Linking IFC's currently works spotty at the best of days. This is a fundamental part of the MEP workflow, it needs to just work. Please find one or multiple ways to not show this error.
I am an HVAC engineer, and so I depend on the links from the architects and structural engineers (in my town, usually from ArchiCAD and Tekla) to engineer our things. And loading that link works 1/3 times. We're struggling with this. Every. Single. Day. I am an experienced Revit user. I am what's called a "super user" in my company. I am the one the average Revit-capable engineer gets forwarded to when the first Revit-expert they called couldn't help. I write macros in C#, I write Dynamo-scripts, I use the RevitPythonShell on a daily basis as a working tool. I manage BIM360/ACC Projects. But I am not capable of simply loading an IFC link reliably. In my honest opinion, that means it's too hard. Please, Autodesk, I depend on this every single day, and so does almost every other engineer in the entire buildings division of every major consulting engineer firm. Please, don't bother making new features of any kind before you get IFC-links working reliably, or at the very least give us error messages we can work with!
And yes, we've tried deleting collaboration cache and deleting the IFC.RVT-files. We've tried many things, many times, and one thing that works perfectly one day or for one person, just won't work the next day or for other people in the project. Each new attempt takes hours, and then it's just the same the day after.
