Blender Version
Broken: version: 2.90.0, branch: master (modified), commit date: 2020-08-31 11:26, hash: rB0330d1af29c0

Short description of error
Blender fluid simulation crashes randomly when clicking Free/Bake button

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error

  1. Open the attached blend file

FX_SmokeTrail_V01.zip101 KBDownload

  1. Switch viewport to rendered mode
  2. Select the domain and bake the animation
  3. Make some changes to the force objects in the scene
  4. Free the baked animation and bake again
  5. Play animation to preview baked result
  6. Repeat 2 or 3 more times if needed

Result: Blender will randomly crash on clicking either Bake or Free Bake button depending on the state of the domain. It takes 1-3 attempts on average
Expected: Blender won't crash

Thanks for the report, I can confirm this. Actually in 2.90 the file crashes immediately when I activate cycles. In 2.91 alpha it doesn't crash at all though.

terminate called after throwing an instance of 'openvdb::v7_0::ValueError'
  what():  ValueError: can't construct a dense grid with an empty bounding box
Aborted (core dumped)

I don't have a debug build of 2.90 around to test with right now though, so I'm not sure if this is an issue with Mantaflow or Cycles

Yes, sometimes I can get to the rendered view, other times it crashes already at that point.

As soon as the baking was over, I had a problem with OpenCL:

But I can't reproduce it anymore.
And I don't see the error message reported by @Hans Goudey (HooglyBoogly)

Does this problem has been fixed?

No issues with 2.91 here as well.

@Ludvik Koutny (rawalanche) Please download build from https://builder.blender.org/download/ and check if you can reproduce.

The crash was introduced in rB9280fb19e4ff and so unfortunately just made it into the 2.90 release.

For 2.91 there was a refactor in Cycles (rBaa1e4baa22b3) which seems to have fixed the issue. Closing!
