Product(s): Bentley Substation, Promis.e Version(s): through 08.11.13.140 Environment: N\A Area: ProjectWise Integration Subarea: N\A Problem Description When I try to attach a file as a reference, the standard file system explorer dialog opens instead of the Select CAD File dialog, so I cannot browse files stored in ProjectWise. The problem may also occur with File > Open or other tools. Steps to Resolve Ensure the [[Install the ProjectWise custom module for ProjectWise Explorer|custom module for ProjectWise Explorer is installed]] and the [[Setup]] > ProjectWise dialog is configured properly. If ProjectWise integration is installed and configured properly try the following. Option 1 Open [[Setup]] and select the ProjectWise tab. Clear the Enable ProjectWise integration check box, click OK . Close Bentley Substation/Promise. Open Bentley Substation/Promis.e. Open [[Setup]] and select the ProjectWise tab. Set the Enable ProjectWise integration check box, click OK . Option 2 Select Workspace > Configuration from the main pull down menus in Bentley Substation/Promis.e. Look for a PW_DISABLE_INTEGRATION variable. If it exists and is set to 1, that may be the problem. This would be coming from the pw.cfg file, found in a path like: C:\Program Files (x86)\Bentley\Substation V8i\Substation\config\appl\ or C:\Program Files (x86)\Bentley\promise V8i\promise\config\appl There is logic in the pw.cfg file that sets PW_DISABLE_INTEGRATION if it does not find what it likes. The following procedure resolved the problem for one user. Open pw.cfg in a text editor such as Notepad. Comment out the PW_DISABLE_INTEGRATION_FROM_DESKTOP=1 line by inserting a # at the beginning of the line if one is not present already: #PW_DISABLE_INTEGRATION_FROM_DESKTOP=1 Restart Bentley Substation/Promis.e See Also [[Install ProjectWise integration]] Original Author: Matt_P
