Deploying Shared Variable library error -2147220735

Solved!
Go to solution

I had to reinstall my whole LabVIEW installation, as my SSD was getting to full. I uninstalled everything and installed freshly everything on a larger hard drive. Unfortunately, I'm now getting an error and wonder what I have to reinstall. 

 

When I want to deploy a Shared Variable Library in LabVIEW 2014 32-bit, it returns with an error:

 

Initializing...

Preparing items for download. This operation could take a while...

Deployment completed with errors

Any suggestions?

You are trying to deploy to 10.0.10.45, whatever that is.  If you open the NI Distributed System Manager, can you see this target?  If you open the target, can you see deployed variables?

 

I'm forgetting who "manages" the Shared Variable Engine, and what is needed to be sure it is installed.  You should be able to find some Help on this by looking up Shared Variable and/or Shared Variable Engine.

Install Network Variable Engine or at least Variable client support if you want to host the variables on the host computer.

@Bob_Schor, the address is my local IP address. I'm trying to deploy it locally for testing. Actually the interesting thing is that when I want to create a new process in the NI Distributed System Manager, I get the same error.

@JonasM, that link is regarding an RT target, my problem is with a normal Windows 7 machine.

 

Last week I performed a repair of all my NI software. Under the Configuration Panel / Programs and Features / National Instruments Software, I selected everything and selected Repair. It took a full day to do it, but in the end it didn't solve it ...

Interestingly the Variable Engine seems to be installed in Windows and the service is running:

You tried a repair, that sometimes works but sometimes a fully uninstall and reinstall is needed. Did you try to repair only the file suggested in below KB?

As you see the same error in distributed system manager the fastest solution would probably be to uninstall LV and drivers and just reinstall them. If the above KB doesn't work.

Reinstalling that specific component by that installer did the trick. Thanks for the tip!
