Hello,

Is this is coming from one of the MyriadRF GUI’s? If yes, which one is that?

Hi:
I ran into this problem after installing “ASR-Workbench” located at :
http://www.loctronix.com/support/AsrWorkbench/

I am not sure if this is a MyriadRF GUI. I am new to this environment (actually started working on it yesterday). Please let me know if you need any more information.

Hi:
We discovered this issue yesterday as well. We won’t have a fix out until later this week. However there is an easy work-around. Basically what is is going on is that the permissions of on the program data directory was not set correctly during installation.

To fix the problem do the following:

  1. Log into the account you used to install ASR Workbench or an administrative account.

  2. Open a file explorer and go to the folder C:\ProgramData\Loctronix\ASR Workbench

  3. Right-click on the directory and select properties. Go to the Security tab Select Users group and edit the permissions by adding a ‘write’ permission. This should apply to all directories and files contained within the folder.

The program should run after that.

I have set the permission for users on the folder C:\Program Files\Loctronix\ASR Workbench to write, but I still get the error message:

System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path ‘C:\ProgramData\Loctronix\ASR Workbench\1.0.0.0\AppSettings.propfile’ is denied.

Is there something else I am missing ? Please let me know.

Hi: Reviewing the expection log I note that you need to set the permissions on C:\ProgramData\Loctronix\ASR Workbench not C:\ProgramFiles\Loctronix… If you do not see this directory select show hidden files and folders in “Tools>options>folder options” configuration.

#7

Just to be sure, I uninstalled and re-installed the software. Then I went to the
C:\Program Files\Loctronix\ASR Workbench folder and changed the folders properties to write. I made sure I can see the hidden files (although I have been able to see this folder) I am still getting the error:

Please make sure you are changing the permissions in C:\ProgramData… not C:\Program Files. C:\Program Files does not contain the files that are having the permission problems. It is this directory

C:\ProgramData\Loctronix\ASR Workbench

Michael:

The software is up and running. Thank you for your patience.
I am able to run the demo and observe the fft.

I am trying to collect data on the GPS antenna provided on the hard ware. (I can also connect a external antenna).
