    thanks dudes
  • Dear Corrado
    thanks for your reply

    so what should we do if we want to upgrade the windows from 7 ??
  • I would do one of the following:

    1) Move to E3D 3.1
    2) Stay on Windows 7
    3) Move to Windows 10 and create a Windows 7 Virtual Machine
  • There could be hundreds of reasons, especially when Microsoft would release a new Hot Fix.
    As you and your Company  have probably been informed by Aveva, PDMS will not last forever.
    So now or then the time will come to migrate to E3D.
    If a Company decides to migrate to Win10 why shouldn't do it for E3D and any other kind of software?
    Are you still using Autocad R12? ;-)
  • thanks, dear Corrado

    but what would cause incompatibility between 12.1 and WIN.10?
  • Dear Corrado

    during this period we installed PDMS 12.1 SP.5 for a while to check if this error would be solved but surprisingly the PDMS also exits unwantedly (of course with lower occurrences) and this time we are facing with "database error: 538 ", I do not know what should I do with this problem ??
  • Have you tried running DICE with Aveva Administration?
  • Yes i did it and for the last occurrence of database engaged in exiting, there showed no structural error, meanwhile, it has happened in different projects.
  • To me that's something it should be fixed by DICE.
    Have you selected the "patch" option?
    It could also be due to some missing database (=16397)
