Hello -
I like to load InRoads using a custom tool (keyin mdl load civustat.ma). However, since updating to newer versions of both IR and MS, this tool no longer "works" and results in the following Message Center errors:
"MDL Loader: Unable to load library (DLL or MDL shared library) CivUstAT"
"OS could not load C:\Program Files (x86)\Bentley\InRoads Group V8.11\bin\CivUstAT.dll, error 126."
The same occurs when trying to "load" from the Utilities->MDL dialog box (the CivUstAT.ma path is listed in both the MS_MDL and MS_MDLAPPS variables). However, if I select "Browse" and load CivUstAT.ma, it loads with no errors. I can then close IR and the custom tool and "load" button will work for the duration of the MS session.
Operation also appears perfectly normal when starting IR from the Start Menu shortcut(s).
Is there something I'm not doing properly to get the custom tool to work?
FYI, I'm running InRoads SS2 (08.11.07.536) in MS SS3 (08.11.09.292).
Does anyone every have a fix for the problems posted here? These posts are dated way back in January and I still don't see an answer to the "error 126" problem! If someone could help out I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks
Here is what I had to do to get it to work with our custom menu:
Create a cfg file named Load_InRoads_SS2.cfg with Load_InRoads_SS2=1 as the only line within it.
Place or create this file in the C:\cad\Bentley\MicroStation\config\system folder.
This will allow you to use the key-in, mdl load civustat.ma, as usual.
However, with the new inroads, 08.11.09.493 - SS3, I found that it does not call up the same way. I have changed our custom menu to call inroadsactivate inroads suite and found this also works for the SS2 version.
The BUT here is that I have not tried too hard to try and have both versions installed at once and what it would take to call them separately. If I use the same command I believe it calls the last version that was loaded from the menu.
I had to resort to adding these lines to my standards.cfg file:
MS_DGNAPPS > C:/Program Files/Common Files/Bentley Shared/Civil Platform/08.11.07/CivilDialogExt.maMS_DGNAPPS > C:/Program Files/Microstation_V8i/PrintPreparation/bin/PrintPrep.maMS_DGNAPPS > C:/Program Files/Microstation_V8i/InRoads Group V8.11/bin/Bentley.InRoads.Commands.AT.dllMS_DGNAPPS > C:/Program Files/Microstation_V8i/InRoads Group V8.11/bin/gpkGalServerAT.maMS_DGNAPPS > C:/Program Files/Microstation_V8i/InRoads Group V8.11/bin/gpkDgnAT.maMS_DGNAPPS > C:/Program Files/Common Files/Bentley Shared/Civil Platform/08.11.07/DialogExt.ma
Now the Applications Menu heading becomes available within Microstation.
Microstation CONNECT 10.17.00.209
ORD CONNECT 2021 R1 10.10.1.3
Microstation v8i SS 10 08.11.09.919
Power InRoads v8i 08.11.09.615
ProjectWise 10.0.3.453
I was running into the same issue on a user's machine. In the past I was able to use the command line switch with no problem. Since the user is running MS SS3 and IR SS2, this wouldn't work. (our other users are using MS SS2)
The solution presented by mwlong worked and the Applications menu is now available. Thanks for posting this solution!
