Problems deploying code

Thank you all for your help,

Thanks for posting what you did to solve the problem! A question, though - was this the same computer with which you wrote and downloaded LabView code? I'm wondering if LV uses a different mechanism than FTP to deploy code to the cRio.

I'm not sure exactly how LabVIEW deploys code onto the robot, but I have read somewhere that some teams have had success finding the raw executable and then performing an FTP transfer. I don't exactly remember where the thread is unfortunately.

Also, the computer that I am using is the exact same computer that I wrote and downloaded LabVIEW code with.

OK, that tells us that LV and WindRiver use different mechanisms to download/deploy the code to the cRIO - handy to know for troubleshooting.
