Problem With AG4 Canton Template Options

[Guest_xxmikexx_*]

Hi Denis,

A search of the forum for the keyword "Canton" didn't turn up anything on the issue below, which surprised me at first because the symptom I got was so fundamental that I didn't immediately see how anybody else could have avoided it. That being the case, it's probably simply a recent Canton AG4 template repackaging error of some kind as opposed to something wrong with the template as such.

What's happening is that if I try open the Westbound path file I'm presented with data that clearly relates to an eastbound trip, GroveCity-to-Interchange. And if I try to open the supposed Eastbound path, AG4 complains that it can't find "region 100", whatever that means. (I think that was the number.)

Don't get me wrong -- I'm thrilled to have the path that works, thanks for creating it. But my Canton life would be complete if I could run the other direction too. Any help you can give will be greatly appreciated, and thanks for tackling such a complex template on behalf of the rest of us.

thx,
Mike McCarthy

EDIT: I meant .csv file in paragraph two above, not path file.

Hi Mike,

I have reloaded the Canton template and have done some checking again. It has been a while since I have used it, so I will try to remember.

One thing you mention has been experienced in the past, related to the region 100 error. It did occur again this week.Again I can't figure it out since the 100 region number ( or others which may appear in similar messages) is present in the SWLTDBCantonLOCALS file. But this message appears only occasionally. It does the same with the YARDS template. When this happens, I usually exit the program and reload it and am able to load the template and create a SLG generated activity. I have been able to create activities this week with all four templates.

As to the paths mentioned (Interchange to Grove City or the other way) the SLG-generated act for the EB and WB uses the proper path direction.

In the package, there are one template for the EB and the WB. Each template has only one path and is set on the right direction. The other two are the LOCALS and the YARDS templates and they are the ones which generates occasionally this message.

I will try to look it again if I can find the issue which generates sometimes this message. But that shouldn't prevent the user to create successfully SLG acts.

Denis,

Did you try changing the Region 100 to something else like 100A or anything else different than what is in all the templates? I would try that and see if it follows along with the new Region ID.
