Error Message for Material Library at Program Start

When starting the program, the error message appears: "CPPSQLITE_ERROR [1000]: Error in material library File name: … Description: Cannot find standard group "EN"

Answer:

In each program version, the following two material libraries must be synchronized:

  • The "Materials.dbd" material library with the common materials installed by the program
  • User-defined material library "Materials_Purpose.dbd"

The following steps can help you to solve the problem:

  • Open the command line with administrator rights.

  • Switch to the RFEM folder.
  • Run the following command: DBConverter.exe /Material_Synchronize "C:\ProgramData\Dlubal\RFEM 5.23\General Data\Materialien.dbd" "C:\ProgramData\Dlubal\RFEM 5.23\General Data\Materialien_User.dbd"

It is necessary to adjust the paths, of course. It takes a while to complete the process. You can check this by looking in Task Manager.

As an alternative, we recommend a new installation. The first time you try to reinstall the program, you will be asked if you want to start deinstallation first. Confirm the query and reinstall the program.
