invalid command error

October 3, 2006, 10:07

Hi everybody, I am running Fluent in the batch mode using the following script and I am getting 'invalid command' error right after it reads the file. However, it works when I type it in the interactive mode. I used to run this script with exactly the same model with slightly different geometry.

Anyone has an idea what the problem might be?

Thankssss a lot.

I use Fluent on Windows and this error appears when i save journal file in UTF-8. If I use ANSI (default encoding in MS Notepad), everything is OK.

ANSI encoding

Code:

Reading journal file C:\path\scale.jou...

> mesh/scale 0.001 0.001 0.001

same journal UTF-8 encoding

Code:

Reading journal file C:\path\scale.jou...

> ď»żmesh/sinvalid command [ď»żmesh]
cale 0.001 0.001 0.001

This 'solution' is still valid in Fluent 2021R1.
