Solution: Multi-user environments require a stable, low-latency LAN connection. Wi-Fi connections or remote VPNs with high latency (above 10ms) can cause connection timeouts. Switch to a wired Ethernet connection. For remote operations across locations, consider using Tekla Model Sharing instead of the traditional Multiuser Server.
Tekla Structures is the industry standard for Building Information Modeling (BIM). It allows structural engineers, detailers, and fabricators to design massive, data-rich models. While modern workflows heavily utilize cloud-based collaboration via Tekla Model Sharing, many organizations still rely on the for localized, real-time team collaboration.
Check the xs_server_ .log file, usually located in C:\ProgramData\TeklaStructuresServer , to diagnose connection failures.
Verify the file signature and version details (v2.50) before initiating the download. Installation and Configuration Server-Side Installation
Tekla Structures多用户系统基于TCP/IP网络运行，允许多名用户同时访问并工作于同一个模型。它的组成结构清晰明了：
Significant improvements in preventing "model locking" issues.
By default, the software installs to C:\Program Files (x86)\Tekla Structures Multiuser Server .
Version 2.5 is a significant release as it introduced compatibility with newer operating systems and updated database engines (moving away from older Firebird or Sybase implementations used in version 2.4 and earlier).
The multi-user server functions as a lightweight service (running as xs_server.exe ) that coordinates changes across the team. Tekla User Assistance Real-time Collaboration
: A static IP address is highly recommended for the server host to prevent connection drops.
