The job file I've been using for my current job won't load after I put the 6.2.1 upgrade on my computer.
All was fine before using 6.2, not it gives two errors while loading.
An error occurred while transferring Parasolid information
Then I press OK to get past the error message and another comes up
There was an error after opening the JOB file
Now what do I do. I guess I'm screwed. How can I downgrade back to 6.2. I tried and it refused to allow the downgrade. I tried the repair option but got the same result with the same two errors.
OK Clint,
Here's the file that won't open in 6.2.1 but did open in 6.2
I'm not having problems with any other file opening in the new version other than this one. I had just been using the file just before the upgrade and when I shut things down I didn't do another save so it should have been fine. I downloaded the new version and opened and verified and I made sure that the previous version was not running. Not my first rodeo here. Thanks for looking.
Sorry for getting back to you so late. We can't open it as well, or dig in to get anything out of it. Do you save your jobs to a network location, a cloud service such as DropBox or Google Drive, or do you save locally to the computer?
Everything is saved local. I've learned over the years to save save save in case there's a crash. And with this one I had been saving it every time I made a change. As far as I know, it was working before I upgraded. After that nada.
But it's all good now, I've made it through both jobs that were nested and didn't need to get into it again anyway.
I guess I have to go back to my normal of NEVER UPGRADE IN THE MIDDLE OF A JOB. Because that has served me well.
Just hope they don't ask for extra shelves because they'll have to measure them to let me know what size they are
For whatever reason the information didn't all get packaged in the save. It most likely wasn't because of the update of eCabinets. More likely it is that something got in the way of the save is it was all being put together and it was never saved with it. I say likely because I don't know everything, so anything could happen.
Going along with the save save save (which is great practice), I preach the save many, save often. Have multiple copies and save often. Every time I make a design change that differs from current (rearrange cabinets, change material, change color, etc.), I save as a new job or new cabinet. Then I always have something to fall back on. I tend to have back ups of my back ups' back ups. When I finish a project (if I ever do ), all the files get dumped into a folder and zipped up to minimize storage space.
