You will see the software execution error of there is a crash in the meshing process. This can occur due to mesh controls used or it can occur if there is not enough memory when creating large meshes or it can be caused by a firewall/antivirus program blocking the meshing process
Assuming that it is due to mesh controls in your model, you can try changing the mesh controls you have. If you have mutliple bodies, try controlling the meshing sequence. Select one body at a time, right click and select "generate mesh on selected bodies" . If meshing fails for a specific body, change mesh controls for the specific body. Try using a different mesh method (patch independent tetra instead of patch conforming tetra, multizone instead of sweep etc) and see if it helps
