Unhandled exception in RAS Mapper, HEC-RAS 4.1.0

[Anonymous]

Hi

my RAS Mapper suddenly stopped working. I have allready made succesfully many floodmaps in the same project. When I try to open Mapper it starts to load information but end up to an unhadled exception. Message says: Parameter is not valid. After pressing a continue button it gives a Run-time error ‘-2147024809 (80070057)’: Parameter is not valid. Under you can find some information about error. It happens only with this project.

Any ideas what to do? I still have couple floodmaps to do.

See the end of this message for details on invoking
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

Here is what I’ve had to do when I’ve had Mapper crashing that you might try.

If you have a small storage area graphic and you are zoomed out this will cause this sometimes. You need to try and zoom in on the small area then close mapper and reopen.

Other times I’ve had to delete the mapper files from the project folder and start mapper over again.

Thank you for your answer Lonnie.

I can’t try your first suggestion, because Mapper crashes before I am able to do anything.

I have to try your second suggestion. The problem is that I don’t no where to find those Mapper files. I tried to find correct filetypes using earlier post but didn’t find any that could be from Mapper. How can I recognise those files?

Post I used is: http://hecrasmodel.blogspot.com/2013/04/hec-ras-file-types.html

*.rasmap is the mapper file.

Couple things I think you can try to get past mapper crashing as soon as you open it (if the storage area is the issue):

Try creating another plan with a dummy geometry and have that as the current plan before you try to open Mapper. Once mapper opens you can zoom in on the small storage area graphic and then close mapper. Go back to RAS and set plan to your run of interest and then go back to mapper.
Or
If it is a small storage area that is causing the problem you can either drag points to make the storage area graphic larger or delete it. This might get you into mapper without the crash.

I believe what the problem is with small SA graphics has to do with the display compressing the small polygon into a single point….
