Cannot format SD card with Loxone Config: Error 12 #25

Hi, I cannot format the SD card with Loxone Config; the error displayed is: Fehler - 12 beim Formatieren

loxmini_format

I have tried to format the SD card with several card readers w/o success. Then I started to format the SD card with Windows tools, and this worked. Now the card is totally empty.

Can you advise how to fix this?

That is more a question for a Loxone forum, like https://www.loxforum.com. Anti-Virus software or something?

After formatting th SD card with Windows tools, the error message is now: Fehler - 1 beim Formatieren

Can I still use the SD card although is is completely empty now?

sarnau commented 3 years ago

No idea, but if the SD card is not defect, it will be usable. But I am not using Windows.

I would prefer to use Linux OS, but then I must use Wine. Do you know if I can format a SD card with Loxone Config in Wine? Or can you recommend any other way to format the SD card?

I know it's a bit late but I had the same. You need to be Admin when starting Loxone config and you must try it several times sometimes.

-1 means wrong file system format It must be FAT32 but not NTFS.

-6 is for no file system

-2 reason is not known by me but if I have -2 it usually works with 2 or 3 tries.
