More accurate message about the corruped link than is currently provided

More accurate message about the corruped link than is currently provided

In one of the support cases the user had a problem with opening the central model from BIM 360 Docs. The problem was a corrupted link. The error message was as follows:

 

"A serious error has occurred. It is strongly recommended that you use Save As
to save your work in a new file before continuing."

Then clicking on Save File And Continue will gives another warning:

 

"Load cancelled"

I think it would be better if, when opening the model, there was information which link exactly is corrupted. In the journal file, the GUID models appear so we have a starting point. In this case the model had only 2 links. But when the project contains of tens or even hundreds of links the problem is much bigger. I believe it will be possible to achieve this and implement it into Revit in the future.
