"profile on -history" error help: "Cannot change the history while logging is enabled."

4 views (last 30 days)
I am using "profile on -history" at the start of my program to try and understand the call sequence in the code better. I then receive the following response:
Error using callstats Cannot change the history while logging is enabled.
Error in profile (line 150) callstats('history', history);
I can't find anything on what "logging is enabled" means. Any ideas how to fix this?

The error message could probably be better. Could you figure it out if the error was: "Error cannot change history while profiler is running" ? Stop the profiler then restart it with history on:
>> profile status %Just to see current profiler state
>> profile off
>> profile status
>> profile -history on % Order does not matter here but this makes more sense.

It says "Cannot change the history while logging is enabled". It doesn't say anything about "while profiler is running".
