Dear all;

I don’t have P3 installed on my PC. I’m trying to import a P3 file but P3e shows this massage:

"Unknown error reported by P3 engine"

Do anyone knows why is it happening??

Regards.

Hello all;
Read this reply.
Regards.

Hi

Check that the btrieve home directory is set OK.

It is possible that the default installation has set the btrieve home value to a directory where you do not have rights to create a file. The import then fails because the trace file cannot be opened.


There should be a utility on your PC called w32mkset which can be usedc to view and set the btrieve options.

Other than that I have seen this problem where the P3 files have a link to a graphic file that does not exist and where access rights are incorrectly set.

Good Luck

Hello Marcio

you need to have a P3 installed as well. When converting, P3ec will be prompting you to type the username and password in P3 before you can access those files.

I have already tried P3toP3econvert.exe but didn’t work.

Same error.
