SmartDashboard&NetworkTables aren't working properly

[ykarkason]

The SmartDashboard and NetworkTables are not working properly, they only work on the first reboot of the cRIO - They work fine when the robot is turned on, but if I deploy code to it(I'm using Java) and it reboots they stop working.

Did anybody have this issue before?

Thanks

The robot provides the NetworkTables server. If you reboot it, you might have to also restart the Dashboard program in order for it to connect properly.

But that wasn't the behavior up until now(or at least a week ago).
It used to auto-connect to the robot when one was available.

Hi -

I just tried this (including running the TableViewer application) ... using Java and Eclipse as the IDE.

I had the robot running, and it was all updating (both SmartDashboard as well as TableViewer). I downloaded from Eclipse, which rebooted the cRIO. Both the SmartDashboard and TableViewer eventually went disconnected and stopped updating, until the reboot finished, and then they both automatically connected and started updating again. I sort of thought the sequence numbers would have restarted, but they didn't ... other than that it worked as it has all along.

Sorry ...

OK, thanks, that must mean that something is wrong in my system...
I'll try formating the cRIO and i'll reinstall Netbeans and the plugins and'll write here if that worked...

Just to let you guys know, after I re-formated the cRIO the SmartDashboard & the NetworkTables worked as they used to .
