Libraries on server not recognized

Anonymous — Wed, 20 Nov 2013 05:50:31 GMT

I have added libraries to the Bim server and none of them are recognized in any of my projects (solo or shared) I am using archicad 16 on a Mac with Mavericks.
The libraries show up in the Bim server libraries manager.
when I try to add a library to a project it is gyred out and can not be selected
Hope someone can help me
Thanks,

Hello,

Do you have same ArchiCAD version on your
workstation than BIMserver, ie. not newer version
library on server?

If so, do you have same hotfix on both?

I have been having a problem similar with archicad 16 & 17 not finding libraries since I upgraded to Mavericks. In the library manager I unload this missing libraries, then go back to the project, return the library manager, individually add the missing libraries back in and reload the project. This has been pretty successful as a work around so far, though still irritating.

Guys, do you have Mavericks both on the server and the client? Going to test this in depth, just wanted to check what environment you have.

I am just a one man operation, I don't use the BIM server, just a stand alone installation

I'm not a Mac user but it sounds to me like your file path to the libraries has changed so Archicad is not finding them automatically.
