Hi,

I have a problem: When I try to open a file with the text commans rc or file - rcad Fluent says:

Error: File "xxx.cas" not found

Error object: #f

But the file is there!!! I tryed copying it into other directorys, but without success...

What is the remedy???

hi if you work under unix or linux you have to give the path ./directory/file Best regards Katya

Thank you for the fast answer!

Indeed, Fluent runs on a workstation. I hade cases, where it was working without the whole path... howeverm, I tried to add the path, but somehow it still doesnt work. Do I have do use "xxx" or [xxx]???

How it has to look like?

rc ["home/.../xxx.cas/"]

Is it right???

Hallo Ralf, it is working on my surver(Unix-machine) with rc /home/..../name.cas and I started Fluent from the directory, where is my inputfile (background execution). I hope it will help. Best regards Katya
