MicroStation Connect Edition doesn't start without network connection. It closes without further notice after showing the splash screen. Connection Client opens with 'Connection Issues' error.Is this expected behavior?MicroStation Connect Edition 10.12.00.40Connection Client 10.00.16.10
MattSexton said:We're not getting the 7-day grace period since updating to Connection Client version 16.10.
I have experienced the same problem. I was not able to identify the version dependency, so thanks for this information.
Anyway, it's seriously annoying, because when I am offline at customer's site, I cannot be sure what application I will be able to start and what not. Unfortunately it seems Bentley does not deliver technology we can rely on anymore.
With regards,

Hi Jan,
When your at your client's site and the Bentley products work like this, it's great advertising for Bentley... And all this after I've been working on getting this corrected for the last couple of years through the Beta program. It makes me feel like all that time and effort has been wasted. Even if they fix it in the next version, it will break in the version or two after that.

Has Bentley confirmed that it is a BUG with the 16.10 version and not the intended behavior going forward?
We were looking at an update to PowerGEOPAK SS10 and were planning to load the 16.10 Connection Client.
I logged a service ticket two days ago, and have confirmed with Bentley that they have replicated the issue and are working with development to resolve it. They did not confirm necessarily that it was a bug and not operating as designed, but the general surprised reaction that we've gotten so far would indicate to me that it is an unexpected bug.

This has been confirmed as a bug in 10.00.16.09 and 10.00.16.10. An announcement has just been posted regarding the issue. Please downgrade to CONNECTION Client 10.00.15.12 as a workaround until a new version of CONNECTION Client can be released. The announcement gives instructions for obtaining this installer.
