I met the following problem: when I was trying to deploy shared var library, Labview dropped down before deploying starts. Variable manager shows nothing under Local System (icon for Local Syatem became the cross). Attempts to start new process in Local System return error - cannot connect to target: \\localhost. How to fix it? Is it possible to reinstall Shared Variable Engine separately?
Thanks for contacting National Instruments. I'm glad you appear to have solved your problem. Ensuring that the Configuration Manager is started is always a good troubleshooting step. It looks like you might have already seen this, but I am including a link that you will be able to look at in case you have any more problems that may have something to do with the Database Connection Error in MAX. Thanks!
