Sat Jan 10, 2009 5:06 pm Crash when generating price with SOME files in new v1.55
I've found that three of my ems files (primarily [-- login to view link --] + some internal threads) will now crash when I attempt to generate a price after I upgraded to v1.55. I didn't have this problem before v1.55, and not ALL of my files do this, even files which are considerably more complex than the ones in question. In fact, of the 30 or so files which compromise the project I am currently working on, only these three seem to have trouble.
I don't have any problem opening or even 3D previewing the files, only when I go to generate a price quote. It stalls at Calculating price/time options and eventually, if I am very very patient, claims I am out of memory. (8GB available, though!)
I've sent a message to support and included the three files, but I just wanted to see here if anyone else has had a similar problem, in case there is an easy solution?
One (simple) fix I've already tried is simply copying and pasting the contents, view by view, from the original to a new file, just in case it was a corrupted file or something. No go, didn't help. I could actually re-create the files if I needed to, instead of copy-paste, but I'm not sure if it would make any difference, and they are fairly complex so I'm hoping I won't have to!
"Quite easy to use. Within only about 10 minutes I had it downloaded, installed, and had designed and priced a brass cog with 32 teeth, 1 inch in diameter and 1/4 inch thick. The quote was immediate."
