Q:

The first step of troubleshooting a system error?

 

R:

Sometimes the analysis generator gets corrupted, and the program returns a system error even though the inputs are consistent. Please update the “Reset Analysis Subtype” as shown below.

 

Once that is done, please call the necessary input files once again and put the run.

Also, verify with other versions of SACS, whether it is working in upgraded version or was working in any previous version. If found working in other version, please check the SACS Readme article to identify was change was incorporated which might have triggered or mitigated the system error. Try rectifying the same and see.

If the issue persists, then please raise a service case to Bentley Technical Support Team, attach the complete set of SACS input and run files in proper sequential order and mention the version of the program.
