EA Sparx crashing - 'A required resource'
« on: April 26, 2017, 06:16:10 pm »
Hi - I've recently upgraded to version 13 and I'm frequently (every 15-20mins) encountering the following error message 'a required resource' which on clicking 'ok' proceeds to crash my system and close Sparx down.



Log Name:      Application

Faulting application name: EA.exe, version: 13.0.0.1310, time stamp: 0x58b89830
Faulting module name: EA.exe, version: 13.0.0.1310, time stamp: 0x58b89830

Has anyone encountered this issue before and if so is there a resolution for it please?


Many thanks in advance.

Yes, I have been encountering it as well, although every hour or so rather than 15-20 minutes.  But as there has been no apparent pattern to the problem it's difficult to report to Sparx with any meaningful info for investigation.

Even if you can't reproduce a crash reliably, we can investigate it.

If you are able to provide a mini crash dump (see http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/8103.application-crash-dump-analysis-windows-7.aspx) and your EA build we have a good chance of seeing what went wrong.

Simon - Thanks.  I've raised a ticket for this to be investigated.


Graham - If (when) the issue gets resolved, I'll post and advise on the course of action taken to see if its of help to you.
