LabVIEW 2011 Run When Opened Project Setting Not Working

[ottomatic]

I have a simple project written with LabVIEW 2011.

Run When Opened is checked for my Startup VI.

The problem is...

When I run my executable, it does not run until I click the run button in the toolbar.

What gives?

Could it be that your VI actually runs but immediately completes for some reason.

(maybe there are strage default values in the controls (e.g. TRUE for the stop button) or it cannot find certain files, etc.)

[ottomatic]

Exit LabVIEW is called when the VI is done, so I don't think that is a possibility.

Hi ottomatic, did you try the following steps?

1. Open the build specifications from in the project explorer.
2. Click on the "Source File Settings" under the category window.
3. Select the VI that you want to run when opened in the project file window.
4. Click the "Customize VI Properties" button.
5. check "Run when opened" under the "Execution" section.

If you already did these, you probably had debugging mode enabled, please click off debug mode.

Please let me know if it works.

Source File Settings for my Startup VI

Only options On are

- Window has Title Bar

- Show front panel when called

- Run when opened

All others, including Allow debugging, are NOT checked

I missed the debug settings under the build spec's advanced page.

Wait for debugger on launch.
