Error in running PGSuper from the CLI #8

Open cesarecaoduro opened 2 months ago

cesarecaoduro commented 2 months ago

Morning, I am an AECOM employee looking after our global automation an integration team (can't use my AECOM account to post an issue, my email is cesare.caoduro@aecom.com).

I am trying to test PGSuper using the CLI as mentioned in the documentation. https://www.wsdot.wa.gov/eesc/bridge/software/Documentation/PGSuper/8.0/ug_command_line_options.html

Specifically trying to use the command line BridgeLink.exe /PGSuper /TxA Route66.pgs Route66.txt 2 ALL (of course changing the names)

But I keep running in the same error image

To me it doesn't seem that I am doing anything wrong with the command I am passing.

On the other side it does work if I use the /TestR option, but I can't see a lot of documentation on this.

We are also looking at the possiblity to extend PGSuper to automate additional tasks, would love to be able to discuss with someone about it. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!

@cesarecaoduro There appears to be an error in the documentation. If you omit /PGSuper from the command line, it should run. BridgeLink will be able to figure out the application based on the file type.

We haven't had much interest in an automation interface. I'd be happy to discuss what that might look like.

Confirming this is working...thanks!

@RickBrice assuming there is no way currently run PGSuper in a docker without the need of UI?

RickBrice commented 2 months ago

Not entirely sure what you mean by a "docker" but PGSuper does need its UI.

cesarecaoduro commented 2 months ago

I was hoping to be able to run PGSuper in a docker container, basically a cloud VM that does not provide you any UI.
