Error during application build with 8.5

[ramtekpr]

Error 1 occurred at Create Folder in Create Directory Recursive.vi->AB_Engine_Copy_Error_Files.vi->AB_Application.lvclass:Copy_Error_Files.vi->AB_Application.lvclass:Copy_Files.vi->AB_Build.lvclass:Build.vi->

Possible reason(s):

LabVIEW:  An input parameter is invalid. For example if the input is a path, the path might contain a character not allowed by the OS such as ? or @.

NI-488:  Command requires GPIB Controller to be Controller-In-Charge.

Hi PR,

I have a few questions in order to help you resolve this issue.  Does this error occur when you build an application?  If so, does it occur when building different applications, or just one in particular?  What version of LabVIEW are you using, and what operating system are you running?  Are you using any toolkits or addons? Please provide details.  Also, if you have a sample of your code that reproduces this issue, please include it as an attachement if possible.  Thanks!

Hi Meghan,

Thanks for the reply. I seem to have found the issue. Its a bug with 8.5. I am using VI server and have a static VI reference to the opened VI. I am using this to close the front panel.

This causes an error during the build process.

However, if I open a reference to the loaded VI and then use this reference to close the front panel, I do not get this build error.

Now I seem to have another issue. I am using 8.5 on windows XP. Find the acttached code and the EXE file. I am using the function "get current VI path" to access a file after stripping down to the base path. This seems to work when I run my code as is, how ever, when I build an EXE, the strip path function does not seem to work.

Your inputs are highly appreciated.

Thanks

Hi PR,

I am assuming that you resolved the second issue on your own.  If that's the case, could you post your resolution for us?  Thanks!

Also, could you attach your code which was throwing the original error when building an application?  If this is a bug, I would like to test it on my machine so that I can submit it to R&D.  I tried to recreate your setup but I could not produce the error.  Thanks again!

Hi Meghan,

The issue has been posted earlier and I believe NI R&D is aware of this...see this .

Also, the solution to my second issue was also posted..see this

Thanks for your responses.
