Problem Description

In the December 2011 release of gINT v8i 8.30.03.77, a new feature hides the Design Application tabs (DATA DESIGN, REPORT DESIGN, and SYMBOL DESIGN) the first time the version is installed. This allows basic users to perform data entry, output, utilities and other common tasks in gINT.

If you will need to modify reports, database structures or other task that require you to use these tabs, they are simple to unhide.

Steps to Resolve

To do this, open the File menu System Properties option, and click the General tab. Unset the Hide Design Applications property (uncheck the box) and click OK.

The tabs will be visible immediately. This setting is preserved in your setup.gsh file, so future updates of the program will still have the Design Application tabs visible.

Design Applications can be hidden again in System Properties>General tab by rechecking the Hide Design Applications box. Design Applications tabs will remain visible in the current session of gINT, but will be hidden again the next time gINT is launched.

Error or Warning Message

The enterprise database specified '<Database_Name_Here'> exists, however it is not structurally valid.

Please select a different enterprise database.

 

How to Avoid

Option 1 gINT did not create the SQL enterprise database

If you try to create the database first and then upsize to it you will see the above message.  Delete the database and its associated files.  Do the upsize again.  gINT will create the database during the upsize process.

 

Option 2 The enterprise database has become damaged

 If your enterprise database has become damaged you could see the above message.  Restore it from a backup.

Problem Description

On Windows 7 and Vista, we have seen these problems:

  1. I added data to my project.  After leaving and returning to Input, the data I added is missing.
  2. I can open my gINT project or library, but in My Computer or Windows Explorer, when I browse to the folder the file is missing.
  3. On opening my project or library there is a message it is read-only.  No one else has this file open and the read-only property is not checked.

Reason

Prior to gINT V8i 08.3.x, gINT user files (project .GPJ's, library .GLB's, data template .GDT's, etc.) were installed with the gINT program files under C:\Program Files or C:\Program Files(x86).  In Windows Vista and Windows 7, these locations often have restrictions to prevent users from changing any files stored there.  This can cause the above behavior.

Steps to Resolve

Any gINT files you will be editing need to be moved to a different location, one where you know you have full control.  My Documents is often a good location if it is backed up regularly.  If not, then perhaps a network drive is best.  Sometimes it can be tricky to find all the files, as Windows will often move or copy the files to a different hidden location.  If this is the case, it will appear to gINT as if the files are in C:\Program Files when they are actually in this hidden location.  To find this hidden location do an Internet search for "find virtual store" and either "Windows 7" or "Vista", appropriate.

You can input in one type of units and output in the other and all of the functions to enable this process can be encapsulated in one form.

To incorporate this ability into your gINT project you will need to add two fields to the PROJECT table. One field identifies the units used in input; the other identifies the units of data to be output on reports.

User system data items will be created that will house the conversion factors when the input units do not match the output units.

Example from Help Topic
User System Data Example.jpg (77.21 KiB) Viewed 45 times

In report design, you can then call these user system data items into use for columns and other entities that need conversion. 

For example the lithology column has a depth expression and text expression that can call user system data items by name. In the depth expression to report mixed units, you want to convert input units to output units. In the text expression, you want to add the correct output unit name or abbreviation. The User System Data Items you call in these expressions handle that conversion or unit name according to the values in the two PROJECT table fields.

Phil, many many many thanks for that. I'd been banging my head against this for ages to no effect. It makes sense that the prompt needs to be formatted to the same type as the comparison field.

In Access it is stored as a property of the field, and in SQL Server it is stored in a table created to store field settings.  In Access you can edit field properties using DAO, in SQL Server just use SQL statements.

The Datgel Administrator Tool - Find or Set Property Tool allows you to batch edit field. table and database properties.

www.datgel.com/DatgelAdministratorTools.aspx

The Datgel CPT Tool has a feature to change the unit property and convert the data between units, say kPa to tsf.  www.datgel.com/DatgelCPTTool.aspx

hello

i used bently geostructural v 16

i used cantilivier wall

when i see to program analysis the wall at rest is very good and result is accurate specially k

but when i used it to analysis in passive or active 

i print the result the k active or passive always equal 1 and it doesnt change

so i make the file twice and not good with me

so i worry in program effective and i doesnt find solution

please help  me or give me hint

thanks in advance for any help

Thank you Katie, better late than never and i really appreciate your help.

It's true i used permanent instead of seismic and i believe this option use different coefficients but even using seismic the results are still not real.

I will send you a link with a section calculated using a pseudo static horizontal force (manual calculated) and the same section after deleting the force and used in the seismic stage a 0.28 coefficient. In the first one the stage (using the horizontal force) is permanent and in the last is seismic. I hope you will find where is my mistake.

Thank you one more time

Forum Post: Date SQL Query Not Working

$

Hi all,

Phil Wade helped me with the SQL for this query the other week and it worked fin, until now! It goes like this:-

A non-SI based gINT setup for concrete cube testing. Data about each cube is stored in the CUBEDATA table, including Date created, date received and date tested and the cube type. The results of the test are stored in the child table CUBERESULTS, single row of data for both parent and child data. At Output, a User Report Variable prompts for the date a cube was tested, and only outputs any cube results that were tested on that date.

This all works fine. The area I'm having a huge problem with is the data in part of the report header. In the header I want to list the Date Sampled, the Date Received, the Date Tested and the Sample type of all the results on that report. I have been doing this by using the setup below:-

Date Sampled: <<SqlList(,Select Distinct [CUBEDATA].[CubeDateS] From [CUBEDATA] Where_ 
[CUBEDATA].[PointID] = '<<PointID>>' And [CUBEDATA].[CubeTestDt] =_
#<<Format(<<Report Var.Prompt>>,dd/mm/yyyy)>>#)>>
Date Received: <<SqlList(,Select Distinct [CUBEDATA].[CubeDater] From [CUBEDATA] Where_
[CUBEDATA].[PointID] = '<<PointID>>' And [CUBEDATA].[CubeTestDt] = _
#<<Format(<<Report Var.Prompt>>,dd/mm/yyyy)>>#)>>
Date Tested: <<Report Var.Prompt>>
Sample Type: <<SqlList(,Select Distinct [CUBEDATA].[CubeSampT] From [CUBEDATA] Where_
[CUBEDATA].[PointID] = '<<PointID>>' And [CUBEDATA].[CubeTestDt] = _
#<<Format(<<Report Var.Prompt>>,dd/mm/yyyy)>>#)>>

This has been working fine up until today, when our lab manager made me aware that the only data that was outputting in the header was the Date Tested.

After much faffing around I have discovered that everything works fine if the date is 12th of the month or greater, but outputs nothing (except the date tested)
if the date is between 1st and the 11th. This obviously has something to do with date formatting but I have no idea what.

All fields in the Data Template are format of dd/mm/yy, along with the prompt.

Help!!! :D

Different derivatives of SQL require different formats.  I think YYYY-MM-DD is correct for SQL Server.

I am curious whether it is possible to edit a field's system of units property through gINT Rules.  I know there are built in GridData properties such as: gINTRules.GridData.CellColor() gINTRules.GridData.FieldName() gINTRules.FieldCaption() gINTRules.GridData.HideField MyTableName, MyFieldName, True  etc.   It would be helpful to let the user see the units of a given field based on the system of units selected elsewhere.  This could also be accomplished by editing the caption, but the only function I have found for the caption is read-only.    Thanks for the help!   Ryan

Hi ben, I read this and tried to reproduce your problems. I believe, in your analysis, you kept your stage settings at "permanent". You need to change them to seismic so that, depending on your analysis code (LRFD, Euro code, factor of safety, etc.   I believe you are using the default EuroCode) the correct factors are applied. If you change your stage settings to Sesimic it should correct your problem. Regards, Katie
