Error Message
The Primavera Software Development Kit (SDK) is Not Installed on the Schedule Service Server.
Solution
If you are using the Primavera P6 Software Development Kit (SDK) as a source for your schedule system, you must install the SDK on the Smart Construction server. The Primavera P6 SDK setup maps the ODBC Data Source name with the associated database name.
When installing the Primavera P6 SDK for version 15.x and above, you must perform the following additional tasks:
-
If you are using an Oracle database, you must install both the 32-bit and the 64-bit Oracle clients on the server.
-
You must add the Primavera P6 SDK installation location to the Path system variable on the server.
-
On the server, go to Control Panel > System > Advanced System Settings > Environment Variables > System variables.
-
Refer to the Primavera P6 documentation for more information on configuration.
-
-
The Primavera P6 user must have the View All Global Project Data via SDK security setting selected in Primavera P6 if using the SDK as a data source.
-
If you are using Primavera P6 Web Services as your scheduling system source, you do not need to install the SDK.
For detailed information about installing the Primavera P6 SDK, refer to your Primavera P6 documentation.
Primavera support for its SDK is limited. While the majority of implementations using
the SDK are successful, issues might be encountered that Primavera does not support.
It might be necessary to use an alternative data source as the integration method
between Primavera and Smart Construction: you can connect through the Primavera P6
Web Services, or you can import your exported Primavera schedule (as an XML file)
into Smart Construction.
