A technical problem on grasshopper

[shirachdut]

hello,
Im using the latest version of Rhino - rhino 7 and I created a code on grasshopper which works perfectly. the problem is that when I am trying to insert a shapefile to the component of a shapefile - i am getting as error message like there is no data in the shapefile (which is not true). do you know how can I solve it?

Hello
welcome on the forum. It will be hard to help you with so little information. We have some Wizard but not like Harry Potter or Gandalf and no !
Is ImportSHP your plugin ? If not which plugin ? What is the exact error message ? Is the SHP opened by other GIS tool ?

hello
sorry if my msg was a little bit massy. i am attaching to this msg the grasshopper code i worked with. i used urbano plugin and inserted osm files and everything worked, but when i wanted to insert a shapefile (using the component of import a shapefile) i have got the error “solution exception cold not find file…dbf” why it wrote dbf if it is a shp file? and why it made this error if there is data on this shapefile

i am attaching the shapefile, the osm file as a link and the grasshopper code as a zip folder

thank you for your help

but when i wanted to insert a shapefile (using the component of import a shapefile) i have got the error “solution exception cold not find file…dbf” why it wrote dbf if it is a shp file?

See the FYI here:

Import Shape File not Responding

I know nothing about Shape Files… Do I understand correctly that we should rename the .txt file you posted as nz-building-outlines.shp? Instead of supplying this file name using a text panel, as you did in the video, I right-clicked the ‘F’ input of the Import SHP component and selected the file: [SHP_2022Sep20a] When I select the renamed file, the component turns red and displays this error message: The *.SHX file for the nz-building-outlines project is missing [SHP_2022Sep20a2] FYI. …
