HIMSA enforces validation for legacy Noah data formats. This means that Noah will check all data being saved to the Noah database to ensure it is following the known data standard format that makes it possible for all HIMSA Member Company modules to read and understand publicly formatted data.
If you are using Noah 4.117 and later and you see a validation error like the one below, please refer to the following solutions.
Solution 1: Microsoft Visual C++ 2015-2022 may not be installed
Noah 4.117.X requires that you have the Microsoft Visual C++ 2015-2022 Redistributable (x86) package installed on your PC in order for the data validation to be successful.
In most installations, this package will be installed for you by your fitting software. You can verify if it is installed in the Task Manager as follows:
- Click the [CTRL] [ALT] and [DELETE] keys simultaneously and then choose Task Manager from the list.
- The Task Manager window provides a list of open background processes in alphabetical order. When you scroll down the list, you should find the Microsoft Visual C++ processes in this list:
- If the Visual C++ process is missing, you will need to install the Microsoft Visual C++ 2015-2022 Redistributable (x86) from the Microsoft support site. Click on the following link to download and then follow the instructions: (https://aka.ms/vc14/vc_redist.x86.exe).
NOTE: If you are running Noah in a network configuration, make sure to installed it on both the Noah client and Noah server machines.
Solution 2: Your schema files may be missing or broken
1. In Windows, navigate to C:\ProgramData\HIMSA\Noah\Schemas\Actions
2. Verify that the files shown in the image below are present
3. If the files are not present, download and run the Noah Data Standard Update Utility (schemas.exe) using the instructions found here.
If neither of these solutions correct the issue and you are still having validation errors, contact the HIMSA Member company whose measurement module is saving the data for more information.
