Create installer for creating a palette

My query is to create a installer (setup.exe) file  so that if i install the file then it will create a function palette (of my custom vis) in labview auitomatically.
Like in the link below modbus installer is there: when installed it creates a palette in the user libraries.
http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/47F89816179​2C62F8625756A005D0E7E.
I have gone to through the link below but it gives idea about adding, editing or deleting palette manually.

Dear shrekt
I am also trying to do this with out VIPM. Is it possible without VIPM or not? I am using LabVIEW 2010.

  • Is there any way to create an installer for Mac OS and Linux OS once a stand alone application is created?

    Is there any way to create an installer for Mac OS and Linux OS once a stand alone application is created?  I have created an executable application that I want to distribute to Mac and Linux users (different applications were created in the respective OS).  I was wondering if there is any way to create an installer?  I think there probably isn't...  If the user were to simply download the Labview Run-time Engine from ni.com would they be able to run the application or is it more complicated than that?
    Thanks so much for your time.

    I think Shane tried to say, that it is on the Mac OS X installation DVD, NOT the LabVIEW for Mac OS X installation medium. And that could very well have changed in recent Mac OS X versions as well. They used to have Xcode on it too, but that seems gone as well.

  • How do I create an installer for my project that allows for variable data entry like a server unc path?

    Hello All,
    I have a questions and a few hours of scouring the internet hasn't brought me much closer to an answer.
    Here's what I want to do. I have created a visual c# wpf application. I want to have an installer that during install time will have a text box or something where I can enter a server path as a string. Basically my application needs to know where to look
    for a server unc path \\server\somesharedfolder that it will be accessing primarily for its work. Secondly, how do I reference said information from within my code.
    I have come across application/user scoped settings, which appears to be what I'm looking for. However I can't find a way to have the installer prompt for a value "Server Path:" __________ that I could type into during installation. So far it appears
    the only way would be to edit the config.deploy file before running the installer, which isn't a big deal but you'd think there'd be an easy way to take in variables during install.
    EDIT: Apparently I can't edit the config.deploy file as I get an error message about the hash not matching.
    Thanks for your help!

    Hello,
    The forums I found confusing, didn't know the best place to put this question so I put it here.
    I have found the answer over at stackoverflow and will detail here for anyone who may stumble across the same problem.
    The problem is ClickOnce seemingly doesn't support this feature. Installshield LE either doesn't or does but its incredibly too complicated if all you need is one variable passed to the registry during installation. And it seems the words used for googling
    this particular problem will never lead you to the solution.
    So here's how to do it (we will be first adding the Visual Studio Installer Add-on to restore original installer project functionality):
    1) Inside of visual studio 2013 go to Tools -> Extensions and Updates
    2) On the left-hand side click on Online -> Visual Studio Gallery
    3) In the upper-right search box search for "Visual Studio Installer"
    4) Download the extension labeled "Microsoft Visual Studio Installer Projects"
    5) Install, then open a new project under Templates -> Other Project Templates -> Visual Studio Installer -> Setup Project
    6) Now for the gold. In the solution explorer there are icons in a bar just below its title bar, highlight till you see "User Interface Setup" and open it.
    7) Now you can right click on Start, Progress, End etc any Category heading and hit Add Dialog.
    8) From here for my purposes, I used TextBoxes A
    9) Once you add it, click on it and observe its properties window. You will see Label, Property, and Value. Make a note of the property name as it will be used to store the data directly into the registry. *Note: there appears to be no way to perform data
    validation using the built in textbox dialogs, users can enter whatever they want and move on.
    10) Go to the registry editor on the same icon bar under solution explorer.
    11) Specify your registry folder, make a new value (I used string) and name it whatever you like. In the value section enter the property label formatted as such   [EDITA1]   depending on your value. 
    12) Now when you run the installer for your project, it will take data into that field and place it into the registry provided it has access to that key with the permissions you run the program under.

  • How can I create an installer for my project that can work on 32-bit Windows if I have 64-bit Windows Vista?

    Hi, 
    I made a LabVIEW project that works perfectly and made an installer for it. I tested the installer on my own computer and everything worked well. The goal for my installer was to put it on multiple computers. So I tried to do this on another computer that has Vista 32-bit and it told me that the installer can only run on 64-bit computers. I tried to choose to install run-time 32bit and it did not change anything, there was still a message to tell me that this installer only can be ran on 64-bit computers. How can I make an installer that works on 32-bit computers? 
    Thank you. 
    Solved!

    The code will have to recompile, but yes it should work.  I recommend making a backup before proceeding just in case.

  • Creating Runtime Installer for VI with VISA Read VI

    Greetings Fellow Users,
    Please let me know which 'ADDITIONAL INSTALLERS' the  LabView RunTime engine requires in order to run a VI that reads from the built-in serial port (COM 1) of a Windows XP PC.  For instance, I include LabView Run-Time engine 8.0.1 to creat an installer for the VI.  If I want to load and run this .exe on a PC that has no other NI software, do I need to include any of the following as 'ADDITIONAL INSTALLERS':
    ->NI-SERIAL 1.8?
    ->NI-VISA RUNTIME 3.4?
    ->NI-DAQmx 8.0?
    What does the NI-VISA RUNTIME do anyways?  Also, when I do include some of these, I have to dig out my LanVIEW installations CDs and they are loaded from teh D:\.  What is the cleanest way to load these onto my HDD so that LabView will select these automatically.
    Thank you.

    ->NI-SERIAL 1.8?
    This is the driver used for serial port controller boards and
    interfaces from NI. You do not need that software when trying to access
    built in serial ports or ports on interface cards from other
    manufactureres than NI.
    ->NI-VISA RUNTIME 3.4?
    This is the software LabVIEW uses to talk to all kinds of IO interfaces
    including serial ports. This is what you will need. Runtime means it is
    a stripped down version without LabVIEW, C, VB, Delphi and whatever
    development bindings and examples etc.
    ->NI-DAQmx 8.0?
    This is the software driver for NI data acquisition devices (analog IO, digital IO, counter , timers).
    These are all to be considered drivers and (very maybe apart from
    NI-VISA) it is usually not a very good idea to include drivers into the
    application installer. If you use them your user is likely to have
    bought his own kind of hardware and no matter if he happens to have
    bougt the newest SuperPCI interface board with 256 ultra-high-speed
    serial ports over wireless connections or an old standard PCI board
    with 2 RS-232 interfaces they both will have come with a CD that is
    appropriate for that device, whereas the NI-Serial driver you included
    is only appropriate for NI serial boards that are still AND already
    sold at the moment when that driver was released. The same applies for
    any other driver software.
    NI_VISA being able to connect to standard built-in serial ports could
    be considered different but it isn't really. I have included NI-VISA on
    application installers in the past only to find out that the included
    NI-VISA version did not run or not run reliably on newer machines with
    new OS versions, so we had to point the customer to the NI site to
    download the newest version anyhow, or even burn a new CD with updated
    NI-VISA versions and express ship it.
    Basically including any kind of driver software in the application
    installer may seem like a good idea but will usually cause lots of
    additional support after some time due to incompatibilities with newer
    OS versions, new hardware, etc.

  • How do i fix the Error 26073 when i try to creater an installer for my applicati

    When i try to create a Labview V6.1 installer for my application i get the error
    Error26073 occured at Build application.vi>>Dist call Create Installer.vi>>Win Install Create.vi>>Win Install Add files.vi>>MSI DK Add shortcut.vi
    the possible reason listed is   NMDK_AS_BAD_SHORTCUT_NAME
    I have heaps of disk space free
    THe installer worked fine a few months ago

    Hi Rambo,
    Thank you for contacting National Instruments.  From the information you have provided here, its sounds like a couple of different things can be causing this issue.  In looking at some previous instances where this error code was reported when using the application builder, it would be worthwhile to look at the file name field and the location the VIs are saved. 
    Take a look at the field where the file name is provided and ensure only the name is in this location.  By this I mean that the file path and name aren't both concatenated and entered here.
    Also, if the VIs are saved in the user library or the vi library see if it makes any difference if they are moved to another directory. 
    I hope this helps!  If not, any other possible information that you have or may come upon would definitely be helpful.  Have a great day!

  • Hi, how do I create a standalone installer for Mountain Lion, ie, download once and then no more broadband required, thanks?

    Hi, how do I create a standalone installer for Mountain Lion, ie, download once and then no more broadband required, thanks?
    Context is that my other computers are not mobile and I do not have broadband worth troubling for a 4GB download - so will go to Apple Store with MacBook Pro for first download.

    The easiest way is to download the installer but do not open it.
    Next, make a copy of it and store it where it won't get lost.
    Then take one of the copies and place into the applications directory and open it to begin the installer.
    This has saved me the trouble of ever having to download the installer twice, plus you can mess around with the installer and try different options without having to worry about not having a clean install file if needed.
    Best wishes

  • Creating an installer oracle installer for my project

    I want to make an oracle db installer for my program. When it is executed it should be able to search the tnsnames.ora and list the services in combo box. Up to this it is finished
    Now, I want to:
    1. logging to the service with login id and password :
    2. after successful login all the users under the service should be listed. I can either choose the existing user or create a new user with sufficient rolls.
    3. after that I want to execute scripts for creating tables etc. These scripts are stored in separate folder.
    I am coding in VC++ 6. How will I write functions which perform the above tasks?

    You can use v$tables to Qry the active users.
    You should have enough previlage to create the users

  • PDQ - Create Silent installation for EXE install package

    The first question is: Do you have the free version or paid for version of PDQ Deploy? This will make a little difference in your approach for deployment.For the .net part, just download the off line installer for the version you want to deploy. This will be in a .exe form just append the /quite /norestart options to the command line. No need to check if .net is already installed, the installer will just exit if there is nothing to do.For your application, you need to find out if there is a silent install option.For the registry you can just export the registry keys in question with regedit. then in your installer action/script just run the following command regedit.exe /s .regYou can add this all to the install sequence if you have the paid for version or in a .cmd file in the same location as the other install files in your packages...

    Hi,
    I got EXE file for installation
    want to create it a silent installation for deplying it to 100 computers.
    needs to check if Dot.Net 4.5 already install and if not install it before installing the EXE
    after Installing the EXE need to Activate it using Reg file
    how to create all this procces to be installed Silent mode

  • After CC packager created installer for Lightroom, Installer does not install

    I created an installer for Lightroom (windows) using the CC packager. When I tested it it did not install Lightroom.  I tried the 32bit version and the 64bit version and they both did the samething.  Is there a problem with creating the Lightroom installer?

    Far out, I have been suffering from the same issue! I have tried on multiple machines to install Lightroom CCP pacakge! When running the setup.exe for other packages it will actually install the application and display a desktop icon / program files entry. I have wasted hours trying to figure out why Lightroom wasn't installing even tho event logs said successful! How is there no official documentation from Adobe that this is the expected behaviour for Lightroom manual installs?
    Sure the documentation says run setup.exe then exceptions installer, my thoughts were why bother with exception installer if the main package has not installed correctly! It should mention the program won't appear until exceptions have been installed?
    Thanks for creating this thread DeltaCollege! And thanks for the resolution Romsinha!

  • 11.2.0.2 Grid Installation for a Standalone Server FAILED!

    OS: OEL-5.5 x86_64 (kernel-2.6.18-194.17.4.0.1.el5, glibc-2.5-49.el5_5.7)
    Product: Oracle 11gR2 (11.2.0.2.0) x86_64 for Linux
    Hi,
    I was trying to perform a clean and full 11.2.0.2 installation for a Standalone Server (Single database + ASM + Restart), but unlike 11.2.0.1, this standalone patch, shipped as set of full installation files, has serious flaws mainly due to insane installation and configuration scripts. My environment is as follows:
    ORACLE_BASE=/opt/oracle
    ORACLE_HOME=/opt/oracle/product/11.2.0/db_1
    GRID_HOME=/opt/oracle/product/11.2.0/grid
    all owned by oracle:dba. ASMLib was configured with four 256 GB partitions on four physical disks.
    1. During grid installation the Prepare, Copy files, Link binaries, Setup files, Execute Root Scripts (root.sh), Update Inventory, Oracle Net Configuration Assistant all succeeded, but ASM Configuration Assistant FAILED and installation couldn't continue. That was because root.sh script (and inside it calling scripts) changed the ownership of ORACLE_BASE and GRID_HOME to root:dba, so that admin and diag directories creations in ORACLE_BASE were not permitted. After fixing that manually as root (immediately after executing root.sh), the installation continues and succeeds.
    2. During installation of Client software the error message window appears stating that cannot find the /opt/oracle/product/11.2.0/db_1/oui/bin/runInstaller.var file. By pressing the Continue button the installation continues ignoring this.
    3. If Oracle Scheduler Agent is selected for installation during Client software installation, the Oracle Enterprise Manager 11g Database Control Release 11.2.0.2.0 cannot start (https problem - cannot establish connection). To fix this, I had to deinstall Client software and install it again without Oracle Scheduler Agent.
    4. The Performance window in Enterprise Manager 11g Database Control Release 11.2.0.2.0 cannot display any graph ("Initializing" and "Transferring data from localhost..." never end).
    Are those issues known issues? If they are, why did Oracle ship that standalone patch without testing it before? Given that prior release (11.2.0.1) was free of any errors above, it is really beyond me to figure out this negligence.

    Are those issues known issues? Have you created service request ? That would be much better to be sure about the workaround you found.

  • Should I use time machine, CCC or  a bootable installer for OS X Yosemite

    I am about to change my mid-2010 MBP and install a Samsung 850 pro. I have Yosemite (by the way: Yosemite performance is good, no slowness; hdd filled only 50%) - I have VPN Tracker and Microsoft Remote Desktop as main applications at the moment. I will also use it for itunes.
    I have made a backup on time machine.
    The process instructions on the net vary: 
    1) After replacing the HDD with the SSD, press down Command + R, this opens boot utility of Yosemite; then with disk utility format the SSD as MacOs ext journal. then: Back-up from time machine.
    2) OR: Use Carbon Copy Cloner. Connect the SSD on a USB tray (I have one) and commence from there before installing. On re
    3) OR: Should I first  - Create a bootable installer for OS X Yosemite; the instruction says: Download the OS X Installer app from the Mac App Store. But I can't find it. And then clone as Kappy describes.
    - Isn't that replaced by the Command + R startup procedure?
    & I am looking for insight in this tip:
    4) I read someone failed in installing an SSD because he forgot an I/F sensor connection (Temperature gauge??) ; but I see such a connector nowhere in the video's.
    Of course I prefer 1), looks most straightforward as being within the Apple software mindset.
    anything will help me.

    First I would explore the potential problems you may face installing a third party SSD in a MBA running Yosemite.  Just a sample:
    http://www.zdnet.com/article/os-x-yosemite-and-third-party-ssds-heres-what-you-n eed-to-know/
    The simplest way of installing a new storage device is to connect it to the MBP via USB and then format it Mac OS Extended (Journaled) in Disk Utility>Erase.
    Then use CCC or Disk Utility>Restore to copy the data to the SSD from the internal HDD.
    Then test to see if the external SSD will boot the MBP.  If so, make the physical swap.
    Ciao.

  • Third Party Plug-in for Multiple Swatch Palettes in InDesign

    Hello,
    Does anyone know if there is a third-party plug in to have multiple swatch palettes in InDesign? I would like to create different palettes for different sections of the long document --- scrolling through all of the swatches each time is cumbersome.
    Many thanks!
    Jessica W.

    Here's a little trick that may not even require a third party plugin
    On the Master Page
    Create a bunch of rectangles, colour them with all the swatch colours you need, make as many pallettes as you like.
    Then group them together
    Create a text frame
    Insert the group as anchored objects
    Alignment make it away from spine (so it's always way out to the right or left)
    Then Move the text frame over so that it encroaches on the page.
    duplicate the frame and put it on the other side too.
    Now all your pages have palletes of colour beside them. And you can use the Eye Dropper to sample the colours.
