VIPM 2012, cannot find or install Actor Framwork


Sd.Kfz.10

Recommended Posts

I'm trying to install the Actor Framework (https://decibel.ni.com/content/groups/actor-framework-2011?view=overview), 2011 version, but I find no traces of it in VIPM 2012.

I downloaded the Actor Framework manually (https://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-23396) and tried "Open Package File(s) and pointed to the spec file.

I then got the message: "This package is not compatible with your operation system or any LabVIEW system installed on you computer".

Any idea what could be wrong?

Have you tried saving the VIP file to your desktop and double-clicking on it?

 

Also in the original post you mention a spec file. What's a spec file?

 

Now I understand what's wrong!

When I clicked on the link to the vip-file here https://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-23396, my computer saved it as a zip-file.

Then I unpacked the zip file and it contained two folders, a bmp-file and a file named "spec". The VI Package Manager could of course not handle that.

 

So now I changed the .zip extension on the downladed file to .vip and the install via VIPM works as it should!
