Waiting to connect to OTA command server

Technical Java
1

I’ve searched CD and tried all the things on the other post but we are still getting “waiting to connect to OTA command server” from NetBeans. Here is what we have know and tried:

  1. can ping camera, 2CAN, cRio fine
  2. reboot the cRio - download again - same issue
  3. switched lan cable to wireless (set to 10.33.10.5 / 255.255.255.0) - same issue
  4. reflashed the cRio (already had v43, did it again). Downloaded, rebooted cRio - same issue
  5. removed 2CAN from network - ping fine - download - same issue
  6. connected lan directly to cRio - same issue
  7. disable ipv6 - same issue
  8. reboot computer - same issue
  9. verified windows firewall is off - yes

Any other ideas?

That sounds pretty thorough :-). Please post the complete output from Netbeans when downloading.

Yeah we’ve had problems with Netbeans before where it would stop producing output, but the code was still running. I can’t really remember, but it might have been right at the point you’re describing. It might be just a problem with Netbeans and the code is fine. Post the output so we can see.
FYI our solution to that problem: Eclipse!

Another thing I left off is that I can ftp directly to the cRio fine. Below is the netbeans output.

Finally got it work. Previously when I reflashed the cRio I didn’t check the format box. I did it again with the format box checked and it worked (after the reboot issue).

Thanks for your responses!

Glad you fixed it, because that wasn’t the issue I had in mind.

I am having the same issue with out new cRIO ii trying to download code from netbeans. I have tried everything that you guys have. Exact same error except with team 2972 credentials. Any ideas?

Try rebooting the cRIO multiple times, it always seems like you have to reboot it once after imaging it, and a second time after trying to send code for the first time. At least from personal experience.

Yep, I’ve noticed that for the past four years it’s been like that. Every time I reimage the cRIO and deploy code, it’ll stick on that and I have to manually reboot.
