Hey All.
SO my FTV V9.0 has been giving me some trouble. Iv noticed it before but lately Iv been "trying" to do a few more projects with it and the problems just keep rolling in.
I upgraded to V10 as per Rockwells advice. The issues seemed to be "better" last week but so far this morning things are not working for me.
I was getting .NET framework errors last week before the upgrade, those have since not returned. Now what I'm still seeing are the following symptoms....
-Upon trying to "test" an application, it will often say "tag database not found" and stop at that point. Not every time, but consistently.
-upon trying to test an application, the computer will hang for extended periods requiring a ctl+alt+del to stop the application.
-after successfully opening a test project and then closing the test project, trying to test again will result in the error message "only one run time application may be open, please close open application before testing another"" this requires a computer restart to remedy.
-after setting up a working parameter file for a display, the parameter file will work until the FTV.ME project is closed. Once the project is reloaded, the parameter directed tags will say ex... :#1.OUTPUTCURRENT IS NO LONGER AVAILABLE", one of these messages for each tag in the display. Manually directing the display to look at the "tag location" in the PLC and not through the parameter file, then directing it back to the parameter file, it will work. I have to do this for each tag in the display.... very annoying!!
-most recently trying to open the software this time, I am welcomed with the message. "
Failed to initialize the service: {3F883B87-2208-11D4-B0E7-001083022E04}"
I'm not sure what to do but I know I need this software to work as intended.
Any thoughts...
Thanks
