I am doing a project with SOMAC driver. When i run the runtime, it says "Cannot start application 'SOMAC. EXE'.... " error. Does anyone have any information on the solution to this?

Never heard of SOMAC driver , can you send screenshots of any logs or any configuration?
Hi, looks like it’s trying to open an application, you will find details in Windowmaker-> Application scripts. You will see the script line to open this and the path. Search for the file if you have copied from another computer or delete the script line
In the screenshot that you sent of OI config look at Device groups and see if Topic1 is configured. Also when it asks for the pop up , say No . You have an issue with the access name configuration which is not configured correctly on your OI configuration. Once you fix that this error will disappear
Driver does not open automatically. When I run it manually from here, I don't get such an error again.
Either the pa Th is not correct or it doesn’t have the permission to start. You can see it in Services if automatic start is allowed for this.
I solved the problem by sending this application to the startup
The reason you did get this warning was as you have figured out that the driver was not running.
This is a built in feature in InTouch that any defined local application added as an Access Name will be checked for availability upon startup.
This behavior is to ensure that a driver you are dependent on for runtime data is running and this feature is enabled by default,
"Local Server" means that if the driver is defined to be accessed on a remote machine, then it will not be able to detect or start a driver.
If you want the possibility to have InTouch to start the driver upon the Yes option, then the driver .exe location has to be added to the Path system environment variable. Adding a folder to your path environment variable allows it to be started by calling the .exe without the full location.
As an example you can start notepad.exe run, without giving the full path to the exe.
But all this is much better managed by running the driver as a service, or as you resolved it ensure that it is running on login by placing it on the startup folder.
If you want to try to run it as a service, ensure that it is running under the startup option (Autostart after reboot) / "aka. Service".
