failure build distribution

[halo]

Hello

I trie to build a distribution just with the exe. First few times it works well. But now the Installer is requesting for the setup distribution path. The default path is showing as X:\SmartView\SmartView\Installer\Volume but it will find nothing. Where should this path going?

LabVIEW cannot locate some components necessary to build the installer. The components are from the following distribution(s):

Distribution name: Setup
Last known distribution path: X:\SmartView\SmartView\Installer\Volume

CDK_Build_Invoke.vi.ProxyCaller >> CDK_Build_Invoke.vi >> CDK_Engine_Main.vi >> CDK_Engine_Build.vi >> CDK_Engine_PromptForMissingDist.vi

The default path appears as :X:\SmartView\SmartView\Installer\Volume but there will be not a contiue
