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
Have you tried it out in the field on the mobile device?
Map Mobile format is not a DGN and probably would not support reading data i.e. GCS from an imodel "dgndb" as we would from a "dgn" file... the iModel "dgndb" is a read only format designed for the Map Mobile platform.... Try it with the Map Mobile application to see if the data is in the correct location.
Dear Dan,
We've made some progress. iModel was created when I detach WMS raster in original DGN file (Dugave.dgn) and convert DGN into iModel (Dugave.imodel) using Map Mobile Converter Shell.
Many thanks for that. I'll explore other options from github as You suggested me.
Another and related question is: when original DGN file is converted into iModel, there is no defined Geographic Coordinate System like in original DGN file. Do You know anything about this problem? My intention is to work with iModel on the field using GPS to navigate me.
I even tried to add option for Converter "... --coordinate-system=EPSG:3765 ..." with same result.
Many thanks in advance.

I think the problem may be in the Shell that you are using for the Converter - don't use the MS DOS Cmd window, open the Map Mobile Converter shell using the Map Mobile Converter key-in in the Windows "Type here to search" field:
Then select the application from the list
Then issue the MapMobileConvert.exe command from the Bentley Map Mobile Converter window
Let us know if that works.
Bentley Map Mobile Converter (bentleysystems.github.io)
in Map Mobile Publisher installed correctly on OpenUtilities Map 8.11.09.880 the error is:
In command line Converter we have similar situation (without error message but imodel was not created)
HTH
What is the specific error message, "error protecting file"? I've asked our OpenUtilities Map colleagues to test this for us as-well.
