Error 1003 occurred at ABAPI Dist Chg and Save VIs.vi

[DGU]

I used to be able to build executable file for my application. However when I upgrade to LV8 and try to build executable file, I got the following message.

Error 1003 occurred at ABAPI Dist Chg and Save VIs.vi -> ABAPI Dist Build LLB Image.vi -> ABAPI Copy Files and Apply Settings.vi -> EBEP_Invoke_Build_Engine.vi -> EBUIP_Build_Invoke.vi -> EBUIP_Build_Invoke.vi.ProxyCaller

Possible reason(s):

LabVIEW:  The VI is not executable.

The vi is perfectly executable in LV enviroment.

Anyone know what's going on?

Thanks in advance!

DGU,

Unfortunately this is a known bug in LabVIEW 8.0.1. Our R&D department is well aware of the issue and is currently working on the problem. In the mean time there are some possible work arounds

1. Check the "Enable debugging"option in the "Advanced Category" of the application executable properties.
2. Disable the "Remove Panel" option for all SubVIs containing Shared Variables in the build
3. Try Unchecking the "Disconnect type definitions and remove unused polymorphic VI instances" options also in the Advanced category of the executable properties as shown in the attached figure.
4. Move shared variables to the top level VIs and pass the data through the SubVI connector
5. Downgrade to LabVIEW 8.0.

I apologize for the problem. Please let us know if these suggestions help out. Thanks!

I had this same problem which a lot of people have been having and eventually traced it to a Shared Variable and having the front panel removed automatically.

To expound on the troubleshooting steps above, the "Remove Panel" option is a Build Option under the Source File Settings... find the file in the project tree then deselect the checkbox for Remove Panel.

this should be good enough for me. I will try that. Thank you very much!
