Upgrading From PipelineStudio 2.6 and Above

In order to migrate as many settings from a previous installation of PipelineStudio as possible you should install the latest release of PipelineStudio without uninstalling the previous release. For example if you have 2.8 installed and have added items to the equipment libraries, the easiest way of making the library data available in the new release is to allow the latest installer to backup any data that can be preserved. The installer will then make sure that this data is reinstated once the new release is installed.

Upgrading From Earlier Than PipelineStudio 2.6

If you are upgrading from a release of PipelineStudio earlier than PipelineStudio 2.6 you will need to manually uninstall the previous release before installing PipelineStudio 3.3.1. This can be done by opening the control panel and selecting the Add/Remove Programs option. From there you should uninstall the Excel Reporting Add-in for PipelineStudio (if installed) and from there uninstall PipelineStudio.

PipelineStudio Installation Known Issues

TZ Environment Variable Using the TZ environment variable may affect your simulation if the variable differs from the Windows Time Zone. When PipelineStudio is started it will inform you if there is a potential problem. Security Key Incompatible with Driver for hard bitlock device The symptom of this problem is that your PC fails to see the parallel port or USB Sentinel SuperPro security key. When you try to launch PipelineStudio with the parallel port or USB bitlock attached and your machine disconnected from the network you will see the following error message:

If you try to launch PipelineStudio with the parallel port or USB bitlock attached and your machine connected to the network you will see the following error message followed by the above message:

This message and similar messages for TGNETandTLNET and Tlnet is generated because the security key driver does not recognize the security key. This problem only occurs when using versions 7 or higher of the security key driver in conjunction with very old versions of the parallel port Sentinel SuperPro security keys with the batch number 9521L2202. The batch number can be found on the side of the bitlock. PipelineStudio 3.3.1 ships with version 7.5.0 of the security key driver and therefore if you see this problem with a standalone bitlock then you should contact StudioSupport for assistance. Network license manager connection If you connect to a network license manager over the LAN for licensing purposes the following dialogs might be shown if the registry settings are not correct.

Press ok to continue. Note that similar dialogs might appear for TGNETandTLNET and Tlnet, before the following dialog appears.

Press Cancel to continue. This is caused by the registry settings for the license server not being set correctly at the following location:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER -> Software -> Energy Solutions International -> PipelineStudio -> 3.3.1 -> Licensing -> License Servers

Correctly configured license server settings can be seen in the display below, where the network license manager is installed at IP address: 172.21.1.27.
