Update Bugs

@BrianJ the latest RC update from 8.02.2022 messed up Rhino. Is there a way to roll back? Until now I am seeing the following errors:

  • Grasshopper startup
Priority: GhpyLoader
{
  Method not found: 'Microsoft.Scripting.Hosting.ScriptRuntimeSetup IronPython.Hosting.Python.CreateRuntimeSetup(System.Collections.Generic.IDictionary`2<System.String,System.Object>)'.
  MissingMethodException
}
  • EditPythonScript: Unknown Command
  • VisualArq objects failing (might be unrelated)

Hello- can you try repairing the installation?

(and re-boot)

-Pascal

@pascal Thanks. I repaired and restarted. Unfortunately no change. I am still on the same version.

@pascal I started Rhino in safe mode. Then _EditPythonScript → Load IronPython Yes → Gives the following error:

Command: EditPythonScript
Error occurred loading plug-in
Details:
Method not found: ‘Microsoft.Scripting.Hosting.ScriptRuntimeSetup IronPython.Hosting.Python.CreateRuntimeSetup(System.Collections.Generic.IDictionary`2<System.String,System.Object>)’.

I see - to go back, you can find older installers here:

C:\ProgramData\McNeel\McNeelUpdate\DownloadCache

though you may need to hunt around for the right one.

Uninstall Rhino and then run the installer for the version you want assuming you can find it - let me know if not. But you should be able to run the latest, of course, I’lll see what I can find out.

@silvano - confirmed, the RC does indeed have this bug - best to go back to 7.15 which is now the official release.

Hi Everyone,

Thanks for reporting the issue, I’ve logged it as RH-67409 to get that fixed up!

Thanks everybody for the help and for prioritizing this one.

Regarding my initial post’s mentioning of VisualArq objects stopping to work, I can confirm it is related. The objects that stopped working, are Grasshopper based object styles. I assume since GH is starting with errors, those objects cannot get their geometry from GH.

Version 7.15.22039.13001: OK
Version 7.16.22039.15001: Above bug is present

After a bit of investigation, I found that I can reproduce this when IronPython 2.7.11 is installed separately to the GAC, so uninstalling (or unchecking the GAC check box on its installer) may help in the meantime.

@curtisw Thanks for investigating this. Uninstalling IronPython from the GAC solved the problem for me.

@silvano Awesome, glad to know that works for you. A fix is coming that will not require you to do that in the future.

RH-67409 is fixed in Rhino 7 Service Release 16
