Get Error 6 about 50% of time when building Application

This could be related to the problem I have experienced. As soon as you are unsuccessful at creating a build, try to open the VI that was shown in the error message. When trying to open the FP of the VI, do you get the same "Unable to display the front panel..." message that I received?

I have the same problem only it is more like 90% of the times.

 

Any progress on this?

hfettig, can you report back if it's related to the error I received?

No, I have not seen any errors like that.

 

Still have errors during building.

So just to make sure, when you receive the build error, and then try to open the Front Panel of the VI that threw the error, you can open that FP with no problems?

I can open the VI that throws the error without any problems.

I have no problem opening the FP after a Build error.

Thanks, both, for responding! I'll duck out now, since this does not seem to be related to my issue (which also had erratic/unreproducible build errors as a symptom).

hfetti-

 

Can you give us any more information?  Can you give an example of code that exhibits this behavior?  Any sort of pattern that you have noticed?  Are you on a computer with similar specifications?  As of right now we can just guess at different causes.  That error means that LabVIEW doesn't have access/permission to delete our temporary files.  Are you using Google Desktop or a similar program that indexes your hard drive?  Can you replicate this on multiple machines with the same project?

 

Hopefully we can replicate this because if we can its much easier to provide a solution.

Have you tried application build on Intel i5-750 (4 core systems) [FAST multicore]  with Windows 7 Ultimate?

I can not share application code because of NDA. I will try and produce some test code.

No pattern except about 50% failure.

Only have 1 development computer, do not have another to try.

Have you tried to make your temp file deletion more resistent to failures? Like try multiple times with slight time delay between.

Google Desktop is not installed on the machine. Never was. No Google software is. Machine is 1 month old, clean, minimal software installed

I don't have multiple machines to try, maybe you do.

 

I am really not trying to be difficult with this.

I would like very much to see this issue found and fixed.

I am just giving you the facts: can't share code (confidential), have only 1 machine to try.

You may have to do most of the testing on similar machines and on multiple machines.

When I have similar code that shows the problem, I will post that.
