Hi DWEN,

  Yes, this is exactly what we were looking for.

  I see there is an existing one called OMP_NUM_THREADS = 6.  Could you try closing Inventor, change the value from 6 to 1, then re-launching Inventor to see if meshing works?

  If this doesn't work, please change the value back to 6 and let us know.  I will share your list with Development and we'll get back to you if there is anything else that seems out of place.

Many thanks, -Hugh

Hugh,

I have e-mailed a .txt file containing my environment variables to the address you provided.

Thank you for yor assistance in this matter.

I can not change this. see picture

 Is there an other way to change this from 6 to 1?

[#4]

Hugh,

I saw that my OMP_NUM_THREADS variable was set to 6 (like DWEN's), so I attempted changing it to 1 as you instructed. Despite the change, the error still continues.

DWEN,

I was also unable to change the OMP_NUM_THREADS variable with the windows gui, however, I was successful in changing it via command line. If you go start->"cmd", and then right click the cmd application, you can then select 'run as administrator'. After the cmd window appears, type "set OMP_NUM_THREADS=1" into the prompt to set the variable.

Thanks,

Rob

I am sorry, i am running my computer as administrator. But anyway I can not go in to cmd prompt (richt klik) and change it in run as administrator.  Then I tried to change this parameter with set OMP_NUM_THREADS=1.

But nothing happens. Stil standing at 6.

Anyway..... It did not help for you. So for me it is the same I think.

Same thing every year when there is an new inventor......

Hi DWEN and rschwartz,

  Thank you for checking and reporting back. 

  I think it is also worthwile to try logging in as a user with admin rights and try to mesh.  Hopefully, Inventor was installed with administrative rights in order to have unrestricted write access to the registry, enviornment variables, etc.  If you are unsure if Inventor was installed without restrictive privileges, please try a re-install with a user having full admin rights, firewalls turned off, etc. to see if it helps.

  I have compiled the feeback info and passed the issue along to Development for further investigation.  Hopefully we'll hear back soon.

Best regards, -Hugh

Okay, Development has got back to me very quickly!

  We would like more info.  Could you send us the log file generated upon the failed mesh?  It will be located in your C:\Temp folder, and it will be called FEAComputeServer.log.

  To enable the log file, create this registry key:

(set HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Autodesk\Inventor\RegistryVersion17.0\Assembly Stress Analysis\ DebugInfo =dword:00000001).
With it, we can tell:

1. Whether the 3^rd part meshing exe file is found or not
2. Whether meshing is executed or not

  I've also attached a registry key that you can double-click and it will create the reg key automatically.  The 17.0 assumes you are using Inventor Release 2013.

Thanks, -Hugh

I am sorry, installed youre key. and looked in C\temp.  No such file.

And yes I have Inventor 2013.

After I press the mesh button, I get a waiting bar. The waiting bar shows for +/- 30 sec and doesn't move.

Then the waiting bar disapears and notthing has changed.

[#9]

Made an other user and gave it administrator rights.

Then started inventor and try to make a mesh.

Gave me some more info: (see screenshot)

But when I search for the folder \APPDATA, there is no such folder.

Greetings

Do you have any news?

This problem is verry hard for me, I have to make some FEM on a part that I have drawn on Inventor 13.

So I can't go back to Inventor 2012.

You can also call me. 0032 89 79 35 31
