New user - Windows install cannot process dataset immediately

pba_target

New user to webODM. Used the 3.3.0 windows installer on a windows 11 laptop (32gb of RAM, plenty of storage, reasonably specced i5).

Processing photos (only photos, no GCP file) from a DJI - processes on the lightning platform fine with default settings, but when doing it locally with default, the "upload" completes, but then within 5 seconds of processing starting a "Cannot Process Dataset" error is displayed in the progress bar.

Edit - logfile found, doesn't seem to be particularly clear. Will upload a log.

both files from the log folder for completeness.

Can you attach the task output? Expand the task, then turn on "Task output". It should have some more clues as to why it failed.

ImportError: DLL load failed while importing libpdalpython: An Application Control policy has blocked this file.

pba_target OP

Ok, I think the issue was Defender blocking the DLL load. I've added an exception and it seems to be processing the task - key was understanding the "task output" as the diagnostic - thanks for that, wasn't seeing anything in the logfile that made sense. As a UI improvement I'd maybe suggest defaulting task output to "On"?

Need more help?
