Hi Daren,

Thank you for your quick reply. No , I am getting this fatal error every time I click on the Run Button even with empty code .

Thx. for ur help.

[daren-thomas]

that is really strange. which version are you running? 2015.05.21?

can you run an external script?

as it is, this is very hard to debug. Try installing an external script (with the configure dialog, just download one from the rps-samples repository on github) and see if that produces the same results.

The version available on https://github.com/architecture-building-systems/revitpythonshell is 2015.0

[daren-thomas]

did you build it yourself or download the release 2015.05.21 from the releases section?

I get the same error. I am running Revit 2015 Update 9 with RevitPythonShell 2015.04.29 . IronPython IronPython v2.7.5b3. Windows 7 x64. I tried a fresh install with no updates and got the same error on 3 different computers. I am simply just trying to run a print 'Hello World' to get started.

I tried installing an external script from the configure dialog and it does work! I get the error when using Interactive Shell and Non-modal Shell.

[daren-thomas]

thank you. i'll look into it next week.

Yes, now i have a same issue ??? same error with @engsabbagh

[daren-thomas]

It could be the IronPython version - RPS bundles its own IronPython (2.7.3). In fact, just installing IronPython 2.7.5 makes Revit crash when RPS is configured with a startup script. I'm investigating.

[colinrichardson]

I had the same error and saw somewhere else that reverting to ironpython 2.7.4 could fix it, worked for me.

[daren-thomas]

Yes, currently RPS will not work if IronPython 2.7.5 is installed. I do not know how to fix this. I think it might be out of my control and a Revit issue but cannot really prove this. Separating the RPS shell into its own application works fine with the newer version of IronPython, only when integrated with Revit does this issue show up. I won't be fixing this due to time constraints. Sorry.
