Write text to file produces error 1

The attached vi attempts to write text to a text file. The file name is automatically created from the current date (no file dialog box shall be displayed). When I run the vi, I receive an error 1 and no file is being created.

Hi,
To answer your question: The file path input of the Open/Create/Replace File.vi refers to a complete file path including the file name. I have modified your vi by concatenating the Location of Log File control with the Date string and using that as a file path. This runs perfectly without any errors.

Could not write the AIF file (session error)

I receive the error "Could not write the AIF file (session error)" when trying to record to Sound Track using any of my USB input microphones. Does anybody know how to resolve the problem?
Also, does anybody have any suggestions about what product to use to produce good multi-track audio files. I am interested in both a hardware and a software solution. It seems that using the standard Apple software that comes on the new G5s does not offer any good solutions.

Update to Snow Leopard then update Final Cut Studio. Chances are your problem will have been fixed.
In my experience, in previous iterations of STP there were a number of serious bugs related to saving files. Running everything up-to-date, however, I am no longer having those problems (knock on wood).

Write text to file

Hello,
I have copied some codes about writing text to file as follows:
import java.io.*;
public class Write
public static void main(String[] args)
    FileOutputStream fos;
    DataOutputStream dos;
    try
      File file1 = new File("C:\\Documents and Settings\\Louis\\My Documents\\MyFile.txt");
      fos = new FileOutputStream(file1);
      dos = new DataOutputStream(fos);
      dos.writeChars("Hello");
    catch (IOException e)
      e.printStackTrace();
}When the java file is compiled, the following compile error occur:
Write.java:17: cannot find symbol
symbol : constructor FileOutputStream(File)
location: class java.io.FileOutputStream
      fos = new FileOutputStream(file1);
1 errorIs that meant File class need to be imported? When I add "import java.io.File;" into the code, I can compile the java file.
But the line "import java.io.*;" is supposed to also import the File class and should not need to add that line. Is my logic correct? Please resolve my question. Thank you.

Sounds like you have a home-made class which you unfortunately named "File", that the compiler sees when compiling your code, rather than thinking that you meant "java.io.File".Yep... to fix that you'll need to remove both File.java and the resulting File.class from your classpath... Just delete File.class, and move or rename File.java.This same thing came up yesterday (with Queue) in this forum, right? Can I have a Friday moan?
A type name is ambiguous if occurs in more than one import:
import java.util.*;
import java.awt.*;
List x; //ambiguous: java.util.List or java.awt.List??
But if it occurs in an import and is defined in the current package, it's quietly assumed we want the type in the current package. I'd rather have this be another ambiguous compiler error, or at least have it generate the appropriate warning.
Couldn't hurt!

Click JButton in JApplet, write text to file to download

Ok, here's what i want to do... i don't even know if it's possible.
I want to click a button and have a popup window asking where to save the file to that was just created from output (a text file) instead of just clicking a button to write it to a predefined location (say c:\file.txt).
is there a way to do this?
thanks,

i want am IE or mozilla or wahtever window to pop up
and ask the user where to save the file. is this
possible?Read bbritta's response: yes it is possible, but you
have to sign the applet's jar and the user will get a
warning message.Ooh, sorry, you want a browser window to pop up? That'd be interesting. Maybe possible with some Java/JavaScript bridge and a servlet, but probably most complicated to implement.

Flash text "Invalid file name" error in Dreamweaver

I'm trying to create some flash text in Dreamweaver. But
after I've formatted the text in the dialog box and hit save, I get
the message "invalid file name" for my top.swf name. Can't figure
out why I'm getting the message, and it's not working. Anyone???
Working on this for a class and need to get my assignment done!

I'm guessing there is a "funky" character in the hd name or
in the path down
to the "local site folder"
please do this:
open a new file using File->New
--->do not save this file<---
type some text, select it, and make a link to something in
this site using
the property inspector folder icon to bring up the "browse to
file" dialog
box.
view source, copy that link, and paste into your reply.

Attempting to write data to file, but getting error 200279

I am having trouble when writing data to a file. About 10 seconds into the saving process, I get the error 200279. I have done some research on the topic, but am unable to corect my code. I believe I do not want to increase the buffer size, but would rather, I assume, read the data more frequently. The way I save my file is, before running the VI, I assign a location and name of the file (e.g. data.csv). The date and time is appended to the end of the actual file when the I begin to save the data (e.g. data_07-26-13_122615.csv). If the file does not exist, it creates a new file, then appends data to that file after every loop iteration. The reason I did it this way was so I do not have to worry about running out of memory, but apparently my code is flawed.
I will include a copy of the flawed section of my code. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Solved!

Your problem is that writing to disk is slow. It is slow enough that it is causing your DAQ buffer to overflow and cause the error and loss of data. What you need to do is implement a Producer/Consumer. This will put the daq and the logging to disk in seperate loops. This will allow the DAQ to run at the speed it needs to keep up with incoming samples and the writing to disk can run at whatever rate it can. You send the DAQ data to the logging loop using a queue.
You might also want to think about changing how you write to the file. That VI is constantly opening and closing the file, which is a very slow process if you are doing it inside of a loop.

Read/Write text files in LabVIEW

We have developed an instrument control and data acquisition system for a mass spectrometer using LabVIEW FPGA. Currently we have 6 counters on the FPGA, counting for 1 second intervals and transferring data to the host using a FIFO.
The data, as a local variable, is used in several different parallel loops on the host. One of these is coded to write the data to a text file. Unfortunately everything we have tried has failed. It is proving impossible using either the write to file VI provided with labVIEW, or to use the Open file, write and close file utilities. Each attempt has failed. Yet when running a dummy code we can write to files. The dummy code consists of 6 random number generators running in one loop and the write to file VI in a second loop. The random numbers are transferred across the loops as local variables.
Can anyone offer any advice as to what we might be doing wrong. We're beginning to feel as though we are banging our heads against a brick wall and getting very frustrated.
Many thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Hi Paul,
you neither say, what is failing nor do you show any code... How should we help then?
"impossible using ... the write to file VI"
Well, usually they work just fine.
"Each attempt has failed."
In which way? Error number given? Did you use the debuging tools, like probing, breakpoints and highlighting?
"as local variables."
It seems you're not properly do program "real" LabVIEW code

Image / file upload error cannot upload image even after setting write permissions

Hi there everyone
I am having this problem when I try to upload a file (image file) to my server
I have a dynamic for working fine , all the other fields insert the information ok then I try to add an image upload behaviour to a file field
When I try to upload the file I get this error
Error:
An error occurred while inserting the records.
File upload error: File upload error. Error creating folder..
File upload error. Internal error.

So I login to my server and change the write permissions to 777 and then try again and get the same message
I have closed DW and tried again and still get the same message......
I think I have followed all the steps correctly..... I have done the same type of forms many time and tested them locally on WAMP testing server and all work ok......
So..... Anyone got any ideas
Any help would be great

My backend is only for admin, so they are the only ones who can access the
upload pages. My concern is an images folder on the site being 777. Can't
anyone from the outside plant a file in that folder if they just know where
to find it using an ftp program? ?

Labview 9.0: Error 1 occurred at Write To Measurement File

Hi
Our University recently got the latest version of Labview (9.0 32-bit) which I installed today.The labview file I am using (my6008v6.vi) used to work fine with the older version (8.5 i think). My write-to-file VI is enabled at certain time intervals in order to log data. As soon as it is enabled for the second time I get the following error:
Error 1 occurred at Write To Measurement File->Copy of murray6008v6.vi
Possible reason(s):
LabVIEW: An input parameter is invalid. For example if the input is a path, the path might contain a character not allowed by the OS such as ? or @.
=========================
NI-488: Command requires GPIB Controller to be Controller-In-Charge.
I made a simple file (simplew2f.vi) to test this, with a button which I can press to enable/disable the writing of data. I am able to start writing data and then stop writing data but as soon as I try resume the writing the same error occurs.
This confuses me greatly since this wasn't a problem using the old version and my Labview knowledge is minimal. Any help would be appreciated.

So, which VI are you having problems with? Sounds like both...
Okay... - sigh - where to start....
Well.. Let's start with a few comments.
1. Try to stay away from the Express VI. I know the Marketing guys at NI will not like me for saying so, but I am saying so. They are a nice marketing feature that Grumpy Old Men like myself do not like. They make it easy to write quick code.. And I will limit my comments to that. (It's not your fault.. )
2. The wiring on your diagram is not clear or easy to read. Yes, with additional time and double-clicking each wire I can tell where they are going. However, a rule of thumb, alway wire from Left to Right. Never right to left. And do not run the wires under objects, even the ones you are wiring to.
3. simplew2f.vi: You should put a small delay in the While Loop. I ran it three times and it wrote to the files without error. And yes, I used LV2009.
4. my6008v6.vi: Avoid wiring from the top of the While Loop. At frist, it looked like the data was coming out of the While Loop because the wires went to the left side of all the index node of the Index Array function.
You should set your Browse Option for the file path to "Files or Folders" and "New or existing". I did that and I was not getting the error message you described.

Write Text Data Array to text file

Greetings all. I hope someone can help me as I am really under the gun. The attached vi shows the basics of what I am trying to do. I have already written a vi that takes the Cal Data Array and prints it out in a nicely formatted report. My problem is that the powers that be also want the data saved to a generic text file that can be copied and printed out anywhere they like. As such, I need to save the data to a generic text file in column format such that it will all fit on one page in landscape mode. There are a total of 12 columns of data. I have been trying to create something that would format each column to a specific length instead of them all being the same. No luck so far. Basically, I need columns 1,2,3,8 and 12 to be length of 5. The rest a length of 9. I have tried to place the formatting part in a for loop with the formatting in a case, but it does not appear to work. I really need this quick so if anyone has any ideas, please help. As always, I really appreciate the assistance.
Thanks,
Frank

pincpanter's is a good solution. Beat me to it while I was away building an example. Similiar approach using two for loops and case statement. Here is my suggestion anyway....

Write Text Data Array to text file.vi ‏31 KB

Write into existing file with "write to text file"

Hi all,
I have a text file that contains several lines of data (text). Now I would like to replace the first three lines with text coming from a string array.
My approach is shown in WriteToFile.vi that is attached.
When I am executing this vi (with an empty file), everything seems to be working fine in the first place.
The file will contain the following text:
oneoneone
twotwotwo
threethreethree
Now, when the third element in the array is shortened (lets say to "threethr") before execution, the file will contain the following text:
(the file was not emptied before execution)
oneoneone
twotwotwo
threethr
three
How can I avoid the last line being written? I have made many tests and I could not find a solution.
One more example:
Lets say we have an existing file, inside this file is:
oneoneone
twotwotwo
three
fourfourfour
Now I would like to overwrite line three with "threethreethree". Therefore I execute my vi as shown in the attachment.
What I get as a result is:
oneoneone
twotwotwo
threethreethree
ur
So, the text in line four, which should not be touched, is "ur" instead of "fourfourfour".
Any idea to solve this problem?
What I basically need is replacing a line of a text file in a conveinient way.
Thanks,
Holger

The remaining fourth line is there because the third line has a <nl> at the end. You have not emptied the file so the rest of the file will be kept. This is because your line is shorter.
In the scond example the third line is longer and it will overwrite the beginning of the fourth line.
Files aren't organized in lines they are oganized in bytes. And what you write are bytes to the file even with text files.
Replacing a single line in a file is done by reading the file line by line. All unchanged lines are written to a temporary file and the line with the new text will be written instead of the original line to the temporary file. When the writting is done rename the original file, then rename the new file into the original file and then delete the renamed original file.
