ModelCheck cannot start

Hello All!

I'm trying to use ModelCheck (with Creo 8.0.5.0), but all it does is just these messages:
ModelCHECK - Unable to determine loadpt directory
ModelCHECK is disabled.

 

What I've checked / set: 
- ModelCheck component is installed
- config.pro contains both "modelcheck_enabled (yes)" and "modelcheck_dir"

- "mcdir" env. variable added
- I use Creo in English, but I also tried the lang=c env. variable

- the custom ModelCheck directory contains the "config" folder

 

What (else) must be done to make the ModelCheck work?

Thank you in advance!

Hi @TL_rookie

 

Couple of questions which may help debugging this issue,

 

1. Is Creo installed locally? 

2. Are you using some script to start application?

3. Test the issue by simply removing the config file. 

4. If Creo is installed under Program files, try reinstalling application in some other location (e.g. C:\PTC), if possible. 

5. Is machine OS is English?

 

Thanks.

Hello Mahesh,

 

Thanks!

Here are the answers:

1. Is Creo installed locally? --- yes

2. Are you using some script to start application? --- no

3. Test the issue by simply removing the config file. --- you mean remove the config.pro what is used by default? Makes no difference.

4. If Creo is installed under Program files, try reinstalling application in some other location (e.g. C:\PTC), if possible. --- will try, but how can it effect anything?

5. Is machine OS is English? --- no

Hi @TL_rookie 

 

4. If Creo is installed under Program files, try reinstalling application in some other location (e.g. C:\PTC), if possible. --- will try, but how can it effect anything?

- This will confirm that it is not something related to permissions or something like that

5. Is machine OS is English? --- no

- Which language? 

 

Remove MC_DIR if it is already set and have only config option modelcheck_dir. Also, make sure that the value of config option is up to folder containing config directory (do not include config directory).

IN addition to this check license as well in session to confirm ModelCHECK license is in session (File > Help > System information)

 

Thanks.
