How to Avoid and resolve the problem?
Solution:
Something has happened in the database of this module. The library data has appeared to be decoupled from the module. To fix the issue, reset the library data.
Instructions to reset the library data:
1. Select the "More Options" button in the upper left corner of the screen, and press the "Highlight incomplete flanges" option. This should show color on the tabs where data is incomplete (i.e. Gasket tab is brown)
2. Select the "Analysis" Tab, change "Analysis Method" setting to a different value.
3. Select the "Flange" Tab, change the "Flange / Bolt Dimensions" setting to a different value (ex. NS).
4. Re-select the "Analysis" Tab, change "Analysis Method" setting back to the original settings.
5. Re-select the "Flange" Tab, change all values back to their original settings.
6. Select the "Pipe" tab, reset the "Pipe material library" and "Pipe material" back to the original settings.
7. At this point the "Gasket" tab and other tabs that were incomplete should be grey now.
8. Re-select the "Analysis" tab, check those flanges to be analyzed and press the "Analyze" button in the top right corner of the screen.
Note: the newer version of AutoPIPE V8i 09.06.xx.xx and higher does not display this error message.
