Hi @pmaroneh. Thanks for reporting this issue. It looks like you are using the current development version (2023R2) with the released version of pydpf-composites (version 0.1). These two versions are incompatible. You can either use 2023R1 together with pydpf-composites version 0.1 by passing an argument to connect_to_or_start_server:

connect_to_or_start_server(ansys_path=os.environ["AWP_ROOT231"])

Or you can install install the current development version of pydpf-composites:
pip install git+https://github.com/pyansys/pydpf-composites.git

The development version is most of the time compatible with the current Ansys development version (2023R2). However, these versions are development versions that can break occasionally.

Hi @janvonrickenbach
thank you for the suggestion, but it does not work either:

[janvonrickenbach]

@pmaroneh : Is this with the stable version (0.1) with 2023R1 or the dev version with 2023R2?

[pmaroneh]

@janvonrickenbach this is for stable version with 2023R1

Thanks @janvonrickenbach for reaching out. Issue was related to an incorrect line of script that had been added. Problem solved.
