Hi All,

I am using OpenFOAM-1.4.1-dev_07_11_14, and created mesh using block mesh of diesel engine cylinder. Then i tried to convert it to ensight format using foamToEnsight and i receive this error:

--> FOAM FATAL ERROR : Cannot move points: size of given point list smaller than the number of active points

From function primitiveMesh::movePoints(const pointField& newPoints, const pointField& oldPoints)
in file meshes/primitiveMesh/primitiveMesh.C at line 251.

FOAM aborting
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Then found this post " http://www.cfd-online.com/Forums/openfoam-bugs/62467-cannot-refinemesh-usehextopology-true-ver141.html" where mattijs suggest to replace 1.4.1 dynamicMesh/meshCut/meshModifiers/multiDirRefinemen/multiDirRefinement.C with attached versio. I did as suggested and during compilation i receive this error:

meshCut/meshModifiers/multiDirRefinement/multiDirRefinement.C:351: error: ‘class Foam:olyTopoChange’ has no member named ‘changeMesh’
make: *** [Make/linuxGccDPDebug/multiDirRefinement.o] Error 1
make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....

Anyone got any suggestion to solve this?
Thanks in advance.

Regards
Arun

Did you check if the same error occurs with the OpenFOAM-1.5.x version?
There's not much point in trying to track an error from a previous release that is already 1-1/2 years old.

Hi Olesen,

Thanks for your reply and i have not tried this with OpenFOAM-1.5.x version. This is because, the version i am using currently has been modified with codes that suitable for OpenFOAM-1.4.1-dev_07_11_14 version. I tried to modify the OpenFOAM-1.5.x to what i have now but too many other errors.

I am not very good with C++ and new to FOAM, so i discarded the idea of shifting to OpenFOAM-1.5.x and stick to OpenFOAM-1.4.1-dev_07_11_14 version where i only have the errors that i mentioned in my previous post.

Therefore i have no choice but to use OpenFOAM-1.4.1-dev_07_11_14 version.
Hope anyone can help solve this.

Thanks in advance.

Arun
