[RESOLVED - Error: Opening files on download]

Hi, I want to share the problems and solutions I had for other people to benefit from it. So the problem is solved.

 

Problem: When building and downloading an empty

Powerbrick Solution Template I get the Message:

 

error : The compiler was not able to generate an executable file. Please open the following error log file for more information

 

Output:

However when I used an sftp-file transfer software to manually copy the files onto the PowerBrickLV

it works and I can run the Motion Program. As soon as I do a Factory Reset it is of course gone.

 

 

 

 

When I try to upload motion programs it gives me the information:

Error message: Project Load Error

There were errors during the download process and the download process has stopped.

Solution: My Project-Folder was automatically created on a network drive.

On other systems this may not be a problem, but in my case it was.

The support found out that it was caused by my pc, not allowing for the long path names

arising from the location of the project on the network drive.

Many thanks to the Support for helping me out!

 

Easy workaround: Save your Project on your local disk.

 

Fixing it: This are the Instructions given by the support. I wasn't able to specify

a certain drive, so I had to set the value to "0" for all drives.

********************************************************

********************************************************

1) As Administrator (right click on CMD icon, “ Run as Administrator” ), you have to query the short name path status for that drive

 

C:\WINDOWS\system32>fsutil 8dot3name query d:

 

 

 

You will probably see the following:

 

 

 

The volume state is: 1 (8dot3 name creation is disabled).

 

The registry state is: 2 (Per volume setting - the default).

 

 

 

Based on the above two settings, 8dot3 name creation is disabled on d:

 

2) In this case you have to enable the short path with the following command:

 

C:\WINDOWS\system32>fsutil 8dot3name set d: 0

 

Successfully enabled 8dot3name generation on d:

 

 

 

C:\WINDOWS\system32>fsutil 8dot3name query d:

 

The volume state is: 0 (8dot3 name creation is enabled).

 

The registry state is: 2 (Per volume setting - the default).

 

 

 

Based on the above two settings, 8dot3 name creation is enabled on d:

 

Nota bene: Maybe you have to zip all the projects files, remove or move the original files and unzip the files to let windows to regenerate the short name path, but first see if everything works without this additional step.

 

Important: remember to map the folder with the projects and do not browse the network server from the file selector. For certain reasons, if you load the solution from the network servers instead from a mapped share drive, you will get a garbled solution explorer, with several folder entry repeated x times.

That both worked fine and the empty Template, as well as the Motion Program gave me the output I wished for:

[RESOLVED - Unspecified AmpFault]

Hi I wanted to share my Problems and Solutions to make them

findable and help other people to find solutions to their Problems.

 

I am currently doing my obligatory internship as

at a research facility in Germany. Here I have been given the Task to

take make a PowerBrickLV work.

I used a Brushless Motor without any Limit switches, just for getting to

know the Powerbrick.

 

Problem: AmpFault when trying to run the tests and in the system setup

menu.

 

Source: Sys.pAbortAll, a global safety switch is set true at default.

 

Solution: Type Sys.pAbortAll = 0 into Terminal.

 

Unfortunately, when I started reading the manuals my supervisors afvised

me to watch the online tutorials instead, as it would take forever to

read the manual. In the Tutorials is no mentioning of this global fault switch.
