Visual Fotran output statement overflow error #181

Closed rohithvaidya closed 4 years ago

rohithvaidya commented 4 years ago

Tried running the APDL code for static structural analysis. When it tries executing the 'SOLVE' command the program crashes and shows the following,

Visual Fortran output statement overflow error code -15 file $CONOUT

What could be the reason ?

akaszynski commented 4 years ago

Does this occur when just using MAPDL normally?

rohithvaidya commented 4 years ago

Nope, I was able to get the solution in Ansys Mechanical APDL. I got this error only when I ran it with pyansys. I have attached the commands I ran for your ref

This sounds like an issue with the CORBA interface. It’s going to be replaced with an alternative interface in the future, but for the time being it sounds like there’s no workaround unless you can use Linux with prefer_pexpext=True.

rohithvaidya commented 4 years ago

Are you able to reproduce this error in your system ?

akaszynski commented 4 years ago

Solving doesn’t cause this bug on my end. I’ll need the script to test that. What version is your ANSYS?

rohithvaidya commented 4 years ago

v18.2. Attached is the file and the script fea.txt

akaszynski commented 4 years ago

Tried running the script, but it seems that there's an IGS file that's missing. Could you please upload and zip all the files necessary to run the script?

rohithvaidya commented 4 years ago

Uploaded. Change the path in IGESIN command. Run it with the python script I sent previously. (run_ans)

I think this bug is due to the CORBA interface. See my comment at the end of #213.

ANSYS has been working on improving the RPC interface and should have a newer interface by the end of this year that will be more reliable.
