Issue with Archicad to Revit Export

Helio_Avila
Contributor

A consultant recently requested an .rvt file from a colleague because they were unable to properly import the IFC file. However, when the team member tried to export the file as a Revit Project, they encountered the following error message:

RVT Export Error. Code: 2015. Description: Connection timeout.

Any ideas?

I managed to export it, but I had to save a copy to the local server and export the RTV file from there. We've been seeing a lot of instability with BIMcloud SaaS lately, which might be impacting save times. That said, I didn't try saving to my desktop, but I bet that would have worked too.

Connection timeout?

Where are you trying to export the RVT file to?

Maybe try your local hard drive?
