Dynamo Player Crash Error

Anonymous — Fri, 19 Jan 2018 05:13:35 GMT

Hi All,

I've encountered a strange error with regards to the Dynamo Player functionality from within Revit,

I'm running Revit version 2018.2 and Dynamo for Revit version 1.3.2

For some strange reason when I click on the Dynamo Player file button in Revit, the software lags for a bit, opens up the player and it then just disappears and then the Dynamo player button is grey'd out.

I have tried to uninstall both the Revit and Dynamo software to rectify this issue but to no avail,

Has anyone else encountered and found a fix for this error?

Kind regards,

Hello @Anonymous,

Try this:

if the player windows is off-screen somehow you can try to delete cache folder located here :
C:\Users\ <usename>\AppData\Local\dynamoplayer\
If that’s the issue it will reset player window position to default.

I seem to be having the same or similar problem. I'm running Revit 2017.2, and Dynamo 1.3.2. Were you able to find a solution?

When I start Dynamo Player, the player icon grays out, the player pops up for a few seconds, then it closes. However, on my computer after the Dynamo Player closes, the player icon becomes available again.

I have tried deleting the User\App Data as suggested by @robert.klempau. A new set of files is created in the App Data folder, but the player still crashes.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Frank

Hi Frank,

I managed to get the issue sorted by completely uninstalling the Revit software and then reinstalling it,

Hope this brings you success with Revit 2017.2!

Kind regards,

Hi Robert,

Thanks for the reply,

I did not try the solution you suggested as I managed to sort out the issue with the uninstall and reinstall of the Revit software,

From Franks' reply below it seems that it did not solve the issue,

Kind regards,
