    Product(s): OpenPlant Isometrics Manager
    Version(s): 08.11.09.XXX (SS5) | 08.11.11.XXX (SS6)

    Original Author: Harpreet Singh, Bentley Product Advantage Group

    Problem Description

    Below error message appears while launching OpenPlant Isometrics Manager.

    Reason

    Reason for above error is that it is not able to read the variables it requires to load and hence it fails. In this case below variable was defined incorrectly and application is trying to load the configurations from Style folders where it doesn't find the IsoProj.CFG file and hence the error.

    Steps to Resolve

    Remove "Styles/IFC" from the path as shown below in Project PCF file and save the changes.

    This will resolve the error reported above and application will launch without any error.

    Still a Problem

    If there is still some problem and you cannot connect to OpenPlant Isometrics Manager after trying the above suggestion, then please create a Service Request and contact Bentley Product Advantage group along with the list of all relevant details to get in depth analysis and for possible solution or workarounds.
