Worksharing Monitor not functioning correctly

Published date: 2008-Aug-18
ID: TS1084747

Applies to:
Revit® Architecture 2009
Revit® Architecture 2008

Issue

The Worksharing Monitor (available from the Subscription Center) was not working properly, and you were unable to see which users were working on a file.

Solution

The Worksharing Monitor tool may work properly if the local (or central) file names contain dots (.) other than the dot immediately before the RVT file extension. 
 
To resolve this issue, rename the local and central files so that there are no dots in the file names other than the dot before the RVT extension.
