Issue Details

I want to create alias name for my .dbc file using NI-XNET Database Editor but I get error below:
NI-XNET: (Hex 0xBFF63001) An internal error occurred in the NI-XNET driver.
Solution: Contact National Instruments and provide the log files found in %LOCALAPPDATA%\National Instruments\NI-XNET\log. Note that this location might be hidden on your computer. For LabVIEW RT systems, log files are located in /ni-rt/nixnet/log or /var/lib/ni-xnet/log.

Solution

A possible reason for this error occur is encoding issue on the database file. Try the steps below:
1. Open the file in Notepad. You will see that the current encoding is ANSI in the bottom-right of the screen.
rtaImage.jfif

2. Select File >> Save As, change the text encoding to UTF-8 and save the file.
rtaImage (2).jfif

3. Select File >> Save As, change the text encoding back to ANSI and save the file.
