Problem:

How do I Install Bentley AutoPIPE CONNECT v.12.06 and higher.? 

Solution:

Notes:

1. This installation procedure may apply to more than one version, therefore just consider version number as a reference that can vary. 

2. There is a possibility that the computer may need to be restarted, therefore highly suggested to save all current work and close all running applications before continuing below. 

3. Average time to install

i. if all .Net file are currently NOT installed, approximately 25+ minutes

ii. if all .Net file are currently installed, approximately 10 - 12 minutes

4. This procedure assumes that SES Licensing has been installed and configured, If not please contact the license group to assist you.

5. User currently logged into the computer must have full Administration rights.

6. Suggest program installed by accepting all the default settings

7. Prefer that the application was NOT installed over a network connection; suggest that the EXE file is on the user's system before starting the installation.

8. If a previous version of AutoPIPE was installed on the current computer, suggest to uninstall:
       i.  all previous versions of AutoPIPE
       ii. " PCF to NTL translator
       iii. " ADLPipe to NTL translator

9. ***Important***Remember to always reset your profile if installing over an SES licensed version of the application (ex. v 12.0 and higher).

Installation:

Navigate to the *.EXE file downloaded using the download procedure.

Double click on the *.EXE  file (ex. Setup_AutoPIPEx86_12.06.00.048.exe) to start the installation process.

Note: Be patient while the application is installing as it is checking to verify programs already installed, verifying drive space, etc.. there may be periods when it appears nothing is happening. Give the system time. In the event the installation stops a warning / error will be presented. Just follow the prompts and be patient.
