I have bought a new computer and copied my old Archicad files to a backup hard drive. After reloading Archicad on the new computer and copying the job files from my backup, I get the following message upon opening one of the old projects on my new computer. The project is current and I need to finish it.

"User break at line 53 in the 2D script of file MASTER_GDL_XXX.gdl. File not found, can't open for input while operating on file 'SITEB.TXT'.
File not found, can't open for input while operating on file 'SITEB.TXT'."

I am a heavy Cadimage user and also use Architerra. These have been reloaded onto my new computer.

The error message does not occur when I start a new project so that it must be a corruption of some sort in the existing file. The fact that it didn't happen in the original installation but only in the reload puzzles me.

Any suggestions?

Are your old libraries loading?

Hello Dwight

Yes, I've loaded everything as it was before and they are all working properly.

That Master GDL file is trying to open a file called SITEB_TXT.
Did you also have that file in your loaded libraries?
If you don't AC will probably not give you a warning but it will cause this error message.

Thanks Laszlo. Where do I find that file?

It is not an ArchiCAD file.
Some Add-On or GDL object must have created it.
Should be on our computer somewhere, I guess.
