is there a way to move the work set folder into a different directory? I tried to just physically cut and paste into another folder but this message comes up. is there a way to change this path to read the new location?
the line "_USTN_WORKSETROOT = …." is not shown in my config. file
The FDOT workspace needs to stay intact. Their FDOT mvba (ribbon tools/icons) will not run if the core workset variables are changed. You will want to keep your Worksets where you told their installer to place them. Mark is correct from a generic Bentley perspective/install, however FDOT will not play well with those changes.

Gonzalo - As Shawn says, my reply is a generic one. I have no idea how FDOT have set up their WorkSpace (I am not US based) so I would recommend sticking with the FDOT method of WorkSet creation.
I actually have the same ? Our company project folder structure is set like this J:\Project#\FPID\. Now It seems all open roads projects are now in one location J:\Worksets\FDOT\FPID. With this model I actually have project files in to different locations. Also there doesn't seem to be away to connect to the project from any of the pull downs. It seems I'm locked or having to change the .cfg file for the actual project if I need to relocate it.
Thx

That worksets directory is able to contain only the cfg and dgnws files. By default a new workset created will place all new standard folders there, however wherever you point your _USTN_WORKSETDGNS in the project {your workset name}.cfg will become the working directory for dgn files and attached reference path. Simply copy the project folders placed in the default workset location over to that new project directory on your project server. Deeper variable is called the _DGNDIR That variable automatically picks up the directory of the working (open) dgn file and maintains the location where the open dgn is looking for its references, etc. In our case we placed the project worksets directory for connect the same location we placed SS4 .pcf files. (//server path/Projects/Worksets ) This workset location may also need to match what is defined by MY_WORKSET_LOCATION path in the custom configuration or WorkSpaceSetup.cfg on your server. For FDOT's workspace that variable is defined in the FDOTWorkSpaceSetup.cfg as set by their installer instructions.
