Hi,
I am currently trying to connect a raspberry pi 5 to the Community 2025 version of LabView. I have been unable to install any version on to the Pi and at first it was connected, but now it is saying the "Unknown is not a supported Linx target". I have no idea what is happening and why there is no info on how to fix these issues. All the things I look up say that Raspberry Pi 5s should be supported by LabView. If anyone could help me, I would gladly appreciate it. The following images are what my LabView is showing. before hitting connect.
After hitting connect.
This is what the installation window looks like.

I haven't tried what you're doing exactly, but a couple thoughts- first, if it worked once originally, try reflashing the OS to the SD card. It's possible yours got corrupted somehow.
Also, check out this article:
https://kreiseder.org/2024/02/raspberry-pi-5-and-labview
It's in German, but Chrome can translate it to English. The author goes through a setup that wouldn't connect correctly.

Try addressing it by IP address instead of the name. Something about Windows networking.

I was unable to install the runtime on my RPI (though mine is an RPI 3B+) with Debian Bookworm (32-bit) via the Target Configuration utility in LabVIEW 2025 CE.
I finally was able to just take the Target Configuration utility completely out of the picture, and do an install manually on the PI. I downloaded the correct deb package from https://feeds.labviewmakerhub.com/debian/binary/ via "wget" on the PI itself, and then installed it via "apt"
1.) ssh into the target
2.) do command "wget https://feeds.labviewmakerhub.com/debian/binary/lvrt25-schroot_25.1.0-1.deb"
3.) from where file downloaded to (same directory), do command "sudo apt install ./lvrt25-schroot_25.1.0-1.deb". I got a wierd error at the end, something about permission denied, even though I think it installed, but I did step #4 anyways.
4.) do command "sudo dpkg -i ./lvrt25-schroot_25.1.0-1.deb", and that completed without any errors.
5.) do command "sudo systemctl restart labview.service"
6.) do command "sudo systemctl status labview.service" - you should see the service is active.
7.) then try to connect to the target via a LabVIEW project. I connected to the RPI via its IP address - not sure that makes any difference or not via hostname.

So do you have a question, or are you summarizing for us so we can see that you were successful?
Thanks.
