Unable to locate labview run time engine (lab view 8.5)

[maumontesi]

Hello I have a problem whit the labview 8.5 installer. I have created I project with included a .vi file (a simple panel wich control a serial port, with parameters (baud rate, stop bits, ...)), then I have created an application for this file (.exe) and then the installer (I have included the labview run time engine 8.5). When I run the setup.exe  I have the following error message:

Unable to locate labview run time engine, the application require a labview run time engine 8.5 or compatible...

What I'm missing??

Thanks

are there one other reasons why it would not work.  I have asimilar problem.

I intsalled version 8 of run time engine and acrtivated software.  Now I am trying to run compiled application provided to me by third party.

When I click on application it says

Unable to locate LV run time engine

Test server requires a version 6.0 or compatible LV engine.

How do I know if the engine I installed and activated is running and is it supposed to be able to execute a program which is expectin rev 6 of the rund engine?

It's looking for a version 6 runtime and you installed a version 8 runtime? I'll bet that if you install the correct runtime, the error will go away. The version of the runtime must match the version of LabVIEW that the exe was built with.
