Cannot Log Into Vault while in Inventor

[nsulli15]

When I get latest versions of files from Vault Explorer and then open them in Inventor, the vault status of the files in the Inventor browser shows a triangle with an exclaimation mark inside of it. When I move my mouse over the status icon, it says "vault not open". There is no response when I try to log into the Vault within Inventor.

I upgraded from 2009 to 2010 Inventor and Vault two weeks ago. Everything worked fine until today. Vault Explorer seems to be working fine. The ADMS console seems to also be working fine. I can do all the routine tasks in both programs. The problem is only in Inventor.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

The problem is fixed. I went to Tools/Add-Inns/ and right clicked in the menu. The "Show Hidden Members" appeared and I clicked it. This made "EDM Addin" visible in the list of add-ins. After loading it, I was able to log into Vault within Inventor. Everything works fine now!

Thanks for your suggestions.
