Sending/Receiving project [Solved]


Hello!

How to send my whole project? Simply moving the project cataloge does not seem to work.

Thanks!

Hi Erik,
as you already figured out it is not enough only to move or copy the projectfolder *.prj from one computer to another.
If you like to transfer the data that way you secondary should run Nemetschek Services 2009 and use a Hotline Tool from the menu Services.
The name of the tool is reorg: Re-organize the project manager.
The Option you have to select: Restore project management file.

Instead of this method I usually would suggest to do the process in a different way. Here a short description of the alternative:

To backup a project:
#1 Run Nemetschek Services 2009
#2 Select a Backup path from the menu Configuration
#3 From the menu DataBackup select Create > Entire folders > Projects
#4 Select the project for the backup

To restore a project:
#1 Run Nemetschek Services 2009
#2 Select a Backup path from the menu Configuration
#3 From the menu DataBackup select Import > Projects
#5 Select the project for the import
#6 Follow the import dialoges

Hello!

I tried to imprort one of my old projects (made with AP09) with service 2011. I get the message that the folder does not contain any appropriate backups! I tried the tool "convert data to current version", but nothing changed.

Thanks!

Hi Erik,

I think the problem is that you didn´t set the right Backup path in the Nemetschek Services 2011 before you tried to import the project into the version 2011.

Maybe this short discription will help:

#1 Look for the folder where you backuped the projects from version 2009
#2 Run Nemetschek Services 2011
#3 Select as a Backup path from the menu Configuration the folder with the version 2009 project backups
#4 From the menu DataBackup select Import > Projects
#5 Select the project for the import
#6 Follow the import dialoges
