Entering Admin mode issues

Entering Admin mode issues

Entering Admin mode issues

(OP)
I enter the standard "cnext -env CATIA.V5R19.B19 -admin" in run and it errors out

"Requested Administrator Mode Failed

Variable CATReferenceSettingPath in your enviroment (CATIA_P3.V5R19.B19) is not set

Set the CATReferenceSettingPath Variable in your enviroment"

See attached for more info.

RE: Entering Admin mode issues

you have to define the path of the location to your RefCATSettings before you enter as admin.

in the ENV txt file by default this value is empty.

RE: Entering Admin mode issues


It is not finding the path to your reference settings for any number of reasons.  It may be that you have not defined them, or it may be that the drive or path that you are pointing to is not connected. (be careful of pointing reference settings to a removable drive)
