I have been experiencing this on the Nintendo Switch as well 1.16.201
The only thing that gets things working is:
1. Archive game
2. Redownload Game
3. Move game from SD card to internal storage
This will get it working for maybe 1-3 days before i have to do it again.
I have 15GB of free storage space internally and 70GB on the SD card.
There is definitely some sort of temporary file issue with Minecraft on the Nintendo Switch in 1.16.xxx, as well as some sort of oddity with accessing (or writing) files simultaneously on both internal and external (SD card) storage.
It looks like this is still broken in 1.16.21 on the Switch unless you rearchive
And download.
The error looks the same. It gives an error box that just says “An Error occurred” and then a pop up that says “level export failed”.
When you archive, and redownload, the error box still appears but the “level export succeeded” message changes.
The world appears to work after the upload error on the realm.
My install is on my local switch storage, not an external SD card. I still have several GB of free space.
I can confirm that this issue exists on the Nintendo Switch Firmware 10.1.0 with Minecraft 1.16.1 on a fresh realm Subscription purchased (but not used) via Bedrock on Windows 10.
The subscription shows up correctly on the Switch. It tries to start the upload of the pre-existing world (4.5MB in size, started in version 1.16.1 on the Switch) and simply gives the pop up dialogue “an error occurred” and then bails out.
The marketplace seems messed up though other online features appear to be accessible, so the network connection to whatever those servers are appears to work.
That being said, the Marketplace on the Switch right now shows coding object names for categories, so there’s clearly some issues going on there too.
Edit: Some updates:
1. Worlds can be uploaded successfully to a realm and edited from the Windows 10 Bedrock Edition. This doesn’t solve anything as my worlds are on the Switch.
2. Worlds that are uploaded with the windows 10 Bedrock edition can be downloaded successfully (locally) to the Nintendo switch. That same world cannot be re-uploaded from the Nintendo Switch
3. World size doesn’t matter. The world size being replaced doesn’t seem to matter. I’ve tried with Empty, small and large worlds upload from the switch (smaller and larger than the existing realm world) with no success.
4. I’ve tried changing DNS servers with no success.
Do you mean the Bedrock Edition for Nintendo Switch? If so, I have seen this issue on 1.11.1 on the Switch.
I had this happen a 2nd time this weekend.
I was paying closer attention. I had 2 shulker boxes on the ground. I finished placing items and broke both in rapid succession. One went into my inventory, one did not. It did not make the item collection sound of picking an item up. After thoroughly checking the area, I tried logging off and then logging back in to see if it would re-appear. This time it re-appeared in my inventory, where it was previously not. It appears the box was there in my inventory but invisible. The next time it happens, I'll try to fill every inventory slot I have and see if there's an invisible item that can't be moved.
