BIM Sever libraries Not available help

[Anonymous]

We have a BIM sever setup, to which we have added a number of libraries. We can all see the BIM libraries when we go to add them to a solo project and they appear to get added successfully.

But when we go to access an object from the libraries in a job are not loaded.
When we check with the Library Manager the BIM server libraries that were selected are now shown as unavailable. see image 2

any help with this issue would be very much appreciated

Ok, I have the libraries on my machine, but they're not in a shared location like the teamwork projects are. Do I need to move them? We're in a deadline crunch on a house and the libraries are not loading at all....

Try copying all your required libraries, including the AC14 library into one folder. Then upload this library onto the bimserver. You should then only have this one library folder loaded. It's no ideal, but worked for us.

Just to clarify - by upload I mean load the library from a folder onto your bimserver. To access this library you need to then load it from the bimserver library list.

Should I load just the .lcf or the whole folder?

Unless there are not macros, lights, etc you should load the folder.

To resolve my problem, I've copied everything into a folder called [LIBRARY SAPSOPS]. This folder is then uploaded to the Bimserver. It's then the only library folder I load into my teamwork project.
Hope it works.

Got it sorted with the bug fix Greg suggested previously. I had my server named after my IP address and I changed it to my computer name. Just loaded the 13 and 14 libraries to my server.

Thanks,
