Failing IFC upload

Hey @alex
I have a similar problem. After uploading an ifc it gives me the following runtime error


in the ‘Import Files’ section for the imported ifc. I’ve attached the IFC-File
o3PM_ASTRA_Schlammsammler_1_0.ifc (24.6 KB)

Hope you can help me out here!

Hi @ahaffter

We included this file in the testing of our next-gen IFC importer.
And made some discoveries.

We concluded that the data in the IFC file is invalid and does not follow the STEP file standards.
The standard says that there should not be whitespace between newline characters, and the declaration of a STEP entity.

I’d be curious, where did this IFC file come from?


The standard exists for a reason to ensure consistency, performance, and reliability - and right now, we are taking the decision not to change our IFC parsing logic to fit non-standard IFC files.
