IFC cannot write output file error

[Anonymous]

Hi,


I am trying to save a ifs file and i keep getting this error

"cannot write output file error"

I tried :
-saving as ifc and ifcxml
-saving only 1 element of the file
-saving with a simple name
-saving in desktop, server and dropbox
-rebuilding the 3d model before saving
-using archicad standard translators and my own
-opening a new file w default settings and saving a wall
-giving Archicad full disk access

none of this worked!!!

is anyone experiencing this? any solution?

thanks in advance
Luis

Hello,

What your translator ? https://helpcenter.graphisoft.com/user-guide/89325/
What is your aim ? https://helpcenter.graphisoft.com/user-guide/89335/
Do you check your element classifications before ? https://helpcenter.graphisoft.com/user-guide/89336/
Do you save your ifc model since a 3D view ?

An ifc is even more than a extension file. I invite you to check these points and tell us what you have done.

Thanks for your answer.

The problem was that the path to the EDM folder was broken and also that I had to give Archicad not only full access to the harddrive but also full accessibility on the mac system settings.

Having the same issues with my new MacBook and ArchiCAD26. Can't find where to set the "EMD-folder".... It's not to find in the dialogue "IFC Local Preferences"....
