Installer Build always unsuccessful

I have been attempting to write an installer using the application builder.  The Installer software runs to completion (I go through the steps of loading the driver disks, etc.), but the build is always unsuccessful.  I have had this problem ever since I installed Labview 8.2 on a separate computer staring 6 months ago.  Originally, I had 8.2 installed on a laptop which has since been uninstalled, but those builds worked.  I recently updated to 8.2.1 and hoped that installing the new software would fix the problem.  It didn't.

I would very much like to know what is wrong.  It appears that it is looking for a nonexistant file from a previous build that I made on the old computer.  Is this error a result of caching the driver information and how do I fix it?

Here is the list of the possible errors:

CDK_CreateNewWizard_Invoke.vi.ProxyCaller >> CDK_CreateNewWizard_Invoke.vi >> CDK_InstallerConfiguration_Editor.vi >> CDK_Build_Invoke.vi >> CDK_Engine_Main.vi >> CDK_Engine_Build.vi >> NI_MDF.lvlib:MDFBuildDist_Build.vi

Hello,

You have to tell more about the steps you take and the software you're using. Maybe screenshots of the installer build configuration and the place you find the error messages.

Regards,

André
