Problem in creating win installer in i-Collection of common programming errors
I am trying to create an executable file (.exe) of iReport with my module included in it. While I run the target the create-iReport-distro-win-installer, I am getting the following error. Note: I am using netbeans 6.5.1
java.io.IOException: Cannot run program "makensis" (in directory "C:\Program Files\NetBeans 6.5.1\iReport-3.7.2-src"): CreateProcess error=2, The system cannot find the file specified

You must specify the full path to the nsis executable, like C:\Programme\NSIS\makensis.exe
Or you can add the path to the PATH environment variable: System Settings -> System -> Advanced -> Environment Variables. Don’t forget to restart Netbeans to recognize a change to this variable.
