strange, i was not aware that the slur needs to start before the next
bar line:
r8| r2 r4 r8 f8 | f4 f8. f16 f2~ ( | f1~ | f1~ | f4. e8^> f4. ges8^> | f4. e8
[fis e] f4~ | f2) r2 works fine
or is this some internal problem?

Apparently you are not yet aware of how slurs and beams are entered. If
a slur starts on a note, you write ( after the note. Similarly if a
beam starts on a note, you write [ after the note.
So instead of ( f1~ you presumably mean f1~( and instead of
f4, e8 [fis e] you should likely be writing f4, e8 fis[ e] .
