I think it may have something to do with using the IP address of the BIM Server instead of the full networked computer name, but I am yet to confirm this 100%. If this is the case, I am sure it is not the intended outcome. ( in other words, a bug).

I was looking in the xml files found in the TW Data folders (LibraryCacheFolderWrapper.xml and CacheInfo.xml) and found out that om my machine the server name was identical in both files but on the other two machines the server name had the extension .plusshus.se in the file CacheInfo.xml. I've chenged these and tried over again but the problem reamains.
We did not have this problem (at least nobody complained about it) before the hotfix was installed. Do you have the hotfix installed as well?

We have 26 machines and I am yet to go through them and see which are using IP and which are using the computer name. (busy at the moment - praying the BIM server does not go down!) I will have a look tomorrow.

It's a pain since it makes it impossible to work without a network connection, i.e. while travelling or working from home. All suggestions are appreciated.

I've compared the content of the TW Data folders on the workstations that have problems with the content on my machine (I don't have this problem) and the libraries are the same.
What confuses me is that it works when they are working online but not offline... My understanding is that the libraries in the TW Data folder is used in both cases

It would be good to compare the content of the Local Data folder between the working and non working computers.(including the content of the library xml file).
If there is no difference, probably a total - maual - cleanup of this folder might help (make sure all changes are sent to the server prior deleting everything).

I've tried to remove the TW Data folder and rejoined while online so that the TW Data folders have been re-created but the problem with missing libraries remains when they open the project without a connection to the server.
I opened the xml files found in the TW Data folders (LibraryCacheFolderWrapper.xml and CacheInfo.xml) and found out that om my machine (on this workstation I have no problem) the server name was identical in both files but on the other two machines the server name had the extension .plusshus.se in the file CacheInfo.xml. Why is it different and how is this information used by ArchiCAD?
I am working from a different location than the other two but we work on the same projects.

The Discovery system provides this kind of service, the server is "shouting" on the network that "here I am". The ArchiCAD clients hear this and automatically add it to the list of available servers.
The address provided using this discovery service usually contains the company domain as well - like "computername.plusshuss.se", while when someone adds the server manually it is enough to enter the "computername".
