ArcSWAT3 in ArcGIS Pro 3.6-3.7 crashing

[Matjaž Glavan]

I am having a problem where ArcSWAT3 is stop working and ArcGIS Pro is crashing after I try to connect the soil lookup table with user soil.  With land use is ok but not will soil.

I attached print screens 1-5.

Is that a problem that others have to?

The problem is in user soil. I added soil data with pasting from Excel and adding via SWAT editor. In both cases the same problem. 

When I delete project soils from usersoil, I get notice that soils specified in the lookup table are not present in QSWATref2012.

Is there any special process of usersoil prepration in MDB file, I should follow to avoid the crash?

In the past I was using ArcSWAT for ArcMap and this part of the model setup was the easiest. Now I am stuck with this problem for 3 days.

I am following all protocols and all connections are ok. What Am I doing wrong.

I any other version of ASWAT3 for ArcGIS Pro without bugs.

Thank you for your help.

Send me a zip of your project folder and I will investigate.

Dear Chris

Thank you for your fast reply and willingness to help me with my model set-up issues.

I was able to sort out the previous issue. It seems I needed three subbasins and reaches (I was hoping that 1 basin and 1 reach would be enough).

However, after selecting "Read" and  "Create HRUs", I get this ERROR: Failed to write Boolean entry False to hru/isArea: No value given for one or more required parameters. (Fig.6)

Is this error critical for further work (i.e., Model run, results export), or can I proceed with setting up the model?

It seems that it shouldn't be a problem, as the model allows me to proceed with Step 3: Edit Inputs and Run SWAT.

I can also observe the HRUs report. (Fig.7)

I am attaching my project.

PS. I worked with ArcSWAT in ArcMap for 20 years, and I knew all the tricks. With ArcGIS Pro, I was caught a bit unprepared.

All the best.

Dear all 

Follow up by Chris George on my problem.

This is an error which Chris George fixed a while ago.  I must have set up my

project originally with an older version of ArcSWAT3.

 

The error is a missing field isArea in the table config_hru in the

project database (the .mdb file in the project directory with the same

name as the project).  I attach a zip of the current template project

database.  This should be stored (unzipped) in

C:\SWAT\SWATEditor\Databases, so that you don't have the same problem in

future projects.

You can also fix your current project by opening its project database in

Access, make a note of the values in config_hru and delete it (or rename

it) and import the table from the template database.  (If you leave the

existing table the new one will be called config_hru1, which will not

help.)  Then you can manually set the fields: there are only a few.  Or

you can just add the isArea BOOLEAN field to config_hru.

 

The error does little harm.  ArcSWAT3 saves the hru settings so that if

you reopen the hrus form it sets the options the same as before.  If it

failed to store the old ones then the reopened form may be different

from what you set previously, that is all.

Dear Chris

With your help, I successfully established projects 1 and 2. 

However, today I tried to establish project 3, G1Globodol. Link to project: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ReXFKVOSuuzLZNSBiMQ-T74oGPMGVQS6/view?usp=sharing

I was not successful.

It is again the original error (Fig.8). ArcGIS Pro closes down while I try to upload (Run) the SOIL LookUpTable.

May I kindly ask you to look into where the problem could be?

Thank you very much.
