Distibution Build Error (Ver 8.5)

Solved!
Go to solution

Hello - I am fairly familiar with Labview Project and the source distribution but this one has me stumped. When I try to build, I get the following error message and can't undersatnd the duplicity or path error. The daqmx.rc is where it is supposed to be and it is not read only. I have built many applications and source distributions with DaqMX as well. Here is the error message. Any takers?

 

Possible Reasons:

Error copying files.

Source: ..\..\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 8.5\resource\objmgr\daqmx.rc

Destination: F:\APPS\National Instruments\LabView Apps\builds\A6_A7\A6_A7 Source Distribution\daqmx.rc

Librarian Path Location.vi

 

Details:

Visit the Request Support page at ni.com/ask to learn more about resolving this problem. Use the following information as a reference:

Error 1 occurred at AB_Destination.lvclass:Copy_File.vi -> AB_Source.lvclass:Copy_SourceItem.vi -> AB_Build.lvclass:Copy_Files.vi -> AB_Build.lvclass:Build.vi -> AB_Build.lvclass:Build_from_Wizard.vi -> AB_UI_FRAMEWORK.vi -> AB_Item_OnDoProperties.vi -> AB_Item_OnDoProperties.vi.ProxyCaller

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 @.

Sorry George M. - either my company's firewall or your address is giving me the following error.

 

Network Error (dns_unresolved_hostname)

Your requested host "ae.natinst.com" could not be resolved by DNS.
 

For assistance, contact your network support team.

Vince M. - None of the links were of any benefit. Can you answer a couple more questions?

1. What is daqmx.rc?

2. Can it be found in any VI? (Maybe there is a bad link? I replaced every DaqMX VI with new ones but that did not help. I have had instances of corrupt VIs.)

I have attached an image that may provide additional help. When I 'generate preview' in the build environment, the problem build seems to want to put 2 copies of 'daqmx.rc' in the support files but in a successful build there is 1 copy of 'daqmx.rc' in the destination directory. Why the difference?

I don't know why there are two copies of the daqmx.rc but the KnowledgeBase attached above should answer the other questions that you have.

 

Please try what is recommended in that article and post here to verify whether or not that worked.

Thanks for the posts! The knowledgebase article helped. My source distribution now works. It may be related to the fact that I am using DAQmx and I am also programatically registering a tree event. (?) Anyway, thanks for sticking in with me until this got solved.

Hi!

 

Here is a program that solves the problem automatically.

Just do these simple steps:

 

1. Remove the VI's from your project

2. Move them to a new location with the VI below

3. Add the VI's back to your project

4. Voilá!
