error messages when opening model

Anonymous

when signing in or out of a teamwork model in archicad 11, i get the following errors:

- duplicated database name "roofmaker 2.1" at line 1 in the 2d script of file MASTER_GDLRoofmaker 2.1.gdl
- multiple versions - duplicate cleaners sink object
- Missing add-ons "cadimage update all" (i think this is because a mechanical/electrical engineer is hotlinked to the teamwork project, his machine has the add-on but mine doesnt?)

any way of sorting these messages?

Open the Library Manager, you have duplicate libraries loaded.

The file MASTER_GDLRoofmaker 2.1.gdl occurs twice in your loaded libraries.
This file creates a database for listing (the old way of listing, not the Interactive Schedule)
When the second instance of the GDL tries to create the RoofMaker database it see that is it already created.

You should remove one of the two MASTER_GDLRoofmaker 2.1.gdl from your loaded libraries.

The Library Loading Report Window should tell you where those duplicate instances are located.

Percy,

Post up a screen shot of the report. It might be useful to see a shot of the library manager showing what libraries are loaded also.

You will need to go into the library folder manually outside ArchiCAD and delete the one you don't want.

you have two archicad 11 libraries. One is a folder in the top section, the other is the archcad 11.lcf. This latter one is the one you should remove.
If you open up the folder archicad 11 you will find another archcad 11.lcf

Ha, Erika just beat me!

Yes, select the lower Archicad library 11.lcf and hit the remove button.

It would also be beneficial to place those extra 'Other Objects' that are listed underneath into the correct folders to stop them getting lost in the future. There shouldn't really be any 'other objects' listed in a well organised library.

OK i've done that but now i have 3800 duplicate objects, and still get the roofmaker error!

the CADimage error seems to have gone though.

i'd like to lose the roofmaker error because it makes signing in and signing out of the teamwork project take longer (as if it doesnt take long enough lol)
