Hi, I’ve some problem:
a) sometimes when I close and reopen a work I get a “Fatal error: ACCESS VIOLATION at address 0x0000000000000000 during ‘READ’ operation”
b) in AsterStudy, in model definition, when I “AFFE_CARA_ELEM” to a rectangular beam with the four value HY, HZ, EPY, EPZ and click OK in input CARA I obtain an
“Error: Invalid input in CARA. Do you want to save the changes any way? Y/N/ShowDetails”
and in details
What’s wrong?
Can someone help me?

Would anyone give me a hint about what is happening? CAW used to work up to a few days ago, but is failing repeatedly now.

PS2: After the confirmation I received in another post, I have been using the 2017.0.2 version.
The most weird part is that it used to work fine and, all of a sudden, got somehow broken
Even a reinstallation didn’t worked.

I am getting the same error “Sorry, it failed again. The study will be loaded in failsafe mode”. This makes me impossible to build a case and opening few days after it.
A local screen showing problems with some JSON is also shown.

This problem occurs in AsterStudy with studies that were created and tried to re-open few days after the creation day.
When this happens, I can only close the study by using the kill script and closing the “black windows”, as the global environment doesn’t work more.
Reading in posts, I tried to dissable the UNDO/REDO feature, in order to avoid problems with the TMP directory.
The problem is not fixed by this way.
What is the problem and how can I fix it?
Thanks,
Alex

Hi, again.
Reading the on-screen messages kindly provided by Hélio Carlos Bortolon, it seems to be the same problem. Different folders, but the same error messages and links with JSON objects.

Hi
I’got the same “JSON Perse Error” from Python as I try to activate Aster Module.
(both CAW2017 & 2018, tried on 2 windows PCs)
As tracing back the Error by reading original python script, it seems the Error occures when python try to read the “***_asterstudy.ajs” in “InstallDir\TMP\#####” folder.
(##### is 5digit number and differes every time.)
ajs file is created as you load hdf file which was saved before.
this ajs file is BLANK text file with “CRLF” line feed code.
I found some say python2.* fails to read JSON with CRLF and you have to use LF.
So changing this line feed code might solve the problem but I dont know how.
I hope this be helpful.
thanks.

As an alternative, one can use “File->Dump Study…” to save data from modules Geom and SMesh and “File->Load script…” to restore all data into a clean new Study. This may be an alternative to try opening corrupted hdf files.
