RE: BallotStation 4.0.11 end election/Administrator card removal

It turns out that the AccuVote-TS R6 in question was the unit that Wyle filled up the backup directory in order to observe BallotStation voting behaviour as directories run out of space.  Files were deleted from the backup directory, and functioning returned to normal.  Jeff Hintz pointed out that the backup directory size is limited to 6MB - is this true?  Why so small?

This problem is not related to the removing Admin card problem.  This problem occurs when the storage space is full and a new memory card is inserted.

 

This is fixed and will be in BS 4.0.12 and 4.1.2.

The error described below occured with an absentee PCMCIA card.  At a later point in processing, it turns out that the installation of any election media in the machine in question other than the absentee PCMCIA card gives rise to the message:

The following error has been detected

Exception in BallotStation

Failed to create \FFX\AccuVote-TS\BallotStation\CurrentElection

This error message does not appear when the absentee election media is re-installed.

An election is ended, then the election results report is printed.  The Administrator card is removed while the report is printing.  The report stops printing as the message 'Printing Aborted' is displayed.  Click on OK, then the Post-Election Mode window is displayed.

 

Posted in the course of Phase II GEMS 1-17-16/BallotStation 4.0.11 Florida certification.
