Hello,

I encoutner an issue on a system (that was previously working) when trying lo run a test sequence.(this issue occured after a power break down,)

When i am trying to run the sequence i receive the error message described below:

 

Unable to launch the Labview.Application Active X automation server. Teststand cannot find a Labview Development System installed in this computer.

 

Do you have any suggestions regarding this issue?

 

Thanks.

Did you check if LabVIEW starts properly?

Did you check activation of licenses?

Did you check configuration settings of LabVIEW (enabled ActiveX interface)?

 

If answers to above questions indicate "it should work" i recommend a repair installation of TestStand.

Hello,

Labview starts but just the process, i can get the interface running.

License is ok, by verifying the NI license manager.

How can i check the status of Active X interface?

So you don't get the LV window?

It sounds like you have to repair install LV.....

I alreday treid that, i reparied both Labview and Test Stand and even installed a fresh copy of Labview.

Can you explaing me where i can check the status of the Labview Active X ?

 

if i check using the dcomcnfg.exe the pathe for the Labview points to the location where it is installed.

Also veryfing in Test Stand in the  Configure Adapter , it recongnizes the Labview Development License that i have installed.

The configuration setting of LV ActiveX access can be found in the LV Options >> VI Server.

However, i am not sure if TestStand relies on that setting.

 

Does this issue occur with any VI you call from TestStand or only for specific VIs? Read: Please test with a simple, newly created VI...

It occurs for every VI that is loaded from Test Stand.

If i try to create a new test in Test Stand and select the Labview Adapter , i see the initializing Labview Adapter  message for a while and then i receive the error message from the first post.

Can you please post two images, one showing the error dialog, the other one showing your LV Adapter settings?
