Failed to open ?? problem, please help

Failed to open ?? problem, please help

Failed to open ?? problem, please help

(OP)
Hello all, I have several important files that, for some reason, are now failing to open.  It seems that everytime I create a new model (nx3), any old files will no longer open.  Can anyone help me ?  :(

RE: Failed to open ?? problem, please help

Can you be more specific as to what the error messages are?

When I opened up an assembly it reads "The following files could not be loaded causing this open to fail: E:engineering/gear1/motion.prt -Internal error.  When I tried to open an individual part, it says the same thing.

btw, it does in fact preview the part before i open the files

RE: Failed to open ?? problem, please help

Run ug_inspect on the part.
Check your load options.

"When I tried to open an individual part, it says the same thing."  

Try seeing the syslog file or open a Unigraphics log file. It may give some clue of why you could not open it.

Opening a log file
1. Try opening the file
2. It will throw an error as you specified
3. Select Help-> Unigraphics log file
4. An information window will open. Check out the last 30 lines.

Opening a syslog file
1. Try opening the file
2. It will throw an error as you specified
3. Search *.syslog and open the latest syslog file in your machine.

Syslog file may be helpful when you run external ufunc programs without opening a unigraphics session.

You may have to contact GTAC for any resolution.  I recently had a part file that I couldn't open.  UG_INSPECT reported it was corrupt.  We sent it into GTAC but haven't heard any thing from them in a few weeks.  Supposedly priority 1.
