When doing Cross Reference - log viewer shows error message One or more errors occurred

This is on a IntouchViewapp created from IDE SP2023R2.

There were existing Intouch tags which were used in the screens which were replaced with IDE objects.

So I was trying to delete the tags in the Tagname Dictionary to have it cleaned up.

But some of the tags are unable to delete and the Cross Reference tool still shows the old Intouch tags even though they are replaced by the Galaxy tags in the screen.

The Log Viewer shows an error message for the Cross Reference component - One or more errors occurred.

I did notice few messages in the logger saying "Perhaps the DDE.cfg and Tagname.x are not synchronized properly".

So I added a new memory discrete test tag - saved the app and deployed for the changes to take effect. Since then, that message did not come.

When cross reference is loaded, the error message comes up.

Any suggestions on how to resolve this issue?

  • At this point its hard to say what could be the reason for your issues, as Rainer states perhaps you are dealing with some corruption of your application.

    DDE.cfg contains a list of your access names and Tagname.x is your tag database.

    If you can please reach out to your local techsupport and they might be able to assist you, I have not personally seen that error before.

    In parallel you could try and "Rebuild" your application, but as stated in other posts, the available information might feel a little bit out-of-date, depending on your version. I believe the available guide does not mention that you need to export your symbols as mentioned in the managed app guide (if your application is stand-alone) and import them once the new application is created.

    also, if you are in the progress of converting legacy graphics and link them to objects, note that the conversion saves a backup version of the converted window, as _bak, just want to make sure it is not these windows where your cross reference is locating the tags. this would not explain the error message you get though.

    Without a copy of your application I would have some challenges in providing better assistance, but techsupport would be able to assist and help you forward.
