Greetings,
I installed Pollination for Revit 2023, when starting the Revit app i get this error:
Anyone have similar issues? I did come across this one:
Hi,
Thanks to the LB Tools team for the Pollination Revit plugin.
I was trying to test the Pollination’s Revit plugin.
But after installation of the Revit plugin (Plugin v2.32.5 on Revit 2021), I am getting the following error “Revit cannot run the external application ‘Pollination.Revit’”
I have included the screenshot of the error message below:
[Pollination.Revit error]
Request your help to resolve this error.
Thanks in advance!
But did not solve my issue unfortunately.

@mingbo do you know why this might be happening?

Hi and thanks @mostapha and @mingbo .
I had a lot of different add-ins installed and deleted all of them as @ksobon recommended.
@aziz quick question. This error states that the Eto Application is already created, which tells me that somehow it’s trying to create another one. Pollination plugin is not doing this initialization twice, so I am guessing something else initialized Eto App already. What other Revit plugins do you have installed? First thing from top of my head is something like Rhino Inside Revit which would be the only thing potentially using Eto.
Just to confirm, please try uninstalling other plugins (or ju…
This did work! Not sure which add-inn created the problem, but it was not RhinoInsideRevit.
