We have several users who log into a WinXP Pro workstation joined on a domain. One person has created a VI but when somebody else tries to run it, they get an error message:
Fatal Internal Error: "lvinit.cpp", line 1427
LabVIEW version 8.0
You will lose any unsaved work. For assistance in resolving this problem, please relaunch LabVIEW, or contact National Instruments
The VI was originally on a user's desktop and was copied to another folder.
I suspect the issue is related to being a restricted user (not a Power User or Administrator). I logged on with admin rights and changed the permissions so all users on the computer had Full Control to the folder that contains the VI - and I confirmed that the VI had the appropriate permissions. This made no difference. The VI hierarchy showed that other VIs were all in the LabVIEW folder.
We were able to work around the problem by simply giving the user in question full Admin rights when they logged on to their domain account, but we would prefer not to do this.
I suspect that there is an issue with how the computer has joined the domain: there was an error with the account NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM (Windows cannot update your roaming profile.), and I thought it was odd that when somebody creates a new folder on C:\, it has permissions only for that user (other users can list, read and execute but not write, modify and don't have full control.
Any help would be appreciated - though, for us, it has low priority.
Yours,
Richard Gymer
