Problem when generating Excel Report with NIST

Hi,

I recently downloaded the community version of PARADISe from Kromath because I was experiencing issues with the Excel report. However, with this new version a new error message pops up after I try to generate the Excel report, as:

"PARADISe has encountered an error due to:

Error using fprintf

Invalid file identifier. Use fopen to generate a valid file identifier"

And when I look at the error message in the logbook of the program it reads:

"Error in ExportResults.databaseLookUp (line124)

Error in ExportResults.exportResultsToExcel (line 81)

Error in paradiseData/exportPeakTable (line2725)

Error in paradise/Analysis_Callback (line1994)

Error in

Appdesigner.internal.servise.AppManagementService/executeCallback (line 172)

Error in

Matlab.apps.AppsBase>@(source,event)executeCallback(ams,app,callback,requiresEventData,event) (line 62)

Is this a common error, and do you have any suggestions on how to resolve this type of error?

Dear Aryasai, It is not immediately clear what causes this error, have you looked at the PARADISe diary? either the file or in the logbook window? I suggest you ensure you have read and write access to the output directory. We sometime file access errors causing a failure. One workaround might be to run PARADISe with administrative access, then access issues should not occur.

Best, The Kromath Team Jesper

I've made sure that I have admin access but it is giving me the same error with the same error messages in the logbook too. Could it be how its pulling data from the NIST database? Because when I look the report, under compound name it says unknown.

In the logbook or diary, does it say what file the program is trying to access? By default, PARADISe tries to use NIST MSSEARCH located at C:/NIST11/MSSEARCH/ . If this is not the location of your NIST MSSEARCH, you can update it in the Settings tab. Note, that the specified folder must contain the nistms.exe file.
