Few times I have had the problem that after creating a simple uml diagram and then trying to open it days later I get the following error:

Unable to create this part due to an internal error. Reason for the failure: An exception was thrown during initialization

I tried openning the file with extension .umr~ by removing the “~” but still get the same error. This is getting kind of annoying. I am running build – 20050829-4.0.0-GA.

Help will be appreciated

LDJ,
Are there any errors in the log file? We have fixed a couple of these issues in our recent updates (4.0.1). I would definately recommend that you update to 4.0.2 if possible. For this current file , could you email it to support@genuitec.com with ATTN:Kapil as the subject and we’ll try to fix it ASAP. Sorry for the inconvenience.
