Static Stress Simulation not working

I tried a 7-day trial of the simulation extension and it appears to be broken.  I create a simple beam and the simulation fails.  I then went through the tutorial https://help.autodesk.com/view/fusion360/ENU/?guid=GUID-B59662BD-5833-43E4-B889-FB51C3A50F6E and it also fails.

 

Is the cloud simulation down?  It seems to upload fine and then fails immediately after starting "Solving".  Log just shows "Starting solve".

 

I haven't used the simulation for over a year at a previous job and didn't have any problems there.

It does appear to be an Autodesk cloud issue as it is working about 25% of the time this morning.

And another update this morning to 2.0.14113 seems to fix the 75% failure rate.  I figured that Fusion360 would have stabilised over the past year, but it seems to be worse (or I am just so unlucky that I picked the one bad day to try it again).

 

I wish the failure messages were useful -- if it said something like cloud server failure, try again later then I would have been more inclined to work on something else instead of wasting 3 hours minimising the model, doing a test model, and then finally going through the tutorial which also failed.
