I don't think the over crank is a problem.
Why is it shutting off?
Find the owners manual to find out if there is some fault that will shut it down or it may be an engine problem like the choke not releasing after starting.
To find a manual online you will need the make and model number of your generator.

SOURCE: overcrank error message

The 'overcrank' error simply means it tried to start but never actually started. It cranked for an extended period. Check the fuel and starting issues you would normally check to start the engine.

It could be either your start capacitor or the contactor-relay. Or you could try cleaning the contacts of the relay with an emery board to see if there is a change.

I have a 20kw es onan generator that had a bad alternator. i replaced it and now the engine shuts down after a couple of minutes with an overcrank error.

Overcank failure means the engine failed to start.

IOWs, the control module commanded a crank engine but received no indication that engine ran.

Now your engine obviously runs, so the fault is likely rpm sense into or by lectronic control module.
