Hello,
When performing a 2D simulation in the SewerGEMS software (10.04.00.158) I got the errors in the image below, including the error described in the title. I attach my used file.

Hello Luis,
When computing the model, we are seeing a different error message: "2D Solver Error: "ModuleRunOff - ConstructDischarges - ERR11."
This message is related to a 2D Boundary Point (flow) "BP-1" in a grid cell outside the grid or in a cell which is not an active grid cell. The issue occurs because BP-1 is directly over the a cross section of the channel, which is not a valid setup. The cross section elevation is a void space in the grid, since it is part of the channel, thus the Boundary Point is considered outside of the grid.
The validation for this will be improved in a future release of SewerGEMS and CivilStorm. In the meantime, you will want to either move the Boundary Point to another location or have the inflow for the Boundary Point go directly to the cross section element.
The link above includes information on this.
After removing the Boundary Point, we received another error message: "2D Solver Error: "ConstructSewerGEMS - ModuleRunOff - ERR281."
This is related to special characters used in the labels for your cross sections. This link has some information on this: Error computing 2D analysis with labels containing special characters, such as Portuguese or Polish letters, or characters like a backslash.
Replacing the special characters will resolve the issue. For instance, Seção-1 could be Secao-1, or simply truncated to S-1. This would resolve this issue. This will also be addressed in a future release of SewerGEMS and CivilStorm.
Please give the steps above a try to see if that helps with the issue.
Regards,Scott
Hello Scott,I merged the cross section naming and also removed the Boundary Point. Error 91 still persists. I will share the file again.Below I have provided the folder with the file and the error report.drive.google.com/.../18gWWxEph2MWXl2b3q5y24WF8XUwvI_CP
Hi again Luis,
Thank you for helping us trying to solve this issue. I would like to ask you 3 things, please.
1) Can you confirm that you tried changing in your Windows regional settings, the decimal symbol to dot "." and the Digit grouping symbol to a blank space " "?
2) Could you export and share your model to SWMM5? Go to menu File -> Export -> SWMM5
3) Could you open Windows Explorer and type %Temp%\Bentley\SewerGEMS and press Enter. Then look for all the files ending in *.map.dat and share them?
Thank you very much and kind regards,Luis
Hello Luis,Sure!
Luis Fernandes said:1) Can you confirm that you tried changing in your Windows regional settings, the decimal symbol to dot "." and the Digit grouping symbol to a blank space " "?
I had already replaced the digit from decimal to point. Now replaces the Digit grouping symbol to a blank space. After that, I ran it again and got a new error ERR281.

When I exported to SWMM5 an error occurred, but it still generated a file and I'm sharing it.
I found just one file
ps: I edited the grid area to test if it worked, then made it closer to the elevation shape.

Thanks, Luis. Unfortunately it is still hard to say why this is happening for you and not for us. We do see that in one of the files the cross-section names still have Portuguese characters though.
We are discussing internally the possibility of an update to provide to you that will enable more detailed logging.

Hello Jesse,
Did you test the software with the student version? I was thinking about the possibility of it being something like that too... because I downloaded the same version on my wife's laptop and the error also occurred.
There isn't a separate student version of the software, but rather it is handled as part of the licensing. The main difference when using a student license would be a watermark "not for commercial use" in printouts of reports. However, we can attempt to activate an academic license to test if it somehow has an impact on the calculations.
I will send you a private message shortly with a link to the latest cumulative patch for SewerGEMS 10.04.00.158 just in case it is somehow involved (although we cannot reproduce even in an unpatched version).
I downloaded the file and update my SewerGEMS. Well, I got a Error 281 occurred again...
Luis, please take a look at the file StormwaterModel.log for clues, or provide a copy here.
See "2D simulation error codes" at the bottom of this article: Locating OpenFlows product error log file
Sure. Here is the file.

Bom dia Luis,
Could you save the model to package and send us please? With the updated version we will be able to gather more information about the problem and hopefully be able to address it and solve it.
Thank you,Luis
Hello Luis, bom dia!
Well, good news for all of us. Today I turned on my laptop and went to do the simulation to save the package and, for some reason that idk, it worked. Now, I would like to know how to improve the visualization like in the image you provided at the beginning of this post. Below is the link with the package and an image of how it looks after the simulation (nothing very visually noticeable).
