I Get Error -1084777 When Generating Reports in Calibration Executive

Updated Oct 2, 2024

Issue Details

I can't generate reports in Calibration Executive because I keep getting an error that states the following:
  • "Calibration Executive: Report Gen: Report stylesheets, templates, or schema are not available. Reinstall Calibration Executive to restore these necessary files.
    C:\Users\<username>\Documents\CalibrationExecutive\CustomReports\
    cex_CustomReports_config.ini"
The report generator then closes abruptly.

I am able to calibrate my cards just fine, but the error prevents me from generating reports.

Solution

This error occurs If the path to Custom Report Stylesheet or CustomReports Folder Changes

If the file path for a custom report stylesheet or the CustomReports folder changes (for example, if a user's Documents folder is cleaned up), Calibration Executive displays the error when the report generator is launched.

To solve this error, do one of the following:
  • Copy the content of the CustomReports folder (including the style sheet) to the expected location.
  • Manually edit the cex_Config.ini file at C:\Program Files\National Instruments\Calibration Executive\Config\, and change CustomReportsPath to point to the existing location (if known).
  • Delete the CustomReportsPath line in the cex_Config.ini file to force Calibration Executive to reset to the default location.

Additional Information

If none of the steps above fix the issue, clean-reinstall Calibration Executive.
