Solver/Application:
mergeMeshes

Platform:
64bit linux (Debian), but I think it doesn't matter

Version:
OF-1.4 and OF-1.4.1

Notes:
It always a good idea to have an old version, because it works (on the same case and platform) with the OF-1.3 Hrv version without any problems.

This problem seems to remain in version 1.5.x, BUT in my case it probably has to do with the creation of functionObjects. When these are removed from the controlDicts, it works OK.

really thank to you

I struggle with same problem for 3 days.

the problem was solved with deleting function in controldict.
