NI Vision Builder built exe doesn't do the logging.

Solved!
Go to solution

Hello!
I made an application with NI Vision Builder for AI, and the executable version doesn't save the log file. While testing it in NI vision, it saves, when i migrate it to labview it saves, but when i build the executable file, that doesn't do the logging. What could be wrong?

The path in LabVIEW application and the path in EXE handles differently

You can follow this link to specify the path in EXE

I'm setting up the logging destination in Vision Builder and I can't change/modify it in the LabVIEW migrated version (I should say I don't know how to.).

Few questions to debug
-Where you are saving the log file in NI Vision Builder?
-How you are saving?
-What path you are giving for file? Is it relative or hard coded?

 

Adding this :check if it is similar to this problem:

I'm saving it with the data logging tool. You can see the path and the settings at the attached pictures.

-Please post at least screenshot of labview code where the file saving part existing.
-As described earlier the file path in code and exe need to be handled differently.

Solution
Accepted by topic author Sprake

Thanks for your replies, the solution was easier than I tought. There wasn't any problem with the path or anything like that. The problem was that, I checked the "Log as background task" checkbox, and (I think) there isn't any program what could execute this step. So I unchecked that, and now it creates the log file as I wanted to.
Again, thanks for your quick response!
