Error importing IDF and gbXML files

Good afternoon!

I installed SKP 2017 + EnergyPlus 8.7 + OS 2.1 but I can not import IDBS files generated by GBS.

The IDF file version is 8.5, I upgraded to 8.6 and 8.7, and there is still an import error. The same is true for gbXML files.

What can be wrong?

I also tried importing directly through OS 2.1 IDF and gbXML files and it always gives error.

By the way it is impossible to use such tools for import, only starting from scratch. If the import does not work, why "make available"?

Thanks!
