Can't check out a file via PrimalScript

Post by Aubrey »

I have been using 2009 for several years, and it worked great. I upgraded to 2011, and now I can no longer check out files through PrimalScript. I have to manually check them out in ChangeVue and manually check them back in. How can I fix that?

If you look at Tools - Options - Source Control - General in PrimalScript, is SAPIEN ChangeVue selected as provider?

Can you provide a little more information on why you cannot check them out in PrimalScript? Are you getting an error message or is the menu item disabled? Are you using a project or are you using single files in a connected folder?

If I go to Tools-Source Control and click Check out, it used to check the file out. Also, I could just start typing in the file and it would ask me if I wanted to check the file out. Now it doesn't ask me if I want to check out, and if I tell it I want to check the file out, it does not check the file out. There are no error messages. I have a project.

In that folder where your files are, is there a file called
"primalscript.scc" ?

Right click on the workspace node and select "Connect to Source Control". Select the proper repository and type in the name of the project you use in ChangeVue.
That should create that file and establish that connection.
