Hello.
I'm having some problems publishing an .imodel for Bentley Map Mobile.
I'm using MicroStation V8i (Ss4) version 08.11.09.838, Bentley Map V8i (Ss4) version 08.11.09.763 (for MicroStation) and I just installed Bentley Map Mobile Publisher version 05.05.02.218.
I was publishing an imodel for Map Mobile and it stopped with the following error dialog:
"Error protecting file:
[C:\Users\.....\Temp\[filename].i.dgn]"
And here is a clip from Message Center:
Does anyone know what the problem is?
Regards,
Bjorn
We saw a report of this a couple of years ago, try the High Security Map executable to initialize Bentley Map and see if that allows the process to complete. And please file a Service Request with us so that we can track-down the exact cause of the problem.
Hello Dan and thanks for the answer.
I filed a Service Request just now.
I have never initialized Bentley Map using the High Security Map executable. Can you give me a short description on how it's done?
Open the Start Menu, scroll to the B and Bentley Map CONNECT Edition entry, and select the Bentley Map CONNECT Edition (High Security) menu entry.
Have you tried publishing from other DGN Files? What are the results? If this is a DWG File, save it as a DGN File and try it again.
Check to see if the MS_SECURITY_LEVEL Environment Variable is set on your computer or Workspace.
Do you have any special User Access Controls set for the Bentley Map User or your Domain User? That could be part of the problem too.
Dan, has this error ever been resolved or the casue is known? I am facing the same error but only on OpenUtilities. However, same file, same computer, same user, opened in MapEnterprise is published with no problems. But when tried with OpenUtilities the same error appears. Tried HighSecurity as well as checked MS_SECURITY_LEVEL, no change.
I don't know that a Defect was filed to correct the problem, I will look into it.
It could be related to the version of Map that the OpenUtilities was built with -what version of OpenUtilities are you using? What version of Map Enterprise does the solution work in? We can compare to see if that may be the problem (fixed in a later OpenUtilities build).
Have you tried the Map Mobile Converter? This is a command-line tool that is installed with the Map Mobile Publisher, and includes all the functionality of the interactive Publisher, and more. See: https://bentleysystems.github.io/mapmobile-docs/ for details.
Never used Converter since I have always managed to do everything I needed via Publisher, but will have to try it.
Setup is as follows: Publisher latest version 05.05.04.13. Installed on a machine with Win10-64.
There are MapEnterprise 08.11.09.836, Map for MS (Map same version, MS 08.11.09.867) and OpenUtilities Map 08.11.09.880 - so three various platforms on the same computer.
Publisher is correctly integrated on all three platforms. Inside Map for MS and MapEnterprise puublisher works perfectly. Inside OU Map delivers listed error. It was tested on three different computers (same setup, same results), various files and data (same results) so it does not seem to be data related nor specific installation related since the behaviour is always the same.
Hi Dan,
I'm also interested in this topic since I'm facing the same problem. I've tried to publish simple dgn from Bentley OpenUtilities Map into iModel via command line Converter with same result.
Thanks in advance for any information.

What is the specific error message, "error protecting file"? I've asked our OpenUtilities Map colleagues to test this for us as-well.
