Issue - RC or Agisoft Alembic Export Error:

[ERROR  ] module 2/5 process.pipeline.transform.gl_uv_reprojection failed: 
RESULT: 1
OUTPUT: 
Pinged your deployment! You successfully connected to MongoDB!
STDERR: 
[tid:  15252][W] Logging to '%LOCALAPPDATA%\M-XR\Maestro\Logging\gl-uv-reprojection\gl-uv-reprojection_20250205-025816.log', use argument --print to log to console
[tid:  15252][C] Cannot extract a number from: 00011.png

Resolution:

This is usually something to do with your export settings in your photogrammetry software, please follow our export configurationarrow-up-right if using Reality Capture or this Agisoft page in our docs.


Issue:

Prepared JPEG Data for photogrammetry looks high contrast.

Resolution:

Currently for the jpeg based workflow brightness control is the only setting offered.

You can use the EXR workflow and edit the contents of the EXR (brightness, contrast, LUT, color space, tone mapping). However it is extremely important the filename, resolution, aspect ratio and orientation are preserved exactly.

We don't use the pixel values in the photogrammetry images so you are free to adjust them in any way to help your photogrammetry.


Issue - Connection to database:

Resolution:

This is quite likely an antivirus/security software blocking access. You may also see the Windows Security Smart Card pop up at this point. Please see this page and follow the necessary steps to solve the issue.


Issue:

IIQ images not working for exposure calibration.

Resolution:

We are working on a resolution for this.


Error:

[C] CheckGLR: No models in scene for contributing to memory calculation!

Resolution:

This likely means there was no mesh exported in the alembic file, be sure to re-export with the correct settings from your chosen photogrammetry software. You can find the export settings for Reality Capture under the photogrammetry page in our docs.


Error:

[W] Cannot find source photo in source directory

Resolution:

This quite likely means that your RAW image dataset has been moved or deleted. In the Marso Measure process step, the software will look for your RAW files in the same path you configured in the develop step, so be sure to keep the folder in the same location and do not delete it.


Error:

[C] Fatal Error: Mesh polycount and size of textures exceeds available VRAM! Possible fix is reduce polycount by: 0

Resolution:

This is quite likely to Marso Measure not fully utilising the GPU on your system, to fix this please do the following:

  1. Go to Settings → System → Display

  2. Scroll → Graphics

  3. Add the Marso Measure app:

    • Desktop app → Browse → select the .exe

  4. Click the app → Options

  5. Set to:

  6. Save and restart the app.

Error:

Fatal Error: There are more frames in the scene than frames in the scan: 195 > 5

Resolution:

This means there is a mismatch between the camera count in your alembic file and the amount of images in your RAW image dataset when the job was created, these need to match up for Marso Measure to be able to process further.


Error:

The system cannot find the path specified.

Resolution:

This quite likely means that your dataset has been moved or deleted. In the Marso Measure process step, the software will look for your files in the same path you configured in the develop step, so be sure to keep the folder in the same location and do not delete it.


Error:

[W] metadata key 'ExposureTime' values differ: 1/160 =/= 1/250

Resolution:

This means that your shutter speeds do not match up, either in your RAW scan or between your calibration image you used when creating your exposure system and your RAW scan.

Marso Measure requires identical manual camera settings in your RAW scan and your calibration image.


Error:

[C] Cannot extract a number from: 00xxx.png

Resolution:

This is usually something to do with your export settings in your photogrammetry software, please follow our export configurationarrow-up-right if using Reality Capture or this Agisoftarrow-up-right page in our docs.


Error:

[ERROR ] Cannot start Marso Processing Server on port 18070, already in use.

Resolution:

Check if a version of Marso Processing Server is is already running via Task Manager on your machine, if so terminate it. If the issue persists, please open a ticket via the button below.


Error:

Fatal Error: Uncaught ImportError: Error importing numpy: you should not try to import numpy from its source directory; please exit the numpy source tree, and relaunch your python interpreter from there.

Resolution:

There is a python virtual environment on your system interfering with Marso Measure, please clear it.


Error:

EXR file(s) have dimensions that don't match the camera settings.

Resolution:

This is quite likely an issue with your export of the ST maps from either Agisoft or Reality Capture, see the correct settings here.


Error:

Error invoking remote method 'alembic:open-file': IpcError: IPC_MESSAGE_START:Error opening alembic file: RangeError: Array buffer allocation failed

Resolution:

Marso Measure is unable to preview the alembic information in the UI, you can still proceed.
