My top toolbar in UiPath Studio (Community) only displays the run action as 'debug' and is telling me there are errors in my sequence

[clegaspi (Chris)]

I am currently on the ‘Build-a-Bot’ portion of the UiPath Academy training and no matter what I do the ‘Run’ action on the top toolbar always shows ‘Debug’ even after uninstalling and installing the software.

Additionally, UiPath Studio says theres an error/validation warning involving the Assign activity.

The exclamation point icon explains: 'Complier error(s) encountered processing expression “Name”. ‘Name’ is not declared. File I/O functionality is available in the ‘Microsoft.VisualBasic’ namespace.

Any help/advise?

First we need to identify first the problem and fix it. If we fix the error then next is the tab issue. @clegaspi

Welcome @clegaspi,

Please post picture of your variable pane and check if you have declared variable ‘Name’ with datatype as String and check it’s scope as well.

Cheers

Thank you for the responses- @kkasegaonkar declaring the variable ‘Name’ and the datatype 'string in the variable pane did the trick! The error is now gone.

I am still curious about the ‘debug’ button on the toolbar. After tweaking around with it I can still technically access ‘run’ using the bottom arrow menu of the ‘debug’ button.

Is my UiPath ‘run’ button supposed to look like that? @pattyricarte

@clegaspi Actually don’t know the behavior of the toolbar. That’s why I ask you to fix first the error then we will investigate furthermore for the toolbars. By the way, the error was fixed and cheers

Happy learning

@clegaspi, Yes, It’s supposed to look like that. By default it will run with debugging. You can also run file without debugging.

Cheers

Hello and welcome!

I have the same issue but if you mouse over the Debug button you’ll see the following

Just click the one you want. Hopefully this helps. I don’t have a fix for the other problem
