Hi Guys~ question about auto-chunk file

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Community Member Microsoft Employee

I am using GP10.0 and Dexterity10.

After I created an auto-chunk file and copied it with extracted dictionary to GP directory, when I lanched GP, it didn't expand automatically. So, what's going on there? Because of the compatibility ID?

 

thx~

    Hi,

    Here's a long shot. Did you for sure spell the .set file correctly when you created your chunk?  The set file needs to be the same name as you indicated during auto-chunk or it won't auto 'unchunk'.

    one other possibility could be insufficient permissions on the folder for the user on the target machine. Just a thought..

    It very well could be the version check.  Try putting 

    SkipVersionChecks=TRUE
     in your Dex.ini file.
     Another thing that will cause it not to unchunk is if you are launching with a .set file NOT named Dynamics.set

    Hmm.  My first thought is that your chunk file name is too long.  I don't know about version 10.0, but on all previous versions if the chunk file name (before the .cnk) is longer than 8 characters, it will not install.  It just sits there, and sits there, until you rename it with a shorter name.

     Let me know if that fixes the problem.

     Thanks,
