When I am doing finite element analysis with PROE4.0/ Mechaica,
I encounter a problem that I don't know what to do with.
I hope to solve it under your help, it is very important for my study.
The prolem is as follows,

Summary for Design Study "Analysis1"

Run Settings
Memory allocation for block solver: 128.0
Parallel Processing Status
Parallel task limit for current run: 2
Parallel task limit for current platform: 64
Number of processors detected automatically: 2
Checking the model before creating elements...
These checks take into account the fact that AutoGEM will
automatically create elements in volumes with material
properties, on surfaces with shell properties, and on curves
with beam section properties.
Generate elements automatically.
The design study terminated abnormally.
An internal engine error has occurred. Please be sure
to run error checking before you run this study. If
you have run error checking, then contact Customer Support.

If you run the error check it should tell you what is wrong.
It's not a convergence problem because it is failing before it even starts to run.
Hello,
I am new to Creo Simulate, and have had a similar problem.
How do I run the error check?
In other words: what steps do I need to take to run an error check?
I've tried using to "Command Search" for "error" but nothing comes up.
Re: Stephen Seymour's post, I've found the *.pas file, and opening it in a text editor gave me some more information. Is this runnung an error check?
Thank you.

Watermelon,
Open the *.pas file located in the solve directory. That file will give a more detailed output regarding the error that halted the solve engine.
Good Luck,
Steve
