had problems with termination characters in the past screwing up my vi's with this particular board so I just automatically disable the termination character.
    I am wondering if there is a flush buffer call in the Visa read vi?  Would this cause me my error?
    Could null characters in the data being sent back give me the error?  My data from the buffer is as seen below in code display
    \00\00XXXXX\s"XXXXXXXXXXX"\s\s4.8.0\sFT\r

  • What does 'Appliance Error (configuration error) Your request could not be processed because of a configuration error: account is disabled' mean?

    All of a sudden Safari on my MacBook Air won't let me do anything. I have a Mac OS X Version 10.7.5.
    As soon as I open Safari, a message comes up straight away saying 'Appliance Error (configuration error) Your request could not be processed because of a configuration error: account is disabled'.
    I also can't check for system updates because of a 'network error' and can't connect to the App Store.
    My internet is working fine and safari is working fine on both my iPhone and iPad.
    I've never seen this message before and I'm not having much luck in searching for an answer.
    This may be a silly question, I don't know, but does anyone have a solution?

    Back up all data.
    From the menu bar, select
     ▹ System Preferences... ▹ Network
    If the preference pane is locked, click the lock icon in the lower left corner and enter your password to unlock it. Then click the Advanced button and select the Proxies tab. If any proxy options are selected, make a note of them and then deselect them. You don’t need to change the bypass or FTP settings. Click OK and then Apply. Test. The result may be that you can't connect to any web server. Restore the previous settings if that happens.

  • Please help with this error: "Your request could not be completed because of a disk error"

    So photoshop cs6 was working fine a few weeks ago. After not using it for about 2 weeks, I try opening a RAW file and I get this error every time. JPGs open and work fine. I have extensively searched on the internet for solutions and have tried everything such as: disk checking, deframgenting, playing around with photoshop preferences, deleting temp files, resetting preferences, clearing disk space. I have assigned two hard drives for photoshop, one with 16 GB free and the other with 8 GB free. I am getting very frustrated. Please help!

    That's woefully inadequate for scratch file space.
    The rule of thumb I follow says to figure on 50 to 100 times the size of your largest file ever multiplied by the number of files you have open.  I have seen the scratch file exceed 300 GB once, an admittedly rare occurrence, but it often exceeds 200 GB when stitching large panoramas and the like.
    Additionally, if either one those two drives you mention with "16 GB free and the other with 8 GB free" happened to be your boot drive, you'd be in a heap of trouble because neither one of those drives has nearly enough space to accommodate the swap files of the OS and Photoshop's scratch.
    As an example—and stressing that I'm aware that others have even more scratch space than I do—I keep two dedicated, physically separate hard drives as my primary and secondary Photoshop scratch disks and a lot of GB free on my boot drive for the OS.  I have 16 GB of RAM installed:

    Make sure your hosts file on each server in your farm has 127.0.0.1  webappname in it for each SPSite you're trying to crawl
    Look in %systemroot%\system32\drivers\etc and edit the hosts file so that it has entry for web app
    make sure search account listed as access account is also service admin for search service
    check user policy on web app, make sure that account has full read
    Check that SharePoint Web Services Root app pool is started on server that is indexing farm
    if still cant crawl, give search account db_owner on content db using sql server management studio
    Set BackConnectionHostNames for site collection.
    Then in a non prod environment, reset index and perform a full crawl, repeat in prod.

  • "Could not use the ***** because of a program error"

    I'm using Photoshop CS CC on the new Mac which looks like a rubbish bin, and keep receiving "Could not use the ***** because of a program error". Does anyone know a work around or fix as I can't work with photoshop.

    There seem to be recurring permissions errors for Photoshop running under OS X Mavericks. You might check into disk utility : repair permissions, or very carefully manually altering permissions here and there.
    Not entirely sure this relates to your issue, but it might help:  http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1404674?tstart=0
    And  http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1403095?tstart=120
    And I'm sure you can search for several more threads related to permissions issues with Mavericks. I think Apple needs to do an update to Mavericks. But with careful permissions alteration, you can probably get PS working.
    Once you're pretty secure in what permissions can change and what permissions should never change, you can Google a permissions utility called BatChmod. It rocks, is extremely powerful, and in the wrong hands can destroy your entire system.  :+)  So be careful ...

  • ERROR: "The iPhone could not be synced because the sync session failed to start.?"

    I have iTunes 10.5 (whatever the most updated is) with the new iPhone 4S. Its new, i never dropped it, and i'm 99.99999% confident there's nothing wrong with it.
    With that in mind, these last few days this strange error, "the iphone could not be synced because the sync session failed to start"... It used to sync properly but now it just doesn't sync at all.
    I have Windows Vista also. This is not normal and i've never seen this before.
    What can I do to fix this error?

    The way I fixed this (though I'm using a iTouch 4G): disconnect your iPhone from the computer, shut down iTunes, then reset your iPhone by holding the Power/Sleep & Home buttons together for 10 seconds. Restart iTunes, then when your iPhone restarts, reconnect it to the computer, and everything should work fine

  • 2 errors: "Your iPhone could not be activated because the activation server is temporarily unavailable" and the sim says "searching" while iTunes says there is "No Sim installed" - but of course, there is! Any help please??

    2 errors: "Your iPhone could not be activated because the activation server is temporarily unavailable" and the sim says "searching" while iTunes says there is "No Sim installed" - but of course, there is! Any help please??

    Hi Peter,
    Thank you for the note - I have seen similar replies on other posting errors and I see how that could make sense. The thing is, my iPhone is not jailbroken - it is from an authorized distributor. However, when I told them about the "no service" problem on the sim, they were unable to assist. Then my phone messaged that an itunes restore was required - so I did that, several times, to the error message now noted on my post. I wonder if there is some other way to over-write this message? Thanks very much.

  • Error: Your request could not be completed because a failure occurred while the report was being processed.

    Post Author: sagimann
    CA Forum: Deployment
    Hello,
    I'm not sure if this is due to bad deployment, but I suspect it is, at least due to bad environment.
    My env is:
    Solaris 10 64 bit
    Oracle 10g client installed under /opt/oracle/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/client_1
    BOXIR2 + FP2.6 installed under /opt/reporting, running under user 'bouser'. by the way, 'tnsping' works via that user.
    Important bouser env:
    ORACLE_HOME=/opt/oracle/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/client_1
    TNS_ADMIN=$ORACLE_HOME/network/admin
    LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib:$ORACLE_HOME/lib32
    I reboot the box, then start BO like so:
    cd /opt/reporting/bobje
    . setup/env.sh
    ./mysqlstartup.sh
    ./startservers
    ./tomcatstartup
    Then, I import a BIAR file with some reports, and whenever I try to open any report via infoview, I get a gray error message INSTEAD of the input param form:
    Error:
    Your request could not be completed because a failure occurred while the report was being processed. Please contact your system administrator.
    This does not occur in our BOXIR2 on Windows, which is why I'm guess it's a deployment/env issue. The main obstacle I have is: how do I diagnose this? there's nothing in the bobje/logging folder, nothing in the /var/adm/message file except for the following line:
    May  5 15:23:23 testbox1 boe_pagesd[3865]: [ID 253862 user.error] A failure occurred while the Page Server was processing report 'test report' (id=777) for user Administrator
    pls advise,
    thank you.

    The solution is to turn off the printer preference (bottom of Page Setup screen) in the Crystal Report before uploading to the Server. Thanks to: http://pinchii.com/home/2011/12/error-adding-reports-to-crystal-reports-server/
    The explanation, from a comment in the above linked blog post:
    "To elaborate more on the error, what basically happens is that the Crystal Reports engine tries to get the status of the u201Creport printeru201D aka u201Cdefault printeru201D which was present on the system when the report was created, but the printer does not exist anymore. This causes the Crystal engine to error out. By setting the report to u201CNo Printeru201D, it tells the Crystal Engine not to look for that report printer when opening the report."

    I have a new device. When selecting the language and country I am trying to connect to a wifi connection and getting the error 'Your Iphone could not be activated because the activation server cannot be reached. Try connecting to your Iphone to iTunes to activate it, or try again in a few minutes.

    Where exactly did you get this phone?
    Do you have a SIM in the phone?
    There are 2 primary causes for this.
    Either you don't have a SIM in the phone, which is REQUIRED to activate it, or the phone was hacked to unlock it.

  • Photoshop/Bridge CS6 Could not build preview because of a disk error: Mac10.8.2

    The crashes always occur while editing a photo  in the Camera Raw editor in Bridge (most of the time they are JPG files, yes you can edit JPGS in the Adobe Camera Raw editor) and then hit the "Open Image" button that will open the image in Photoshop. That's when things lock up. Often Bridge, Photoshop and InDesign all are "not responding" and have to be force quit.
    Always when I'm editing a photo in Photoshop that is on a server I get the " Could not create a preview because of a disk error message" which I have to hit the OK button to clear. I just tested this several times and I never get the disk error message when editing an image from my hard drive. I suspect there is a network communication problem.
    MacBook Pro 15" Early 2011
    2.2 GHz Intel Core i7
    8GB 1333 Mhz DDR3 RAM
    AMD Radeon HD 6750M 1024 MB
    OS 10.8.2 (12c60)

    I am having the same problem.  I work off of a server too and I get the "Could not create preview because of a disk error" message too.  The actual preview itself is there once I hit OK but this is so annoying because it keeps me from batch processing images.  The message comes up for each image you try to save out so you have to set there and hit enter between each image when you run an action.  Any help to correct this error would be greatly appreciated!  Thanks.
