Sweep function doesn’t work

Hi guys,

 I’m trying to make an M10 screw thread, but can’t figure it out. 
i created a cylinder. I pulled a helix over the cylinder. The helix has a turn height of 1.5mm (m10 pitch), radii of 5m, and a height of 30mm (same length as the cylinder I pulled it across) I’m now trying to sweep the helix using a predefined profile (the triangle shape on the screenshot). The way I use the sweep function is by selecting sweep, select the object to sweep (in this case the triangle), then I set alignment to “no”, and I set base point to be the top corner of the triangle shape. I then select the helix as the sweep path. I get an error stating “profile curve may not be selected as path curve” (see screenshot).

 What am I doing wrong?
