Revit 2016 - Cannot Open Local File

[Anonymous]

I am working in Revit 2016 and attempting to open a local file to work in as our design team does normally. However, when I go to open our model, I get error message: "Revit could not create a local file from the file location. This could be due to a network problem. You can try again or contact technical support." Other users on our team are able to access the project and write new locals on their machines with no issue. Any ideas as to why this may be happening?

Dear Jvelette,

Thank you for your query.

Are you doing anything programmatically, or just using the standard Revit user interface?

If you are not doing anything programmatically, please note that this discussion forum is dedicated to programming Revit using the Revit API.

Therefore, you cannot expect an answer to a question such as yours relating to installation, product usage or end user support issues here.

You should try one of the non-API Revit product support discussion forums instead for that:

The people there are much better equipped to answer your question than us programming nerds.

I hope this clarifies.

Thank you for your cooperation and understanding.

Best regards,

Jeremy
