Consider experimenting with a new project title.
rdrast suggested considering starting a project with an alternative name. Would you be able to provide further clarification on this? Perhaps creating a project under a new title could be a beneficial solution.
When I attempt to open a new project in RSView Enterprise HMI, I encounter an error related to the file path 'c:\Users\Public\Documents\RSView Enterprise\ME\HMI\Projects\test.mdf'. I am in need of assistance to resolve this issue promptly.
Hey there, it seems like you're trying to create a new project with a database name that's already in use. If you're starting a new project, it would be best to select a fresh, unique name for your database file. However, if you're trying to open an existing project and you're still receiving this error, it could be due to an issue with the file's path location. Make sure that the file actually exists at the specified location in the error message. If it doesn't, relocate the .mdf file to that location or correct the file path if it's wrong. Hope this helps!
Hey there! This often occurs when a project with the same name already exists in the specified location or if there's an issue with the project's configuration files. Try changing the name of your project or its location to something unique, this should resolve the issue. If the problem persists, you might need to check the integrity of your database and/or configuration files. They could be corrupted and need repair or replacement. Hope that helps!
It sounds like your system is trying to create a new database file with the same name as an existing one. To resolve the issue, either give your new database a different name or, if you're trying to work on an existing project, open that project directly instead of creating a new one.
It sounds like the project is trying to create a database that already exists in that location, which typically happens if you've previously attached it or if the project references an existing database. Try checking the folder to see if the .mdf file is indeed there and, if possible, rename or move that file temporarily. You could also try opening the project with a different name or database location to see if that resolves the issue. Hope that helps!
