error 42 at init serial port

[haimk]

I built a simple application  using LabView 7.1  using serial ports and using VISA . I finish the project and built the installer. on the development PC I test the application (from the "start" menu,  and it run correctly. when I try to insall it at another PC (after  checking  that the appropirate port is valid)

I have got an error message "Error 42 occured at Init Serial Port"

what could be the reason for this problem

I am using 7.0 but have never used 7.1. But check out this setting. It may help

Hi there

Have you installed VISA on the target system? You can download it here: https://www.ni.com/en/support/downloads/drivers/download.ni-visa.html

Make sure to enable the "serial port support" option at the Advanced installer settings tab page.
