Solution ID: prim27783
Database aliases are missing after upgrading from 4.0 to 4.1.
Status: Reviewed
Version(s): 4.0, 4.1



Problem: Database aliases are missing after upgrading from 4.0 to 4.1.
Fix:

If you find the upgrade process has left you with no database aliases on the Primavera Client, it may be due to a missing configuration file.


The database aliases are stored in two locations



  • C:\Program Files\Primavera\Project Management\PM.ini
       (The above path and filename would vary for each Methodology Manager and Portfolio Analysis applications.)

  • C:\Program Files\Borland\Common Files\BDE\IDAPI32.CFG

Before uninstalling Primavera, simply make copies of these two files and store in a safe location.


If you find the upgrade process has left you with no database aliases, restore the backups of the two files above.
