Does anyone has digital signed a. .rtexe file which build from Labview?

When I built our application used Labview PXI got startup.rtexe file. Now we need to digital sign this file.

I first I tried sign .rtexe, it cannot sign, then our developer team suggested me to rename the file as Startuprt.exe. I tried again. I got below error.

 

SignTool Error: This file format cannot be signed because it is not recognized.

SignTool Error: An error occurred while attempting to sign: Startuprt.exe

SignTool Error: This file format cannot be verified because it is not

        recognized.

You have ended up posting in the LabWindows/CVI board! I suggest you repost this question to the LabVIEW board since it may be related to some item specific to the format of the executables created by LV.



Proud to use LW/CVI from 3.1 on.

What system do you try to run this real-time executable on? None of the NI Real-Time platforms will AFAIK require an executable to be signed in order to run it. And for other systems the rtexe file has about as much meaning as a Word Document to an Image Editor.

Hi Jean,

 

is there a reason you need to create two threads for the very same question?

startup.rtexe need digital sign because development team think the .rtexe is same as .exe file and company security policy request all the .exe file need digital sign.

This is wrong, Windows does NOT execute RTEXE files…
