Issue Details

When I try to load a VI in Teststand using the LabVIEW Runtime Engine, I get the following error:

Solution

To be able to successfully load a VI with the LabVIEW Runtime Engie in Teststand, the VI and all its dependencies need to be available in the right version. Especially after upgrading to a new LabVIEW version, old projects might not be completely upgraded. There are 2 options to solve this issue.

1. (Preferred) Source Distribution of the VIs in question.

2. Mass compile the whole directory of the VIs in question.
