Get Error -21478467261 (0x80004003) when calling Teststand shutdown method from labview operator interface

[Kiebach]

I started with the simple LV Operator Inteface and added some of the features from the full featured example. Sometimes when I open a sequence file, it seems to lock all the controls on the front panel. I have also been seeing the above error when I try to shut down TestStand, this error also causes my program to hang.. Can anyone tell me what the above error is and how I might resolve the error.

Hello Kiebach,

I don't know which version of TestStand you are using, but this is not a standard TestStand error, it indicates an ActiveX communication problem. Does this problem occur when you run the original simple LabVIEW operator interface and shut it down? If so, then there might be a corrupted installation, so uninstall/reinstall.

If this does not occur in the original simple LabVIEW OI, then keep in mind that the biggest culprit in ActiveX errors with LabVIEW is not closing all of your references. Be sure to check on that everywhere you have added features.
