Ansys Workbench 14.5: Unable to attach geometry error.
Ansys Workbench 14.5: Unable to attach geometry error.
(OP)
Hi all,
I am working on a 3D model in Ansys workbench 14.5. I did a simulation, but I wanted to update 1 component in the geometry. So, I imported a .prt file and tried to update the model. But the simulation window crashes giving the error:
"Unable to attach to geometry file..file location. Either the application crashed or workbench lost communication with it".
Any help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks.

Yes I am using Design Modeler to import the CAD. And then after importing I am trying to open the simulation window to update the model. I am using "Import External Geometry File" as the option to bring in the updated component. First I suppressed the old component and then I imported the new one in DM. Once its imported, I tried top open the simulation window in workbench. So it gave the error mentioned above.
The second point I want to make here is of the Automatic contact creation of Ansys workbench. I have turned off the option from Tools>>Options>>Mechanical but still it does creates some duplicate connections.
