Post Processor fails to output

Just recently I have attempted to output nc code using a post processor from the Fusion library that I have successfully used many times.  I get an error message that says it failed to post.  The error message further says :  

Error: ReferenceError: createOutputVariable is not defined

Error at line: 179.    I also saw under job status that an update failed to complete.  Can you offer some suggestions how to resolve?  Thanks.

What post processor are you using, and can you share your Fusion file? (it may be related to a toolpath setting)

File > Export > Save to local folder, return to thread and attach the .f3d file in your reply

 

As for the "Update Failed", you can click here:

If that doesn't solve it, you'll likely need to run the Fusion Service Utility

(likely not related to the issue you're seeing, but it's best to resolve this issue)

This is the f3d file attached.  I am using the Shopsabre with WinCNC post from the library.

One additional detail-  I also tried to output single toolpaths at a time, not all of them and it didn't seem to make a difference.

Hello @bjw9EQBR ,

 

I am pretty sure that you get this error because your Fusion installation is outdated but the postprocessor you are using does require Fusion to be updated to the latest version.

In detail, the latest Shopsabre postprocessor does require as a minumum the postprocessor kernel version 45917 and there is a good chance that your outdated Fusion is using an older version.

 

You can either try to get your Fusion updated so that it has the latest postprocessor kernel or you can use the previous version of the Shopsabre postprocessor which you can download here:

Thank you for the help. I will need to get a system administrator here to update my version.
