im using pyfoam in parallel mode but it doesn't draw residuals during the run.how it can be solved to see residual figures?

For serial runs it worked with the same solver/case Also: usually pyFoam needs 2 or 3 timesteps to start plotting. Sometimes people get impatient with large cases. In very rare cases (but this is only a handful of solvers) pyFoam can't detect the current timestep because the writer of the solver chose to not output the current time in the "Time = x.xx"-form. In those cases a different pattern can be specified.

Thanks.I haven't used plot in the name.but now when I use "pyFoamPlotRunner.py --procnr=8 rhoCentralFoam" command and error appears as below:

mpirun -np 8 rhoCentralFoam -parallel the reason why I thinnk that your run has failed is that you have a very small timestep (1e-10) but nevertheless the courant in the beginning is approx 60. This looks like the run is exploding because of inappropriate initial conditions. But if you confirm that the run works without PyFoam I will look into it

yes the run is performed without pyfoam(although it crashes at the middle of running due to another reason) but with pyfoam it crashes at initial runs.when the courant is 60?

Reason could be for instance that Gnuplot didn't start up properly. Which is strange. Starting PlotRunner ON THE SAME MACHINE works in serial?

yes by rhoCentralFoam | tee log it works until .0006s.initial conditions are like that in shock tube.i have attached the case in another thread "an uncovered error.please help".could you have a look to it?
Thanks. |

To check whether pyFoam/Gnuplot is broken run the watcher on the log file pyFoamPlotWatcher.py log To summarize: - pyFoamPlotRunner.py in parallel: FAILS - no PyFoam ("rhoCentralFoam | tee log") in serial: WORKS - pyFoamPlotRunner.py in serial: UNSURE (you never said explicitly) - no pyFoam in parallel ("mpirun -np 8 rhoCentralFoam -parallel | tee log"): HAVE you already tried this? Also: have you tried pyFoamRunner.py (no plotting) to rule out the possibility that "only" plotting is the problem?

thanks for your precise categorization.gnuplot was not installed properly at my advisor's room.
