I have created a model that has all of my line work in it called MASTER. Then I create a NEW model and reference the MASTER file. It shows up and works fine. But when I close my NEW model, and re-open it, my MASTER reference is red. Then I have to re-attach it. This happens with every attachment in my NEW model.
The NEW model, and the MASTER are in the same folder on my server.
I have tried the "Save Relative Path" option when I am attaching the MASTER, but after I select "Open", the reference doesn't come through. It says "File not found".
The odd thing is that I have an aerial image referenced in .dgn format that does stay referenced when I close. It is two folders up from where the MASTER and NEW models are on the server.
I have tried "Save Settings".
What the heck am I missing here?
Please identify the version of MicroStation, or other product such as PowerDraft, that you are using: MicroStation CONNECT or MicroStation V8i.

If the master and the reference are in the same folder, then (as I imagine you're expecting) MicroStation should find the reference. You should not need to "Save Relative Path" or anything else.
What is the definition of configuration variable MS_DEF? Is it pointing to the folder on your server where those files are located?
