Multiple Solibri Versions

JSN

I used to keep older versions installed, just in case to be able to quickly switch back and test if there is an issue solely occuring in the latest release. However, since a while I can’t execute those legacy versions anymore as I get the following error - not just on my machine. Did anything change?

Did you try changing the vmoptions to have a smaller value for -Xmx property

Does not have an effect.

@JSN Can you try to uninstall and download the version you tried to launch from Solibri Solution Center? There are some older versions available.

Well the thing is before I update the latest version in the \SOLIBRI dir I always used to make a backup by adding the suffix of the version to the folder. Mainly because I wanted to have a backup of the dependencies and because I wanted to preserve the original dir always for the latest version to keep the links (also for maven and so on). And this procedure used to work for many years, but not any more since a couple of weeks. So yeah, installing it again does work but what changed that a manual re-install is necessary now?

By backup do you mean that you copied the old directory or just renamed it? We tested and the latter works. If you copy to a new folder, it doesn’t work.

Good question. Will test it out next time!
