Error -19035 Build Error While Using TestStand Deployment Utility (TSDU)

Issue Details

I'm encountering an error while building a deployment using the TestStand Deployment Utility (TSDU), specifically Error -19035, which indicates that some VIs or project libraries have duplicated names. This issue occurs when using TestStand 2024 in combination with LabVIEW 2024. The error appears to be related to VIs that reference shared .NET classes, where each VI includes an implicit constructor node and I get the following error:

Error Code: -19035

Error Message: The following VIs or project libraries have duplicate names.

You must change the duplicate VI names or add the VIs to the project libraries.

This error is shown in the following dialog box:

Note:  This issue does not occur when using TestStand 2024 with LabVIEW 2021. 

What is the best method to resolve the build issue while using the TestStand Deployment Utility (TSDU) with the combination of TestStand 2024 and LabVIEW 2024?

Solution

The issue had been observed following LabVIEW's migration to .NET 8 and is recognized as a known bug. 

Follow the steps below as a workaround:

1. Manually open all the VIs referred in the error message that contain .NET constructor nodes in your project.
2. Build the TestStand project using the TestStand Deployment Utility (TSDU).
3. Deployment will be successful without any error.
