standard parts library - wont work

(OP)
I have been trying to installing the standard parts library with no success..

I have been installing it from the solid edge cd to c:\Solid Edge Standard Parts   and when the installation in complete i have been trying to change in the tools\options --> file locations  

standard parts SAC file and add the directory to the c:\Solid Edge Standard Parts\SMAPINIFile.sac    but it tells me its not working "the standard parts INI file was not opened successfully"

RE: standard parts library - wont work

Anders,

did you run the setup after the installation:

C:\Program Files\Solid Edge Vxx\Program\StdPartsSetup.exe

this will create some registry entries and after that std-parts
should work.

yes i did, but i still dos not work.. strange..

RE: standard parts library - wont work

Anders,

does the free-contents of the std-parts work? For the full
contents (machinery library) you need at least the classic
version of SE or a seperate license.

What update are you running?

There was a WINDOWS update a few weeks ago, which gave a conflict with Standard Parts, giving the exact error message you are stating.

Update 8 will fix this problem

This is an issue with a MICROSOFT.NET framework upgrade unfortunately I don't remember which ones causes problems so you should contact UGS directly.

I searched for the exact update that is causing this error:

  -  Windows .NET 2.0 update KB928365

Uninstall it, or install update 8

RE: standard parts library - wont work

Thanks for the fix.  Had the same problem, same solution: remove the .NET update.   I'd like to get the update (SEr8) but I let my maintenance lapse.

BTW, is there a way to get the updates for your current release without having a maintenance contract?  (One can dream, eh?)
