RFEM Server gRPC API | Crash

Hello Dlubal Community,

our RFEMServer instance running on a Windows Server experiences crashes quite often. From the logs, it is apparent that the crash is related to the CrashReportEngine, but the details are not understandable for a layman like me.

Here is an excerpt from the logs:

CRASH_REPORT_WAS_NOT_SENT

I could not find any entry regarding this in the RFEM Release Notes, so I assume the error still exists and an update of RFEM does not make sense yet.
I am happy to provide the complete logs if needed.

Info

RFEM version: 6.12.0009
Dlubal.Api version: 6.12.9

Hi hasslernils,

I would try the latest version, even if there was no related fix documented in the release notes. If this doesn't help it would be good to have the complete logs.

Thank you.

Best regards
