My company is working in Revit 2009, multiple flavors & all w/ current service packs. When individual disciplines work on independent files, we get 3 backup files, per the default settings. I'm lead to believe that the templates are all correct.
We have 2 large projects that we are working on with central files and multiple users. Surprisingly enough, we have NO backup files to be found. The folders are there, but if you go into File -> Backup, it is blank. If I go into the backup folder itself, there is no numbered .rvt file to be found, only .rws & .dat files.
This was noticed after one of the local files that was linked to the central file got corrupted and we could not rebuild the file using the journal. Several hours of work has been lost & the user is frustrated. It turns out that both central files and the linked local files are not creating backups.
All of the users that have accessed the file all show their default settings are correct.
I am lost on this one, does anyone have any suggestions on where else to look for possible setting corrections OR do we have several faulty installations (which I doubt).
I vaguely remember hearing about another setting location for changing the default number, but cannot find where it is at.
Any help is appreciated on this matter.
