Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

Hi to all,

One of my friend inquire about this problem he encounter.

Usually, when exiting the P6 with open project and trying to re-open again P6, the display will show the project that was left opened before exiting.

Suddenly, when exiting the P6 with open project and trying to re-open again P6, the display will show different project that was been openned previously a couple of days.

But when using another username, there is no problems and it opens as usual.

I inquire about this problem with the IT department but was not able to find the solutions.

By the way, P6 is installed in a server. The user is a poweruser.

Please share the solutions if ever somebody experienced similar situation.

 

 

Thanks in advance.

 

Raymund

Nadia,

The error could have been due to the layout created from an latter version of P6 and to be imported into an earlier version.

The layout might have some data fields that earlier version of P6 does not recognized.

Hi all,

I would like to report an error happened some days ago to a colleague of mine.

In Primavera P6 Project Management
Release: 7.0 Service Pack 3

A layout was exported from standalone and imported in P6 client the following error happened:

Exception EconvertError in module PM.exe at 0000B30A UDF_G3 is not a valid floating point of value.

The only solution was to uninstall and re-install Primavera.

Does anyone had this error?

I was looking for the reasons in oracle portal but no information found at the moment.

Thanks for helping.

Ronald,

Thanks for the feed back.

Nobody uses the username and also another user in the same network experienced it.

I am sure it is a Database issue but nobody in the IT dept can manage to solve the problem.

 

To All IT experts,

 

Calling all IT database experts to please share your solution to this problem.

 

Thank you.

Raymund,

Perhaps someone else is logging into P6 using your username?
