Problem:

How Do I Install Bentley AutoPIPE CONNECT QA v.12.00.00.16 ?.

Solution:

Note: there is a possibility that the computer may need to be restarted, therefore highly suggested to save all current work and close all running applications before continuing below. 

1. This procedure assumes that Licensing Server has already been install and configured for the company, If not please contact your Bentley On-Site Admin or Bentley License group to assist you.

2. User currently logged into the computer must have full Administration rights.

3. Suggest that AutoPIPE CONNECT is installed by accepting all the default settings.

a. Prefer that the application is not installed over a network connection; suggest that the EXE file or CD be on the user's computer before starting the installation.

b. If you have already installed other AutoPIPE versions, using add/remove programs uninstall:
       i.  all previous versions of AutoPIPE
       ii. " PCF to NTL translator
       iii. " ADLPipe to NTL translator
       iv. " Bentley STRAIT

c. Navigate to the EXE file copied to the computer or from the CD

d. Double click on the "ap12000016en.exe" to start the installation process.

Note: Be patient while the application is installing as it is checking to verify programs already installed, verifying drive space, etc.. there may be periods when it appears nothing is happening. Give the system time. In the event the installation stops a warning / error will be presented. Just follow the prompts and be patient. Highly recommended that all applications are closed during the installation process. On average it will take 6-8 min to install everything.
