pipe network

Ok, here goes, I am having trouble swapping parts through my pipe network on an older job. I recently received a new computer and I am trying to edit a large storm and sanitary system project. I still have limited access to my old computer and I can edit the project through that machine but it happens to be a coworkers station now. I can view all my utility runs and I can view my parts list and both seem fine. when I try swapping part it does not change. I also cant edit the sump of any structure. I have already checked the path of the "setnetworkcatalog" for the pipes catalog and even copied from old computer to new computer and still nothing. I also have tried deleting my parts list to create a new parts list but that didn't work at all. when I go to add parts all I see is grid lines with no data. Any ideas are appreciated. Thanks in advance

Have you tried the PARTCATALOGREGEN to update your pipes and structures?

Thank You for your response. I tried and got this:

Not sure what version you are using but we've had nothing but issues with pipe networks in 2016.

The catalog path is probably different. Check the path on the old machine and make sure the new ones have the same catalog

Thanks again for your responses. I am working in 2011 for this project, the jobs been around for a while. I have verified the path under "setnetworkcatalog" if that's what you were referring to about part catalog. My problem is we have a few projects left under 2011 and just know that I'm going to have to revise more pipe networks. re-install is not an option on account of Autodesk support.

Ok, I replaced the entire C3D 2011 folder that includes the pipe catalog from the my old computer and still nothing. I did notice a message at the command promt that I must not have seen.

 

"reregistering the control.ERROR: Calculation Failed with Part Table

AeccCircularPvcPipe_Imperial"

 

I did a quick lookup on this but don't think I feel comfortable enough to mess with registry. Any suggestions are appreciated.
