this just started happening to me, looking for a solution.

Did anyone find a successful solution to this? I have this same issue and have closed/reopened the folder, deleted all the .rsc files from my temporary folder, changed the location of the .gdf to a location I know is not write-protected, verified my user preferences->COGO Preferences, and still have found no solution. I'm unsure of where the "docs & settings" folder is location, or the config variable.

It happens to me all the time. I usually edit one of the profiles (profile edit list, pick one) and set the To node the same as the from node. This causes the program to freak out and crash. I let it crash, re-open everything and can continue working. the message center thing should pop open displaying whatever errors come up. make sure you save just before you intentionally make it crash. When you come back online you wonb't have to mess with the profile at all (i.e change it back...it should be what you had).

Dan,

Thanks for the help. What is the config variable?

Hi Aaron;

Its trying to create/open the drain message file but it is likely on a folder/server that is write-protected. By default it writes this file to the same location as your DGN/GDF file. It can also write to the "docs & settings" folders. There is also a config variable that lets you write it to another location. Check those three perhaps and let us know if that helps?

Dan
