Error creating TIN?? Strange memory, or quantity error

Timothy Charles O'Brien · Fri Jul 27, 2018 3:43 pm

Hello, hope someone can shed some light on this problem am having.
Here is the error...

"could not construct tin (not enough disk - or too many TINS?)"

I am getting a strange error when trying to create a simple TIN 20 points, not large.
I have 35GB of free space on my HDD
8 GB af RAM running windows 10

12D 64bit C1m

I have maybe 50 tins in my project? Is there a limit on number of TINS??? Doesnt seem right.

Cheers for any help

Tim

Hi Timothy,

Just by chance, where is the project on disk? Local, network, Dropbox, etc?
Is it a 50k version, 100, ?

Hi Alan,

I am running the program off my local SSD (256GB) on my panasonic cf-20 toughbook. 35Gb of free space. Doesnt make much sense?

I have a licence for 5,000,000 points

Cheers

Does not sound right

Can you zip up the project and email to support at 12d dot com
Thanks

And the SLX of the Triangulate Panel

Unfortunately, My project is rather large 800Mb....

Whats the SLX of the triangulate panel mean?

I took a screenshot of the error on my phone. Do you want me to email that to you?
Is there somewhere i can upload the project?

I deleted a few tins and was able to create a cpl, then the error starts again.

I noticed in tin manager, there is a list of 6 tins in the removed tins list that i can not delete? its a long shot....

Cheers Tim

I forgot to mention, before i posted any of this i ran diagnostics on my SDD, and my RAM.
All passed ok.

Hardware should be tip top.

Was there a solution to this?

Yes.
I beleive there is now a message to say that you need enough swap space to be able to run the job.

The user also, was able to produce the tin when they changed to a bigfoot license. Should this message indicate point limit as an issue?

No it is independent of the point count.

It depeneds on the complexity of snippets and other things used in the MTF, and then how much swap space (virtual memory) is needed to evaluate them.
