Issue:
Working with Infrastructure Map Server 2017 (AIMS) and like to publish data from AutoCAD Map 3D 2018 and 2019.
Causes:
The latest version of Autodesk Infrastructure Map Server is 2017, but you are using AutoCAD Map 3D 2018 and 2019.
Solution:
The answer depends on the FDO connections that your drawings contain.
The following FDO connections in the drawings can be successfully published from Map 3D 2018 and 2019 to Infrastructure Map Server 2017 and correctly displayed in the web layouts without extra effort.
FDO SDF
FDO SHP
FDO SQLite
FDO MySQL
FDO Oracle
FDO PostgreSQL
FDO SQL Server
FDO WFS
FDO ArcSDE
For drawings with FDO ODBC, FDO Raster and FDO WMS connections You can publish these three connections in Map 3D 2018, but they cannot work in Infrastructure Map Server 2017. To make these three FDO connections work in Infrastructure Map Server 2017, download the attached hotfix and follow these installation procedures:
- Back up all the related files before applying this hotfix.
- Go to the folder C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Autodesk Infrastructure Map Server 2017\Bin\FDO and replace all the related files with the files in the hotfix package.
- If you have installed Autodesk Infrastructure Studio, you also need to go to the C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Autodesk Infrastructure Studio 2017\FDO folder and replace all the related files with the files in the hotfix package.
- On the Windows Services panel, restart the Infrastructure Map Server 2017 service.
For drawings that contain AutoCAD objects Drawings in AutoCAD 2018 format, which was introduced in the Map 3D 2018 and 2019, cannot be recognized by Infrastructure Map Server 2017. Therefore, to have the objects work correctly in Infrastructure Map Server 2017, save your drawings in the AutoCAD 2013 drawing format.
Enterprise industry models 2018:Since you are using Map 3D 2018, no matter if the database is Oracle or SQL Server, the existing MAPSYS may have been upgraded to 2018 version. You don’t need to make any changes. Your application extension in Infrastructure Map Server 2017 is still working with the upgraded MAPSYS. Also, industry models created in Map 3D 2018 can be published to Infrastructure Map Server 2017, and the corresponding web functions in the application extension will work well.
Enterprise industry model 2019:With Map 2019 we have new MAPSYS and data structure of industry models. The projects still can be published to AIMS 2017 and the corresponding web functions in the application extensions will work well too.
