I am trying to install the CuLab (GPU Accelerated Toolkit), version 2.1.1.50, but this does not work.
When I try to install from the VIPM, the package download is stuck in the middle of the process and eventually cancels automatically without even an error message.When I try to open the downloaded package (downloaded from https://download.ni.com/evaluation/labview/lvtn/vipm/packages/ngene_culab_gpu_accelerated_toolkit/ngene_culab_gpu_accelerated_toolkit-2.1.1.50.vip) in the VIPM and install it - VIPM chews the package for a minute or two, then shows a strange message (on the picture below), then throws an error.
I've tried two latest versions of VIPM, tried to run VIPM as an admin user, but to no avail.Does anybody have any ideas?Just in case, my system is Windows 10 x64 Pro, LabVIEW 2023Q3, VIPM 2024.1f1 Free edition.-

Hi @Dmytro
It appears the issue is that the publisher marked the OS Compatibility in a way that prevents it from being installed on Windows 10/11.
Hi Jim,
But I'm able to use Advanced Plotting Toolkit in Windows 10 for years with all VIPM versions, except 2023.

Hi All,
There is a VIPM 20203 release candidate available here:
Some of the Fixes and Improvements:
- VIPM now works with any LabVIEW Runtime greater than or equal to 20.1, to simplify installation process and avoid installing older versions of LabVIEW runtime if a newer version is installed (VIPM previously required exactly version 20.1 of the LV Runtime)
- Fix Issue #25 affecting various user input dialogs (e.g. palette item renaming caused the dialog to get stuck and not close)
- Improved package building in LabVIEW 2017-2019 (some improvements make for packages saved in LV 2020 and greater were back-propagated to work with older LabVIEW versions)
- Speed-up of VIPM startup time for first launch after installation (installer now includes a cache of package info of latest versions of public packages)Please let us know if you run into any issues.
Hello Jim.
Strange, I've posted around a week ago and now post just disappeared...
Nevertheless, I've tested this new version, and while it works in general, there is still the same issue present (when some packages shown as incompatible while in fact the are compatible), as discussed here: https://www.vipm.io/posts/2de25b0c-baeb-4ace-aa7e-8fb53d315afc/
Hope this helps.
Kind regards,
Dmytro

Hi Jim,
The only bug I've found so far is the same problem as in the current 2023 version, where certain packages (in my case Advanced Plotting Toolkit) could not be installed or were marked as incompatible (I have LV2022 installed):
Despite that fact that the package is actually installed (using 2022 version of VIPM) and works flawlessly.
Hope this helps.

Problem solved after clearing the C:\ProgramData\JKI\VIPM\cache folder, thank you. Now peak memory consumption is about 740 MB.

+more reports on that in other places:

Same problem. More people reported here:

Same problem. Tested and confirmed with VIPM 21.0.2750, 21.1.2754, 22.0.2371.
The latest version which works is 20.0.2302, but it does not know about the newest LabVIEW versions.
According to Process Explorer, VIPM process hits ~3.2 GB and crashes (see couple of screenshots below).

Thank you, Alik! Can confirm, I am playing with the CuLab right now.
