Hi Greetz,

Sorry to hear about it. I have reprocessed the project and the processing is completed. You can now access your results.

@Kapil_Khanal I also have a project that is stuck processing. Estimate was 1 hour, it has now been several days. I am frightened to delete it because i don’t know if i will be able to re-upload it after that, could you please let me know if deleting would help?

Thank you!

Hello @jameso, I don’t see any projects on your account that are pending. I believe it might have already finished processing.

Hi @Kapil_Khanal , no it is still pending. Here is the link:

> Advanced photogrammetry software that uses images to create professional orthomosaics, point clouds, models and more.

it is in the project folder numbered 13018

@Jonathan_Dennis thank you!

this has happened again, albeit slightly differently. I now have a project that is returning just “error”, unspecified. No outputs available. There were 339 input images. I checked the FAQ on what to do, but nothing seemed relevant. Log text is as follows:

Hi jameso,

Thank you for reporting this. We are aware of this behavior and are working on a permanent fix.

Currently, this issue seems to appear randomly. We have rerun the processing for this project, and I can see that it has been successful.

As we work on solving this issue, please continue to report when you receive such errors, and we can reprocess from our end. We understand this is not ideal, but we appreciate your patience and pardon the inconvenience.

Regards,  
Jon

I just signed up for trial, and i have 110 credits, it says processing and it is stuck…i accidentlally uploaded 4 images at the end when the drone was returning home, does it screw up the processing?
