I'm trying to upgrade to 4.1
If I install from the releases page, it works fine.
However, when i run the bat file, and then open BB, i get the following error when i try to enable the plugin.
any ideas?

Traceback (most recent call last):

    blenderbim.bim.register()

this is the .bat file...

This 'might' be related.
I get this error when trying to pull down from github...

I hard reset back to some arbitrary commit, and I was able to enable BB, however, when i pull down, i get the same error.

@theoryshaw are you sure it's the full traceback? There might be more before it - typically there are some other errors that made bim module fail to load which leads to this.

I get this error when trying to pull down from github...

Got this one today too, not sure what happened but something about v0.8.0 branch, haven't solved it.
I don't think it's related to the BlenderBIM issue but ping @aothms just in case.

Try:

git update-ref -d refs/remotes/origin/v0.8.0

I don't understand either tbh

theoryshaw

Seems to work so far! Thanks @aothms

This one AttributeError: module 'blenderbim' has no attribute 'bim' is resolved too after the fix?

theoryshaw

@Andrej730 Yes, i think this is solved... or i'm not getting the error any more, anyway. :)
