Issues with Windows 10 Ent and AdvancedHMI programs
« on: May 23, 2019, 09:46:52 AM »
We are in the process of upgrading from windows 7 to windows 10 Ent and I'm having trouble getting the AdvancedHMI programs to run on these new windows 10 machines. I have the source files saved on our file server so all we have to do is give users a shortcut to the .exe file and it worked on windows 7.

On windows 10 this doesn't work anymore and the only way I've found to get it to work is to copy the entire debug folder to the windows 10 machine which is a problem because if i need to update the project ill need to go around to every ones PC and copy the new debug folder to their PC's.

Is there anyway around copying the entire debug folder over to the users PC to get it to work with windows 10?

I have never ran something from a network drive, but it sounds to me like a change in permissions. Do the files have execute permission? Did you try to Run As Administrator?

What happens when you try to run it? Do you get any errors?

I opened the security up to everyone with full control on our file server so i don't think its permissions. I also tried to run as administrator and it does nothing. When i click the shortcut nothing happens at all on screen, the only way i know its erroring is if i look at the event logs and it has a couple of errors each time i try to open it. I also changed the .net framework settings in the project a couple of times to see if maybe that would help but i didn't notice any change. I attached the errors below.

First Error:

Are you using a mapped drive or the full path name?

The error refers to System.Net.Sockets.TcpListener . Does your application have any code other than the drivers? All of the drivers are clients, therefore should not use a Listener.

The only thing in AdvancedHMI that uses the TCPListener is the SimpleWebServer. Do you have one of those in your application?

Do a search on the Entire Application for "TCPServer"

Here's the code behind the screen and a screenshot of it. This one is a pretty simple application to convert dates for QA.

Code:
Public Class DateCalc

    'On screen startup set the initial value of the dropdown box.
    Private Sub DateCalc_Load(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
        ShelfLife.SelectedIndex = 1 'Select the first value in dropdown box on screen startup.
    End Sub


    Private Sub BtnShelfLife_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles BtnShelfLife.Click
        Dim ProductDate As Date = ProdDate.Value
        Dim ShfLife As Int16 = ShelfLife.Text

        'Format Production date as Julian date.
        Julian.Text = ProdDate.Value.DayOfYear

        'UseBy Date = ProductDate + ShfLife, Converted to MMM DD YYYY format.
        UseByDate.Text = String.Format("{0:MMM dd yyyy}", ProductDate.AddDays(ShfLife).Date)



    End Sub

End Class

This doesn't look like an AdvancedHMI application. Is that the only form in the application? If so, I would create a blank VB WinForms application and import that form into it.

I built it in AdvancedHMIv35 but ill try what your talking about. I'm not a Vb programmer so bear with me. I attached another screenshot showing the header and version. There are two other forms one is MainForm and the other is Page2.

Since you are not using any of the AdvancedHMI drivers or controls it is better not to base the application on AdvancedHMI.

- File->New->Project
- Select Windows Forms App for Visual Basic
- Give it a name and click Next
- Once the applications is created, in Solution Explorer right click the project and select Add->Existing Item
- Browse to and select the DateCalc.vb file in the other project
- You should now be able to run your application

I also have another program that pulls data from SQL and AB PLC's that isn't working as well. The date calclator program is small and easy to dig into that's why i was using it as a guinea pig. I'll try what you're explaining though and see if it fixes the problem.

It has to be a windows 10 and shared files issue. I did what you said and and saved it to our file server and i was able to open it from my windows 7 machine and it worked right but once i tried to open it from the windows 10 machine it gave me a network error.
