Error when trying to create a new project

[Dmytro_Z]

Greetings!

Need some advice regarding an error which appears when I am trying to create a new Outdoor and building planning.
Error message:

Code: Select all

Unbehandelte Ausnahme: Manuf is null.
System.NullReferenceException
Manuf is null.

The program is installed on a laptop, but I don't think it can be the reason.

Hello Dmytro,

Please delete the contents of the "temp folder" from your system and try to start evo again.

To do this, you only have to type %temp% into the Windows Explorer search function and delete all the contents of the folder. Afterwards please check whether you are able to start a new evo project without any problems.

In case the problem still exists, please close evo and open the “Service Tool” in the DIAL GmbH folder (see attached screenshots 1&2). In the "Service Tool" you will find a button called "Clear recent furnitures". Please click on it and afterwards open evo again.

Thanks Csuleiman!

I cleaned Temp folder in c:\Windows\Temp\

Then tried to create a new scene in the program.
Now I don't have the previous error message, but when trying to Draw rectangular floor element - a windows error message appears:
(I translated to EN)

After that I used service tool as you described, but it didn't help.

Looks like some problem with geometry according to the error message.
It appears right after I click first time to set first point of floor element on plan view.

Hello Dmytro,

We would recommend you to uninstall your current evo version completely from your computer system and install our newest evo 8.2 patch 1 version by using the following download link. In this case, all DIALux components will be newly registered.

DIALux evo 8.2 patch 1: https://b2b.dial.de/index.php/s/remTwgv87qPCEJz

If the problem still occurs after the new installation, please try to deactivate all your security software (virus scanner and the firewall) once on your computer system and after this please check if the problem is solved.
If you have a bad feeling to disable the security software, you can deactivate your WLAN connection and remove the network cable from your computer.

Besides this, please update the graphics adapter driver on the manufacturer's website of your graphics card and not by the help of Windows. Maybe it is an Intel driver problem.

Please have a look at the following threads from our DIALux board:
