In order to run properly, CAESAR II needs a configuration file (caesar.cfg). As part of the installation process, a default configuration file is created and stored in the System directory (c:/programdata/intergraph cas/caesarii/11.00/system). Note that CAESAR II 2019 is Version 11.00.
The CAESAR II Configuration Module runs at the end of the installation and this module creates that default caesar.cfg file. The Configuration Module requires (Microsoft) .Net to run. If there are issues with .Net, the Configuration Module won't start and you won't have that default configuration file. This is an issue for your IT group to resolve.
To get you up and running, search your machine for a caesar.cfg file. Once found, copy this to the System directory for 2019 (the location is above). Once you have made the copy, edit this caesar.cfg file with a text editor and change the version number at the top. (If the version number here mismatches with the version of CAESAR II, you'll constantly get warnings from the program.)
As an aside, note that any time you run the Configuration Module AFTER installation, the caesar.cfg file is written to the current data directory. This allows different working (data) directories to be configured differently for different projects. If a specific data directory does not contain a caesar.cfg file, the default from the System directory is used.
You will need to resolve the problem with .Net and the Configuration Module. If I'm right, and the issue is .Net, the Static Load Case Editor won't run either - which means you can't perform an analysis.
If you continue to have issues, open a Support Request on Smart Support and have Technical Support get involved.
