Gets error "-17502; System Level Exception" while running the custom Step in NI TestStnad 2010

I have a custom teststand step which works like For loop in TestStand. Previously I was using LV 2009 and NI TestStand 4.2.1 and this step was working fine. Recently I upgraded my system to LV 2010 and TestStand 2010, since that it is not working.

 

When I run the step it gives error "-17502; System Level Exception". I have attached error screenshot.

 

I am using NIFlowControl.dll in this step.

 

Please do the needful.

Hi,

 

Are you using the correct version of NIFlowControl.dll?

Can you post the code?

Is your Shared or User folder empty?

The source code for NIFlowControl.dll ships with TestStand. Did you perhaps

 

1) modify the code and rebuild this dll in teststand 4.2.1, but did not move your changes into the 2010 version and recompile the 2010 version?

 

Or

 

2) Move your 4.2.1 version of this dll to 2010 in which case it might be missing important code that exists only in the 2010 version. It's best to redo your code changes to the 2010 version and recompile that if needed.

 

Also ideally your modified version of NIFlowControl.dll should be located in the teststand public directory rather than the program files directory.
