VIPM 2019 cannot connect to LabVIEW 2016 on VM

Good morning,

I am having problems connecting LabVIEW 2016.0 and VIPM 2019 on a Windows 10 Enterprise virtual machine.

My host machine with the same setup (OS, permissions etc.) works fine. The host just has a few more versions of LabVIEW installed.

I'm running out of ideas... this is what I have tried so far:

  • I have followed the instructions on this article but nothing changed.
  • I have checked my firewall and VIPM and LabVIEW are both allowed to make TCP connections on any port. (Same settings as on host machine.)
  • Tried using a different port for both VIPM and LabVIEW
  • I debugged it in command line using:
netstat -aon | findstr 3363

  -->Get task reference

tasklist | findstr [task]

I can see that a connection is established between VIPM and LabVIEW on that port (see attached image). But I still get the error message saying 'VIPM could not connect to LabVIEW 2016'.

  • I've increased the timeout.
  • I've run VIPM as administrator
  • I've reverted my VM, reinstalled the software and encountered the same issue

Any ideas what else I could try? Could it be something to do with it being a Hyper-V virtual machine, and behaving like a remote session?

Many thanks,

Leah

Afraid I'm still stuck on the same issue a week later and it is impeding my ability to get work done. Does anyone have any suggestions? Alternatively, has anyone managed to successfully get VIPM running on a Hyper-V virtual machine?

Many thanks,

Leah

Hello JKI,

Problem still persists - have checked my firewall logs and there are no dropped packets on the ports. Must be something to do with it being a virtual machine.

Here's the VIPM error log, if that's of any use for you to troubleshoot. Some sort of generic error 42.

It's very frustrating not being able to debug this myself... Would you care to set up a replication on a Hyper-V virtual machine, and see whether you get the error and if so, why? Hyper-V comes with all windows installs anyway, it wouldn't take you long.

Many thanks,

Leah

Edit: set up the replication on a non-networked VM. It connected fine. Seeing as it is not a firewall issue, could you suggest some further troubleshooting steps please?
