Error 8 Compilation Error. File permission error or DMA hardware error detected

[nantha]

I just upgraded my Labview code to Labview 8.5 from LV8.2.1

Then I tried to compile my code to get an .exe file

I keep getting the following error,

Visit the Request Support page at ni.com/ask to learn more about resolving this problem. Use the following information as a reference:

Error 8 occurred at Write to Text File in AB_Engine_Update_INI_Header.vi->AB_Application.lvclass:Create_INI_File.vi->AB_Application.lvclass:Copy_Files.vi->AB_Build.lvclass:Build.vi->AB_EXE.lvclass:Build.vi->AB_Build.lvclass:Build_from_Wizard.vi->AB_UI_FRAMEWORK.vi->AB_Item_OnDoProperties.vi->AB_Item_OnDoProperties.vi.ProxyCaller

Possible reason(s):

LabVIEW:  File permission error. You do not have the correct permissions for the file.
=========================
NI-488:  DMA hardware error detected.

C:\UserData\LabView\IFX Interop Test exe\GMXiTest.ini

I never have this problem if I compile using LV8.2.1.

Please help! Thanks.

hi there

just to be sure: has 8.5 been installed under an other account than yours? make sure you have the windows access rigths to the LabVIEW - folder.

Hi,

Yes I have administrator rights on the PC. It was installed with full R/W permission.

I saw in the forum that others are having the same problem and tried this work-around mentioned but it did not work.
