Hi Jaun, To fix this, can you try running this exe as Administrator (it should ask you to run as Administrator when you double click it): "C:\Program Files (x86)\JKI\VI Package Manager\support\VIPM Update Registry.exe" Please let me know if that helps. -Jim

Hi Sam. I'm sorry for the trouble. This is really a pain... Can you try using this copy of the "VI Package Manager Runtime Engine" installer? >> vipm-2020.3.2540-windows-prerequisites.zip << This is a copy of the actual temp folder (containing the VIPM runtime engine) extracted during the VIPM 2020.3.2540 installation. C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Roaming\JKI\VI Package Manager 2020.3\prerequisites If that doesn't work, we could try the one from the 2020.3.2532 installer.

That’s great Tyler. I’m glad it worked for you and sorry for the trouble/delays. It’s been a bit bananas as we all transition back into office work.

I’m sorry the delay is impacting your CI pipeline. To remedy this you can immediately install the latest VIPM 2021 public beta. The next build of Dragon (coming shortly) will work with the VIPM 2021 public beta. https://forums.vipm.io/topic/3784-vipm-2021-beta-download-and-getting-started/

Thanks for reporting this. We will provide a new version shortly.

That's great! If you're up for a little challenge, you could made the change to the source code on GitHub as a Pull Request. https://github.com/JKISoftware/JKI-Simple-Localization This would help ensure that future releases are compatible with your local modifications.

That's a great idea -- I don't think it's currently a supported feature. It's definitely possible and I would probably do this (in the code) by adding a key for the additional axis labels: yAxisLabel (maybe also allow yAxisLabel.0 and/or some kind of backward compatibility) yAxisLabel.1 yAxisLabel.2 The code is open source and you could take a look at how to do this. -Jim

Hi @Sahithi I think that, because of the way LabVIEW works, you will need to rebuild the package altogether.

One more thing... Be sure to set up Basic Auth (username/password) protection (or limit access via VPN as you mentioned) if you’re going to let other people know your repository URL.

Hi Joerg, Glad you figured this out. Yes, the protocol (https://) prefix needs to be included. Also, I’m not sure if it’s related, but there’s one extra thing that might be relevant: For HTTPS support in VIPM 2020.x be sure to set the network options in VIPM to “Use System Proxy Settings (Windows Only)”. The “No Proxy (Direct Connection)” setting doesn’t support HTTPS, yet... In VIPM 2021 (now in beta) we’ve added HTTPS support in the default (No Proxy / Direct Connection) mode. -Jim

This should be fixed in build 2746 -- I just tried to build the LabVIEW-Composition library and it seems to work. You can get this latest build via check for updates in VIPM or here: resources.jki.net/en/vipm-2021-beta-download

OK, we've found and hopefully resolved the issue. The fix will be in the next nightly beta build.

Thanks for posting these details. We're able to reproduce the issue our end -- we'll will dig into it and report back here once we learn more.

Hi Antoine, i’m so glad to hear you found the fix to this problem. I suspect the problem happened as a result of a botched update of LabVIEW by NIPM. thank you for posting all of your details here. We will create a VIPM knowledge base entry and link to the NI knowledge base entry, in case anyone else runs into this. thanks!

Hi Antoine, I don't see an f4 patch available for download (e.g. on the LabVIEW Download Page). Can you point me to this update?

Sorry for the delay -- I wasn't getting email notifications of new posts to this forum 🤦‍♂️ I'll look into this right away. Thanks for your patience.

This setting marks that the package can only be installed into the global LabVIEW environment and not a virtual environment. If you want to know more, please sign up for the Dragon beta.

Oh, no! I'll see if I can get to the bottom of this. Sorry for the delay -- I wasn't getting email notifications of new posts to this forum 🤦‍♂️

Hi There. Unfortunately, there's no `force` option when installing packages that would allow overriding the LabVIEW version compatibility. Which package are you trying to install?

Hello Everyone, We recently made the VIPM 2021 public beta available. This is important, since the LabVIEW 2021 public beta is now available and the community will need to use VIPM 2021 to install packages into LabVIEW 2021. It's important for Dragon Beta users to know that installing VIPM 2021 beta will remove Dragon from the system. The reason for this is that the Dragon Beta is currently bundled with a special build of VIPM 2021 + Dragon. So, if you have Dragon installed, do not install the VIPM 2021 public beta, if you wish to keep testing Dragon. Note, we're working on a separate Dragon installer that's compatible with VIPM 2021 public beta, but it's not ready yet. Thanks for staying tuned.

Hi Ivan, This should be fixed in VIPM 2021 beta. -Jim

Thanks! @LogMAN! We've fixed that typo
