Error-Unable to update setup. Unable to write APDL input file.

      Hello,

      I am running a design of experiments scheme to evaluate different designs and conduct stress analysis for those designs. When I run the design iteration manually, I receive no error and obtain the stress results. However, when I run the same design point with the optiSlang DoE scheme, I receive an error stating Update of the Setup component in Static Structural for Design Point 'X' failed: Unable to update setup. Unable to write APDL input file. I am setting up the analysis correctly because on manual iteration it works. Kindly help me resolve this issue.

      Update failed for the Setup component in Static Structural.  Unable to update setup. Unable to write APDL input file.

      I get this error after upgrading to 2023 R1, In the previous version 2022R1, I dint face this issue. 

      Any help is highly appreciated.

      Hello Vivek,

      Is this the first time you're using 23R1? Can you try resetting app data and let us know if that didn't help.

      1. Go to the Start Menu and open %temp% folder. Search for ‘.ansys’ folder and rename it to ‘.ansys.old’ then launch the application. 
      2. Open a file explorer and type %appdata% in the address bar.

      Locate the Ansys folder --> select version (V231) and rename it to V231.old

      Also did you check Gary's link to another discussion. I would recommend you to start a new post, instead of following on old threads. 

      Regards,

      Nanda.
