Inventor Proect File Missing Message

[yannicknielsen]

Hey there

Yesterday I got an error stating that a project file was missing and that Inventor would no longer search for it.

The same happened to my colleague, and we didn't think any more about that, since it was stating that the name was "s".

Today we found out that one of our folders is actually missing and that it was that project.

We then decided to try and delete another project file, and again, it stated that the name was "s".

I'll attach a picture of the warning. When that message popped up, it was supposed to state "Abeto Teknik", but as I said, it didn't.

Please fix that so we actually know what's missing rather than just "s" 🙂

I don't believe SP1 will fix this issue. Fixing UI issue via a hotfix / service pack is not impossible but very expensive, since we usually provide a single binary that can be applied to all languages. I think our current target delivery date is sometime in the next year, as a part of a full release, but we cannot commit anything here.

Please contact your official support channel if you need more detailed info.

Thank you,

Sami,

I think there is another issue here. I believe this message comes up as a result of the Temp project files being deleted after Vault based commands such as Copy Design, Rename and Visualisation file creation have been performed. After the temp file is cleaned up, Inventor thinks it is missing and subsequently displays the error message this thread is based on. 

So Inventor/Vault isn't cleaning up the Temp project files in such a way as to not produce the missing project file error

then secondly, Inventor is incorrectly displaying the name of the missing project file. We are seeing this an awful lot from our Vault customers.

Please can you do some further testing internally with this in mind?
