build exe is working but the installed program is not

Solved!
Go to solution

I have updated a program.

Initial data is entered into a window which disappears and a second window (the main program) opens. 

When I build the program the .exe works exactly as expected.

When I create the installer the initial data window opens and closes as expected but the second window does not open.

The only attached hardware is a usb device (our hardware)

Any suggestions on what settings in the install build (or elsewhere) I may have goofed up?

Did you get an error?  Are you even looking for an error in your code?

 

My crystal ball says you need to include the DAQmx driver in the installer and make sure you have the right configuration in MAX to match what is in your development computer.

I have the error cluster wired.

It does not seem to be throwing an error but I can check further. 

The program is running but after it closes the first window it does not open the second. The .exe file works fine. But the installer version is not.

I thought maybe there was a switch not set properly in the installer build

There was a file not included in the Install build
