The rfa interpreter does not create the .xml file on the ProjectWise workspace.
Anyone has a solution for this?
Hi Yehia,
What are the versions of ProjectWise and AECOsim that you are using? Also, please check the read/write access to the folder location where you are importing the RFA object in, i.e., Standards folder for the Workset or Workspace level, Dataset for Organization level.
Regards,
RDEB
I use Aecosim select series 6 & projectwise V8 version 10.00.03.49.
I do have read/write access to the folder location on projectwise. However the files do not get imported. I do not get the message "The files were created successfully" or "The files were read successfully". I just get the dataset root directory at the finish window.
What are the values for BB_RFA_COMPANY_SETTINGS and BB_RFA_PROJECT_SETTINGS? By default they are set to $(BB_DATASET_COMPANY_FILTER)setting\rfawizard\ and $(BB_DATASET_PROJECT_FILTER)setting\rfawizard\, which equates to the \setting\rfawizard\ folder under the primary dataset and project folders.
The values are exactly as u said. They equate to the folder location where bim objects should be imported as xml files.
Do you have the ability to test this outside of PW using the same workspace? That is, assuming the managed workspace was created by importing an existing local copy.
That would be good i believe. How do i set the same workspace outside of PW?
That depends... how was the PW workspace created? I've seen this done by setting up the folder structure and CFG files outside of PW, then importing that into PW using ProjectWise Administrator. If you don't have the equivalent already available outside of PW then of course it would be a bit more difficult... Perhaps as an alternative, you could choose a delivered workspace that closest resembles your PW workspace, such as NM or UK, etc., and test using that. Assuming everything works as expected (and it should) you can compare configuration variables between the two looking for relevant differences. For example, the two variables above that we already know match, but also the BB_DATASET_xxx variables that they are based off of, and so on. IOW, looking at the configuration hierarchy that relates to RFA import. If that makes sense.
