I am using Microstation V8i release 10. I am following the AEC_WS_001_Managers_Guide for setting up a shortcut with the target as follows:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Bentley\MicroStation V8i (SELECTseries)\MicroStation\ustation.exe" -ws_USTN_SITE=C:\AEC_WS_001\Workspace\Standards\
The AEC_WS_001 folder is in the root C:\folder.
It is not loading the workspace.
Any suggestions
Thanks
The first thing I'm noticing is that your slashes are going the wrong way.
C:\AEC_WS_001\Workspace\Standards\ is correct for a standard Windows path definition, but MicroStation config variables require the unix style forward slashes for path definitions.
Reverse the slashes in your definition so that it reads C:/AEC_WS_001/Workspace/Standards/

Thanks for your reply
I changed all the slashes and still nothing
why are you expecting the whole workspace to load ? you are only identifying a site configuration.

the WS switch is used to set a specific configuration variable.If you are trying to load a configuration FILE (to define your workspace) you may want the WC switch instead. That would need to include not only the path, but the file name as well.

I trying to load the file per the document attached.PDF
Maybe this will provide some insight
When you say it is not loading the workspace...How can you tell?I mean, it looks like you have typed in what the document tells you. I can't vouch for that document, but it looks as if you've gotten it the way they want it.
How can you tell that it is not loading the workspace? Are you missing projects, users or interfaces when you open MicroStation manager? or does that look right, but when you get into the project you are missing resources like levels, text styles, or sheet definitions? Does MicroStation even open?
What part of the workspace seems not to be loading?
the WS switch does not load the workspace it sets a configuration.
I found the document you show and it is very misleading. They have wrong terminology as well as misprinted configuration data.
I would contact the people who posted this article/document - they may be able to point you to what they are attempting to do.
