Arena (Rockwell) simulator crashes everytime I click check model or run

Question

I'm using Arena simulator (by Rockwell), in particular the "Arena training and Evaluation Mode" for students. After using it without any problems for a few months, since yesterday every time I click on "check model" or "run the model" Arena closes automatically. I have no idea what could be the cause (I haven't made any changes to the PC, the only thing I did was to add a new video card). Has anyone had the same problem? Any suggestions?

Answer 1

Fix in a few seconds: Just double click on the .accdb file in the same folder as you simulation file and click open on the pop up screen. Then try running your model. İt will fix it. For details check the link below. https://youtu.be/V7KvyRtMiho

Answer 2

Arena works with access software, it is likely that the version of access you have on your computer is not compatible with the version Arena needs to work properly. Go to the unzipped folder you extracted from the zip you downloaded, go to MediaImage, then Redist, then AccessDataBaseEngine and finally install the file found there. These steps should solve your problem.

Answer 3

I was having the same issue and what I did to fix it was reinstalling. The only thing I made differently this time was to tick on the "repair" option rather than "update" when prompted with the access runtime window.

Hope this helps!
