Help for the following CVPACK error

   CK1005: invalid executable file

   CVPACK could not process the executable file. One of the following
   may be a cause:

    - The debugging information in the executable file is corrupt

    - The executable file is a zero-length file.

Help for the following CVPACK error

   CK1013: debugging information missing or unknown format

gives the following explanation:

   One of the following has occurred:

    - The program did not contain debugging information. Recompile
      using /Zi or /Zd, then link using /CO.

    - The executable file was linked using an obsolete or unsupported
      linker. Use Microsoft LINK version 5.3x or later.

    - The executable file was already packed using a previous version
      of CVPACK.

Another possible cause for both of these errors is that the linker did not have enough disk space to write the executable file. When CVPACK subsequently tries to the pack the executable, it finds that the file is incomplete and issues the error.
