  • 1. This is a typical error message you receive when the InRoads and MicroStation products were installed in an incorrect order.  If InRoads is installed before MicroStation (either manually or sometimes a multi-installer package can do this), some necessary CFG files are not written to the correct locations.  You can try to verify this by going to C:\Program Files\Bentley\MicroStation V8i (SELECTseries)\MicroStation\config\appl and see if the InRoadsAT.cfg is located in this location.  If it is not, then it is possible that this could be the problem.  What you would then have to do is uninstall InRoads (you can keep MicroStation installed), and run the installation for InRoads again, where it will write everything to the correct locations.

    2. If that InRoadsAT.CFG is in that location, we may need to add the command line switch to the programs executables as Andrea suggested.  You can visit the website to learn more about the command line switch:

    communities.bentley.com/.../inroads-command-line-switch.aspx

    There are two methods for adding the switch.  The first is adding –wsLoad_InRoads_SS2=1 to the MicroStation and InRoads shortcut target (under the shortcut properties) or you can create a CFG in the MicroStation folder C:\Program Filed\Bentley\MicroStation V8i (SELECTseries2)\MicroStation\config\system which contains the following

    Load_InRoads_SS2=1

    and try to launch InRoads.  You should now get InRoads to open without the message and the explorer should appear.

    NOTE:  This is specific to InRoads V8i SELECTseries2.  There is a similar process for SELECTseries3 with some minor modifications to the values.
