[-FDC-]

I am getting following error after updating to 2018.3 this morning (I didn't care but my material browser isn't working anymore):

DBApplication error

Thanks to jacob from the support team.

Renaming the local language folder  (FR-fr to FR-fr---whatever) seems to have trick P&ID errors: C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Revit 2018\AddIns\PnIDModeler

here is the full reply I got:

Hi Jean-Marc,

Thank you for letting me know, 

We've had similar reports recently, and are trying to find one fix for it all without having to wait for a service rollout. Could you try and rename the language folder under “C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Revit 2018\AddIns\PnIDModeler“ which is its default path.

E.g. for French rename “fr-FR“folder for German to “fr-FR--”, and you will get the English version of P&ID modeler. 

Please let me know if it gets rid of the P&ID modeller error, 
 

Best regards,

Jacob Westergaard

it is conter intuitive but upon going through the process of uninstalling Revit you will get the option to repair or re-install @Anonymous

[-FDC- · Accepted solution]

Go to control panel.

Click on "programs and Features" (windows 10).

Search and click on Revit 2018.

Then click "uninstall/change".

Now you see the repair option.

Hi @Viveka_CD, 

I managed to get rid of the PnID Modeler error by renaming the folders; however that one still occurs every time I open Revit:

I tried to repair Revit a few times with no luck. Should I change something in the config file? 

Thank you, 
Ana

Just replaced the config file. 
Not entirely sure if I see the Accept as Solution button. Can you point me at where to look for it : )

[Viveka_CD]

No worries @ana.lyubenova 

Renaming the Revit.exe is already an accepted solution on page one!

Have a good one!

I recently updated to Revit 2018.3 and got the same error as the previous people so I clicked on the article suggested and uninstalled collaboration for Revit 2018, following the steps in the article. When I click on the download link you provided it takes me to collaboration for Revit 2015 & 2016. Now I have no idea where to get the program I need for 2018? Any help would be great thanks.
