Error: "Publish failed" when processing AutoPLANT Piping model in through Isogen in Projectwise Integrated project

Overview:

Error: "Publish failed" appears in the Export Progress dialog for AutoPLANT AutoIsogen when processing piping in a Projectwise integrated project. This error is caused by having an incorrect output path for Isogen, which is stored in the ISOGEN.FLS file. Normally, the error would say "PLOTFILE-PREFIX requires trailing backslash". However, in this case the error is different because "Publish to Project" is turned on in Project Administrator ..\project name\Isogen\Post Process.

Solution:

  1. In notepad, open the file ..\AutoPLANT project name\config\Isogen\final\isogen.fls.
  2. Verify the path for the PLOTFILE-PREFIX is correct. This is the output path for the iso's.
  3. Then add a trailing backslash.

Example:

Incorrect path

S:\Project1\Config\Isogen\Final\Drawings

 

Correct path

S:\Project1\Config\Isogen\Final\Drawings\
