Strange Response to Export DWG for any view - Student License rvt 2019

Anonymous — Tue, 28 Apr 2020 09:35:49 GMT

Good morning Guys Do you know if the License for students may affect the export of Sheets or View of my project?

It has always been saying : is not possible to publis the views. DWG is ever 0 kb and sometimes It says that the plan is open in some revit or software even if I close each dwg , autocad... this is the problem ID.

The warniong message doesnt help so much...

Hello @Anonymous, thank you for the question!

I wouldn’t expect the error you are seeing to be related to the student license.

Have you tried creating a new project (using one of the default templates), and then exporting some new simple geometry (like a few walls) to DWG?

I still encounteing this problem...THe export doesn t work.. It says or:

It wasn t possible to publish the following views...or it is not possible to export like that beacuse the file is open or in file read mode but there is no file open in dwg autocad. Each export born from this error seems a bug. When you scroll in the DWG its size is 0 kb: you cannot even delete them beacuse it says that it is open in Revit...for me is unreasonable.

Could you check that in this photo screenshot? I can post a sample file ...but i don't know how to cope with the fact that my RVT 2019 is specific and has its own student license...

Hello @Anonymous, Are you only seeing this error for the current project or do you also see this when creating a new project?

Another thing to test would be to create a copy of the project in a new local empty folder, and retry (if the original location was on a network, this would eliminate that from the environment,and if there were permission issues with the original location, a newly created folder may work better).

Hi,

A couple of questions in addition to @Lance.Coffey

1. Can you save the Revit project file itself?

2. Another Revit project file, can they export a dwg?

3. Is it related to specific views/sheets or all?

4. Do you export to a network? Does anybody else have dwg's open (although the 0Kb would be strange then!)

5. are DWG's linked into the model (they may have corrupt/complex data)

6. Have you tried opening the Revit file with Audit on? (If workshared also create new locals and clear Temp dir.)

7. All updates of Revit installed?

Also found another thread on this:

What differences did you encounter with new projects?
