build installer error, help

Hi all,

 

There's a problem need your help.

 

I have a LV8.5 PDS. And I create a exe, when I want to create a installer, I cannot found any information is "additional installer". When I try to build it, error reports as below.
error information:
CDK_Build_Invoke.vi.ProxyCaller >> CDK_Build_Invoke.vi >> CDK_Engine_Main.vi >> CDK_Engine_PreBuild.vi >> CDK_Validate_DistParts.vi >> CDK_DistParts_GetInstalledProducts.vi >> NI_MDF.lvlib:MDFProdInfoList_Open.vi

 

Before I reinstall my notebook, it worked.

 

Thanks ahead.

The build specification for your installer may have been corrupted. Try the following to correct this:

  1. Open up your project in the Project Explorer window and expand the Build Specifications tree.
  2. Right-click all of the applications (executables) build specifications that are included in your installer and select Build to force each one to rebuild.
  3. If all the executables build successfully, next right-click your installer's build specification and select Properties to change its configuration.
  4. In the Category pane on the left, navigate to the Source Files category.
  5. Find your executable (.exe) files on the right side and click it to select it. Press the Delete key or click the red X at the bottom of the window to remove the executable and its associated files from the build.
  6. Re-add the executable and its files to the same folder by selecting the executable in the Project View pane and the proper folder in the Destination View pane (on Windows systems, this is typically ProgramFilesFolder\[your product name]), and clicking the blue arrow button in the middle of the window.
  7. Repeat steps 5 and 6 for any other executables you have in your installer, as well as for any other files which show up in the ProgramFilesFolder path.

Your installer should now build successfully. If that does not work, try making a new installer build specification which has all of the same settings as the build specification which does not work. If the new installer builds properly, you can keep it and delete the old, corrupted specification.
