Default Issues with fluid and geometry initialization

joswomo is on a distinguished road
I am very new to using the Flow-3D software, and am having issues with initializing fluid and geometry in my model.

I have loaded fluid properties in the Fluids widget, specified a fluid height in the Global tab of the Initial Conditions widget, and have fully created my geometry components in the Geometry widget.

However, when I run my simulation the Solver Summary gives the following readings:

time = 0.00000E+00, cycle = 0, dtstbl = 1.00000E+20, dtcode = na, delt = 1.00000E-03

volume occupied by fluid = 0.000000000000000E+00
avrck-adjusted volume of fluid #1 = 0.000000000000000E+00
total active solid component volume = 0.000000000000000E+00
avrck-adjusted solid component volume = 0.000000000000000E+00

mass and energy audits
mass-averaged mean kinetic energy = 0.000000000000000E+00
open volume in mesh = 0.000000000000000E+00
avrck-adjusted open volume in mesh = 0.000000000000000E+00
fill fraction of open volume = 1.000000000000000E+00
solidified fraction of fluid volume = 0.000000000000000E+00
total fluid mass = 0.000000000000000E+00
cumulative fluid mass source = 0.000000000000000E+00
total fluid #1 thermal energy = 0.000000000000000E+00
total mass of scalar species 1 = 0.000000000000000E+00
total solid thermal energy = 0.000000000000000E+00


I have spent a good amount of time searching around but since this is what I am guessing is a pretty low-level mistake I have not found any documentation on the issue.

Thanks in advance for any assistance.
