AlarmScreen Errors from ExampleProject on Server

Ignition
1

I want to use the AlarmScreen from the ExampleProject and it appeared fine on my laptop (note I have not altered it from the ExProj) but when I imported my project to my server it started generating errors. I get an Error executing expression binding on AlarmScreen.Root Container.Alarms.AlarmTable.data, how do I resolve this error?

Here are the details from the first of many:

The important part of that stacktrace is this:Caused by: Traceback (innermost last): File "<expression:runScript>", line 1, in ? File "<module:alert>", line 7, in alertHistory com.inductiveautomation.ignition.client.gateway_interface.GatewayException: Gateway Error 500: Alert storage profile "Alert" does not exist.Your storage profile is apparently not named ‘Alert’, so you just need to change it to that, or change the binding to go to your storage profile.

I have two(alert & Alert) in my storage now and still get this error!

I think you have a case sensitivity problem. The error says you don’t have a package in the Script Modules called alert when calling app.alert. Maybe you have a capitable A on alert where it should be app.Alert.

Well, that was a newbie mistake! I hate syntax errors but I know now. I guess because I’m new then that is to be expected.

Sorry that I wasted your time and mine over a syntax error.

No problem. That is what we are here for. :smiley:
