Internal Error 2351 occurs with Installer built with Application Builder 6.1

[Ian R]

When I try to install an application built with version 6.1 of the application builder the installer gives the following error.

Internal Error 2351. LVANLYS.DLL, data.cab

The installer was built on a PC running Windows 2000 Server with Service Pack 4 installed. I was trying to install the application on PC running Windows NT with service pack 6 installed.

If I try to install the application on the Windows 2000 Server I get the following error message

Error 1334. The file 'LVANLYS.DLL' cannot be installed because the file cannot be found in cabinet file 'data.cab'.

Is there anyway to insure that LVANYS.DLL is included in the cabient file?

Ian,

One way to ensure that the lvanlys.dll is included in the the cabinet file is to include the DLL manually.

This can be accomplished through the following steps:

1. With application builder open, select the Installer Settings tab.
2. Click the Files... button to bring up the Installation Destination Settings windows.
3. Click Add File.. and select the lvanyls.dll located in the .\labview 6.1\resource directory.

You should not receive these error messages after building the installer with these files included.

Thanks for the suggestion unfortunately it did not solve the problem; I assume that the application builder must still be using the lvanlys.dll it adds automatically. The source path for the lvanlys.dll automatically included is given as the data directory of the destination directory I have selected (e.g. C:\Sw02415\Software\Smite\Dau\Fastserver\Fastserver1\data) and it is indeed there so the application builder must have copied there.

I also tried recreating the installation from scratch, but still got the same problem.
