Error! Cannot find cvi RTE

[DavidLee]

Hi All,

Using CVI 8.0 created an aplication, I know that  can use the distribution tools to make an installer, but instead I just want to  test the program simply, so copy the program to another PC, and copy cviauto.dll, cyirte.dll cvirt,dll, mesa.dll to the system32 directory, when running the application, it points an error: Can not find RTE directory: C:windows\system32\cvirte. Please advise how to fix the error. Thanks.

From your source machine, also copy the cvirte directory in the system folder to the system folder of your target machine.  This includes a few resources and fonts that the run-time engine uses.

Note that this manual type of RTE "installation" is not recommended.  Your application may depend on more than just the standard run-time engine DLLs, and you may have to copy additional files.  For quick testing, though, you should be okay going this route.

Even better: download from here the CVIRTE for your version and perform a real installation of it on the target machine. Next you can proceed to simply copy your application and test it.
