ERROR -32 while creating an installer

[Marlyn]

Hello,

I am trying to create an installer so I can run an executable without the need of someone else using the executable to install the Run-Time Engine. I am using LabVIEW version 2016.

However I get the following error,

CDK_CreateNewWizard_Invoke.vi.ProxyCaller >> CDK_CreateNewWizard_Invoke.vi >> AB_CreateNewWizard_Invoke_CORE.vi >> AB_UI_FRAMEWORK.vi >> AB_UI_Frmwk_Installer.lvclass:Build.vi >> Installer.lvclass:Build_from_Wizard.vi >> IB_MSI.lvclass:Build.vi >> IB_MSI.lvclass:Engine_Build.vi >> NI_MDF.lvlib:MDFDistCopyList_CopyItem.vi

The following errors and warnings were recorded during the build:

Error:
Failed to copy a distribution.
Details:
Copying distribution 'NI General Security Patch Q2 2013 (KB 67L8K7QW)' from: \\dleesd.itg.ti.com\ESD\LABSTATION\NIDS2016DS2\Distributions\GSP\ to: C:\ProgramData\National Instruments\MDF\ProductCache\
Additional details:
Internal system error.
An internal system operation returned the error "The system cannot find the path specified.".
Code:
-32

I have tried creating a project with a simple vi and that does not seem to work either.

Any guidance on this would be much appreciated.

Thank you,

Marlyn

That looks to be a rather strange location to copy the update from.  You may need a local copy of the update rather than a network location.  (Depends on your IT policies)

See this KB [link removed; article no longer available] for guidance on how to upgrade deployed systems

And this utility [link removed; download no longer available]  For installing the patch on deployed systems and your dev enviornment

Thank you for your quick response.

I tried both of those things, and it still does not seem to fix the error.

I am having the same problem. Were you able to find a solution?

I am having a similar problem with building an installer in LabVIEW 14.0f1 (32-bit).

I have tried resetting the database for NI MAX, recompiling the exe (& confirmed it works), confirmed existence of NI-VISA 16.0 16.0.0.30, but my project is stalled.  Any ideas to try?

Anthony,

It may be beneficial to start a new thread for your question since this thread is a couple months old and may be related to the security patch. If you don't get an answer here, I think you will get more visibility on a separate post.

Thank for the suggestion.  I have done created a new post.
