Win2000

Solved!
Go to solution

I used LabView 8.5 to modify the test program which was built from 7.1. When I created the application installer, I did select the Window 2000 or later for the System Requirements.

My target is PXI 8175 which has Win2000 OS. When I run the installer, I got the message that required WinXP and the installation stopped.

Are there any special configuration settings to build the installer? Did anybody experience with similar problem?

What additional installers are you including? It is possible that one of the other bundled components requires XP, even if the installer as a whole has a less strict requirements list.

Hello,

Only LVRTE8.5.1 is included as the additional installer, nothing else (please see attachment). I manually installed this RTE into the test system. I behaved the same. Are there something related to the Win2000 service packs?

This is a shot in the dark, but the cost is small so it is worth trying. In the setup.ini file locate the value

[OS]
VersionNTMin=5,1,2600,0,0 //or whatever

 

 and try to replace it with

[OS]
VersionNTMin=

 



Besides which, my opinion is that Express VIs Carthage must be destroyed deleted

You should make a verbose log. It could help support. I know Labview recent have changed installer system. So one of these methods will work. Use the run command to start the setup exe One of the two command line examples will work

"C:\my example\online\Installer\Volume\setup.exe"  /log "c:\example.log"

 

 

"C:\my example\online\Installer\Volume\setup.exe" /L*V "c:\example.log"

 Also in the ...\Installer\Volume\bin\dp, see if you can find a DevPartDef.xml file then change

<OSRestriction>
      <OSVersion OSFamily="VersionNT" max="" min="5,0,2195,0,0"/>
    </OSRestriction>

 

to

<OSRestriction>
      <OSVersion OSFamily="VersionNT" max="" min=""/>
    </OSRestriction>

 

I do not know if it will help this time either

Hello,

The problem is the same. I attached the log file for you. Thank you.

What happens if you run the application without running the installer? If you've already installed the RTE manually, are you using the installer to move files? Also, what  OS is the dev computer running? I'm assuming it's XP.

Hello,

You're right. This is the shot in the dark. I did copy the exe file from the dev machine (WinXP), and the application run OK. I believe we can stop trying to solve this problem now. Thank you for your help.
