WebUtil ActiveX - WUO-706 error

I am using Form 10.1.2.0.2 and WebUtil 106. I have a ActiveX dll that contains dialog form. If the the dll does not show the form then everything works fine. As form in dll must be shown, when run bellow error comes up
WUO-706: Unable to invoke Method: mIme; Exception com.jacob.com.ComFailException: Invoke of mIme
Source: iTih
Description: Non-modal forms cannot be displayed in this host application form and ActiveX DLL, ActiveX Control, or Property Page.
Any idea how to fix this?

Both the Outlook type library and the M/S online documentation show that the display method on MailItem does not have a return type. try a simple INVOKE rather than INVOKE_OBJ

5% to 15% of sites fail to open due to 706 error. Started happening when I upgraded from FF 3.22; getting worse and worse with each FF 11 upgrade.

E.g., reading an online newspaper. I will open many tabs with different articles. About 1 out of 10 tabs will have a 706 error, which goes away when I click the reload button.
It's most noticeable then, but it occasionally happens (1 out of 10 sites) when I click a single link off my bookmarks menu, or manually enter a URL.
I think FF is not y waiting long enough for some kind of response from the remote link.
Like I said, this started happening when I upgraded from 3.22

All the page says is “failure to read response”
No proxy server.
I’ve got lots of add-ons: NoScript, BeefTaco, Ghostery, etc. How do I get a list for you automatically?
Here’s the response, if you can figure out who or what is generating it.

Webutil and Outlook - I get a WUO-714 and WUO-705 error

Hi,
I have installed webutil and it loads fine an all. However, I have a problem with a Microsoft Outlook integration. I am simply trying open an Outlook mail item, which is then filled out with some data. Pressing the Send button is up to the user.
Everything works until the line "mailitem2 := CLIENT_OLE2.INVOKE_obj(MailItem,'Display');" is called. Here Forms reports back: "100501: non-Oracle exception" and the java console gives a WUO-714 and WUO-705. The problems seems to be the Display method. At that point, despite errors, I do have an open, visible mail item with the proper data filled in. (In this process I noticed that the final invoke_obj should happen after you write stuff into the To, Subject and Body of the mail, but that's besides the point.)
Any advice you can offer is welcome.
Sincerely,
Jesper Vad Kristensen
Aarhus, Denmark

Call a dll with an activeX component gives error

Hello all,
My program consist of:
- Main program
- DLL's
How it works:
The main program is the interface for the user, this main program call's several dll's
The problem:
The main program runs withought problems, but when it call's a dll, which also call's an activeX component, I get an error.
I then made a executable from the dll which then works ok, no problem.
When I click the retry it runs ok, but when I call it again I get the message again.
The message does allways accur, but still very often
Conclusion:
The error message only comes when I call it as a dll, when the dll is standalone executable no problems occur.
Below you can see how I call the dll:
Can someone please help me with this problem?
greetz,
Bart

Hello Bas,
I have included the vi which calls de dll(executedll.vi) en the dll in VI form(plugin.vi & plugin.lvproj).
As you can see the dll calls the canconfigurator activex component.
And closes the activex component when done.
This plugin will be called several times in the test enviroment.

WEBUTIL Install/java init error

I am trying to run WEBUTIL in my pc in a development environment but can get the applet to start when I add webUtilArchive=/forms90/webutil/webutil.jar,/forms90/webutil/jacob.jar to my formsweb.cfg file. If I add it I get a java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError, if I remove this command I get a WUC-015 error. I know it needs to be there and have reviewed the install instruction many times, but can't seem to find any thing that I haven't done. In the development environment I can open the webutil_canvas with only the OLE bean missing. The only method I am using in the form right now is WEBUTIL_FILE.COPY_FILE. This is the first time I have used a bean on this computer and only have the default config/env files besides the webutil install changes.

Hi,
Can you please share your solution with me about correctly installing jacob.jar.
I have done everything, created cert and signed the cert twice but I still get the same answer that you got.
Thanks.

ActiveX Automation server error on deployed TestStand

I'm trying to deploy TestSTand 2.0 + LabVIEW 6.1 on a PC under Win-2K.
I created and deployed TS Engine and Operator Interface for LV.
I try to deploy the "Auto.seq" test from the TS exemples.
Of course, it works on my Development system.
On the deployed system, I got an error : -18351; An error occurred reading an ActiveX Automation server type library.
Step 'Read Database Option - Construct' of sequence 'Get Database Options' in 'SequentialModel.seq'
Step 'Read Database Option - Read Options' of sequence 'Get Database Options' in 'SequentialModel.seq'
After having ignored those 2 errors, the tests goes on normally and the report looks fine.
I also get this error opening the database configuration:
Step 'Read Database Option - Construct' of sequence 'Edit Database Options' in 'Database.seq'
From answers already given for similar subjects, I've checked that TsDBOptions.dll is present and registered (done regsvr32...) on the PC.
Can someone help ?
Note: upgrading to more recent TS + LV versions is not a solution!

Whether you are using database logging or not, you should not get an error like that when database options are loaded. From the kb's you specified it sounds like there was an issue with a COM/ActiveX server not getting registered in the past. Especially on machines in which TestStand was installed from a deployment rather than the main installer. Have you tried running the version switcher like the KB suggested? Did it succeed or give an error? If it gave an error what was the error? Could you perhaps try a fresh install of TestStand on a clean machine?

Flash Player 11 ActiveX install fails -- Error 1722

Hi,
I am unable to install Flash Player 11.5.502.149 on Windows 8. The error reported is:
Adobe Flash Player 11 ActiveX -- Error 1722. There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program run as part of the setup did not finish as expected. Contact your support personnel or package vendor. Action NewCustomAction1, location: C:\Users\Nick\AppData\Local\Temp\InstallAX_11_5_502_146.exe, command: -install -msi
We have tried running uninstall_flash_player.exe to try and clean things up but this still fails. Is there a known problem with installing Flash player ActiveX on Windows 8? Flash player Plugin works fine just the ActiveX version which does not.
Thanks,
Nick

Adobe http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html states
“Note: Release builds of Flash Player for Windows 8 are a part of the Windows 8 update”
So we cannot push flash directly, rather it is included in WSUS.
This is nice, but we have an application that crashes in IE 11 unless we use the Flash install from the Adobe site.
We have contacted the application vendor, but systems are down now.

ActiveX Automation Server Error -18351

I wrote a program using TestStand Version 4.5.1 and ran into this error code as soon as I initialize it.
Error loading type library/DLL.
Error Code: -18351; An error occurred reading an ActiveX Automation server type libarary Step 'Read Database Otion - Construct' of sequence 'Get Database Options' in 'SequentialModel.seq'
Bottom line, I'm not using or planning to use any form of database with my program. I just want it to run.
There was another document with ID 4IE7CCM6 that addressed this issue. Tried it, didn't help. I also went to the related links referring to the Knowledgebase document with ID 1HBAMMSR, didn't help either.
How do I fix this?

ActiveX GEPlugin Unspecified Error

Hi all,
I'm trying to use the Google Earth plugin with ActiveX in LabVIEW. Attached is the VI that I have been working on.
It mostly works, but I keep experiencing an error that I don't know how to resolve. Sometimes, for no reason that is obvious to me, one of the invoke nodes will throw a "-2147467259 Unspecified Error" upon execution, and the Google Earth control will not populate. Rerunning the VI after that point will always throw the same error. However, closing LabVIEW completely and then reopening it will usually cause the error to go away, and then the control will populate. However, running it again after it has populated will throw the error, which will keep reoccurring as before.
It's rather annoying to have to completely close LabVIEW every time an error is encountered; has anyone experienced this before?
Also, just a warning: I'm a mechanical engineering student with only a very small amount of computer programming experience. This is all quite new to me.
Thanks in advance!

Why does Step Fail cause a Lost ActiveX Connection Runtime Error?

A Step failure is a legitimate event. It should be recorded and execution should pass to the next step or cleanup as set up in the sequence or Station config. But I get this 17702 runtime error popup everytime. The steps are setup as single threads, dynamically loaded and unloaded.

Hello Bob,
Error -17702 is a CVI OLE (ActiveX) adapter error. This scenario that I'm familiar with is the following steps:
1) TestStand's CVI adapter is configured to "Execute Steps in an External Instance of CVI".
2) From TestStand, step into a CVI code module.
3) While inside the code module in CVI, click the "Stop" button. This stops the CVI debugger, and TestStand interprets this as error -17702. Here's the error message you see:
Error Message: Lost ActiveX connection to CVI. The CVI adapter will attempt to reconnect on next execution. [Error Code: -17702]
Note that if this scenario occurs, ALL CVI steps after this in the sequence will be marked with this same error number.
In the scenario I just described, the step is listed by TestStand wi
th a status of "Error", not "Failed".
Are your steps being marked with a status of "Error" or "Failed"? If they are listed as "Error", then an unrecoverable error (which kills the CVI debugger) is what has happened, and that needs to be corrected.
For instance, in the scenario I described above, the correction is to NOT click the "Stop" button; always let the CVI debugger execute through the code.
However, if your steps being marked with a status of "Failed", then perhaps something else is going wrong. I would first repair the installation of TestStand and CVI on your computer to see if that fixes the problem.

Using LabVIEW RTE vs. LabVIEW ActiveX Automation Server (TestStand LVRTS) for a TestStand Deployment and experienceing Unabel to Launch LabVIEW.Application ActiveX Automation Server Error 18001

I am developing in TestStand 4.2.1 and LabVIEW 2009, I have accomplished the following:
1. Deployment package is built and deployed on PC
2. PC has activated TestStand Deployment License
3. LabVIEW 2009 RTE was selected as the adapter for the sequence and thus I believe the deployed testexec.ini contains this.
I am experiencing the following error: "see attachment".
Is the LabVIEW RTE the right selection?
Is there something I may have missed in building the deployment?
Do I need to register the ActiveX server.
THere seems to be conflicing solutions based on Version of TestStand and LabVIEW!!
Thanks!!

Howdy mobiux,
Please consider KnowledgeBase 4V58058Z: -18001 Errors in TestStand. If you're using Vista or Windows 7, then this may apply as well. You might also consider ensuring you have the proper LV version active in the TS Adapter Options.

Bug Appeal: LV6 activeX with Excel; Error -2147319784

At Thu, 16 Nov 2000 14:55:00
"Dominic Lavoie" wrote:
<-2147319784 Old format or invalid type library.
Dominic and others
This is an old bug in LabVIEW that I have been fighting
with for several years. The problem (as I have seen it) is that
LabVIEW for some reason on some PC's suddenly becomes unable to read
from the (NT-) registry that Excel is installed as an
available ActiveX component on the machine. In my case the
Excel8.olb file.
Under earlier verion of LabVIEW no error messages
was generated, but you could see the problem when entering
the list over ActiveX classes, Type library. Suddenly the Excel
would be gone from this list, and it will not come back no matter
how you try to install, reinstall or reconfigure the Excel (or Office)
system. (And the Regsvr32 program does not handle OLB files.)
The only way I have heard to fix it, is to reformat the
harddisk and install the OS and everything fresh. But you might
see the problem coming back again.
There might be a possibility that this bug is not NI's, but one
in the OS. When I use other programs to View/Edit the registry,
these programs have no problems of detecting the Excel library.
So I believe it is a LabVIEW bug !
When working with Excel and ActiveX with this problem
meant that you had to manually browse to the OLB file each time you
would want to work with it, or you would sometimes get messed up
the wires and VI's working against the Excel library.
Now, under LabVIEW 6i, this situation creates the error message
-2147319784, and the problem suddenly seems much bigger.
I have reported this bug two month ago to NI, together with some
other people that has seen the same problem. So far NI has not
been able to locate the problem in detail or done anything with it,
as far as I have been informed.
This has been a very frustrating experience for me, because there are
many other features under 6i that I would like to use right away.
But since I am working a lot with Excel as a data format from LabVIEW,
I cannot proceed with 6i before they have broken this bug.
So now I would like the LabVIEW community to help me push NI
a little in their effort to debug this one.
All questions of course assuming that you have installed Excel
on your PC.
Could as many as possible out there check out if,
when testing the ActiveX/Excel examples;
A) under 6i; do you get the Error -2147319784 ? (YES or NO)
B) under 5.1.1 or earlier; can you run the example Write Table to XL.vi ?
(YES or NO)
C) if B=NO, can you locate the Excel library in the ActiveX class list ?
(YES or NO)
D) Where in the world are you located (country) ?
(Some has speculated that this bug might be connected to a problem
with different OS versions in different parts of the world.)
E) What version of Excel are you using ?
F) What OS are you running ?
If you can't do both A and B/C, send me the one you can.
Please report your results directly to me.
DO NOT REPLY TO THIS LIST. I will send a
summary after a couple of weeks, to let you know
the results. And also if NI seems to make any progress here.
best regards

It seems NI has been so kind as to remove the fix on this problem
from their Knowledgebase. Well, I dug up some old e-mails on the subject,
and here's one you should look through. According to NI this problem
should have been fixed under LV 6, so I really hope this is not what you are
facing...
Martin
Good news for all of you,
we have a bug-fix that seems to do the trick.
Here's the recipe , with my words:
Do You have the bug ?
You can confirm that the bug is there, by opening a new file in LabVIEW,
in the diagram, insert an Automation Open.VI, right-click on it,
Select ActiveX class, Browse, and check the Type Library list.
You should not see the Microsoft Excel5 and 8 library in the list,
if the bug is there.
As I have suspected for a long time, the whole bug was related to
how LabVIEW read the registry at startup to locate all ActiveX
components on the machine.
Here's the fix to try out;
1. Open the RegEdit program
2. Under HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT locate the TypeLib
3. Locate the Excel-key
On my machine this is {00020813-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}
(You will find it on top part, I think, not necessary to browse long
down.)
4. There are two base keys there, named "1.0" and "1.2".
Under the "1.0"-key, right-click and create new key, name it "0"
(zero).
5. Under the new "0"-key, create a new key kalled "win32".
6. Under the "1.0"-"9"-"win32" key you will find the link to the
Excel5-library on the machine, copy this link into the key you created
under pt 5.)
On my machine this is "C:\Program Files\Microsoft
Office\Office\XL5EN32.OLB".
That's all. Exit RegEdit.
Afterwards, check again that the Microsoft Excel5 and 8 libraries
is on the LabVIEW list mentioned above. After restarting LabVIEW of
course. It is not necessary to restart the PC.
Attached you wil find two gifs showing how this should look
in RegEdit before and after the described operation.
Good luck
PS: hacking around is the registry are do be done with
caution. The wrong actions here could have large consequences.
The two attached pictures should help you out,
but if you feel uncomfortable by working with the registry,
try to hook on to some hacker around that has been there before.
As I understand it, this is the reason that NI asked me also not to
give this info directly to the List-server. So please don't do it
you either. I plan to put the word out about the fix, not with these
details, but with a reference to the NI Knowledgebase that soon will
have this info.
You are welcome to send me a conformation that you see the
fix is working, or worst case, not.

ActiveX with LabView error 0x80070002

trying to use LabView to control another program which has a COM interface. I can select the Interface from the Ref control and I can see the methods associated with it but the Invoke call always returns an error and the errors are different. 0x8007002, 0x8003000E(??) I need more detail on how LabView uses the registry to attach to the COM object. I have read a bunch of various docs but still don't have a clear picture of what steps occur. The program is a seperate .EXE running in it's own address space not a .dll. Any COM Automation wizards out there?

Hi twowheels,
I am sorry for the misunderstanding with the COM interface. Which methods in the Type library are you trying to access? One possible method for finding out the correct way to reference the functions is to find someone else’s code that calls the method correctly and rebuild the process in Labview. I hope this is helpful and I understand the situation now.
