A serious error has occurred. Trying to open views.

[Anonymous]

Hi guys, looking for a bit of advice on an error I'm getting.  I can open the project, but when I try to open any of the views or sheets I get the error message below.

It's not the first time I've had this problem on this project, but last time when I ran audit on the structural file linked in that fixed the problem.  This time I've opened all the links, audited and purged them all.  Done the same to my model and I'm still unable to open any views.

Currently I work with five linked models, four architectural and one structural.  We also have our services split into four different models.  I'm getting this problem with all our models.

We've outcourced some of our Revit work recently, this included, these models have just come back in. I haven't worked on them recently but I don't think the problem is with our models, I think it's with the linked files, but I can't find which one. 

Other than audit and purge is there any way of finding out where the problem lies? Could it be something else entirely? I've checked the graphics card/video driver and there doesn't seem to be an issue there.

Any help would be much appreciated.  It's a huge project an it's all kicking off again tomorrow, this will be a disaster if I can't figure it out!

Hello,

You make sure there is a plenty of space on your windows drive and uninstall revit by its uninstaller and then install it again .

If my answer solved your problem , Please Kudo  and Accept as solution.

it is possible that it is happening at the linked models

confirm you are not attaching models as links and are using overlay.

confirm that the linked models do not have links in them.

the message is saying create a new model.

the corruption may be tough to track down so creating a new Central model may help.

keep an eye on the links as you reload them to confirm if they are causing the issue.

Uninstalling Revit would be a last resort effort.

I would recommend that with everyone working on the project gets out of Revit.

1 person will create a new Central model (using the latest saved Local model)

while opening the local model you will want to Detach from central and save worksets.

the model is now going to be saved as over the old central file, purge out and manage links of the new central model.

Synchronize and relinquish all mine and close Revit.

prior to creating a new local model delete all previous versions of all the users local models and support folders on their hard drives.
