failed to save for autorecovery

[Mellobuck]

Good Morning Jeff,

Do you think you could send me an email to le tme know where to send the code? We have in NDA in place with NI, so you can check it out to your heart's content, but I can't post it to the forum. 🙂

Thanks,

Tim

Sorry for the delay in response.  I would recommend zipping up your project and uploading it to ftp.ni.com/incoming.  Only people internally at NI have access to download from that location.  Hope that works for you, please let me know what the filename is once you've uploaded it, thanks!

Jeff,

Look for "SourceCode-2008_0702c-TDN.zip", the project is ExplosionPropogation.lvproj. You should see the copy in there as well.

Hi,

This happens to me too. Just once a session when I run a vi from the project.

Both on projects created with earlier versions and ones created with 8.5.1.

Running CRIO so FPGA and RT.

I'm not particularly worried about it, but would be good to  find out why.

This is a somewhat annoying but generally harmless bug associated with LabVIEW attempting to autosave certain projects containing variables.  This was reported to R&D (# 115766) for further investigation.

Thanks Jeff! That's a 5-star answer if I ever heard one.

Geez, I didn't even end up using that shared variable library...it's an artifact from previous versions of some of the VIs

Thanks for the info and follow-up Jeff

This error is occurring with me also. I have a project file that worked OK in LV 8.5 but faults in 8.6.

I tried the copying with a new name fix but this did not work.  Annoying.

cheers

Hi, Frank,

Try to open .lvproj file in any text editor and look for "variables" or something like that (don't remember exact entries for that). Delete it if present (save backup copy of your .lvproj file before).

Or post your lvproj file here if it possible. 

Andrey.

FRG - please post your project file here if possible (preferably saved in 8.5 still).  I think only the LVPROJ file would be necessary.  I believed this issue to only be in 8.5.1 and resolved in 8.6, but if you're seeing this in 8.6 as well, I'd like to take a closer look.
