Revit Server cant see rvt files

[jarod.tulanowski]

I have revit server 2015 up and kind of running. When I connect to the server i see folders and create and delete folders, but i dont see rvt files. I placed some of them manually and server just doesnt see it. man this is frustrating.

Open Detached and save your model to Revit Server instead of copying .rvt files with Window's File Explorer.

When models are saved to Revit Server they are not single .rvt files but a compilation of optimized files for the Revit Server environement. When saved to Revit Server the single .rvt files becomes a .rvt folder with the optimed files and folders within that.
