Troubleshooting a Failed Mesh

beginner
How to find why a model failed in meshing: read the log file from the failure email, locate the named tile row, and fix a duplicated tile row.

This video shows how to troubleshoot a model that fails during meshing.

What the video shows

  1. Submit the model with the solve button and watch the status report, where the mesh generation stage fails.
  2. Open the failed job notification email and read the attached log file. The warnings all say no mesh exists for one tile row.
  3. In the model, switch to top view. Hold the control key and drag a box to select objects, then find that tile row.
  4. Right-click the tile row. The top menu option is group rather than edit, which means more than one tile row is selected.
  5. Drag the row away from its position to reveal two tile rows stacked on each other, delete the extra one, and resubmit the job.
