Error Code -17502 in TestStand NI 2023 Q3

[Dinesh0310]

Hello everyone,

I'm experiencing an issue with TestStand NI 2023 Q3. I frequently encounter an error message with Error Code -17502 and the description "no details available." This leads to instability in my test sequences.

Sometimes, when I click "Retry" in the error window, the program continues after 2 or 3 attempts. However, it also crashes occasionally.

I would appreciate any suggestions or solutions to address this problem.

Thank you!

Hi, 

Error -17502 is an operating system exception being passed back to TestStand, which then reports it to the user. The operation the user performed is throwing error -17502, which can have different causes. Some common causes are:

• Writing to memory which you do not have access to in your code
• Exceeding array bounds in your code
• Dividing by Zero in your code
• Passing the wrong input parameters to DLL function call

Narrow down the step or the set of steps that cause the error and debug the calls to code modules from those steps.

That should help you narrow down the root cause of the error.
