WM6 - CAB file "<FILENAME>.CAB" could not be created

Expand Post »

I have been working on a project using Visual Studio.Net 2005 and Windows Mobile 6.1

After several builds and installers it has started throwing up an error during the build stage.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

The error contained in the output list:

Stock - RDT -> C:\VB Projects\Stock\Stock - RDT\Stock - RDT\bin\Release\Stock - RDT.exe

Re: WM6 - CAB file "<FILENAME>.CAB" could not be created

It was caused by a dll I had written.

The dll was set to Windows Mobile 6 Standard and The Program was set to Windows Mobile 6.1 Pro

I removed the dll added the project found the issue that way then removed the project and readded the dll.

Closing Visual Studio after each add and remove.
