andrew@andrew-VirtualBox:~/OpenFOAM/andrew-2.3.0/run/andy$

I'm running checkMesh (

checkMesh -allGeometry -allTopology

) to debug this invalid face error that I get when running decomposePar before a parallel simulation. I also find it curious that checkMesh reports that I have 95060 faces, when the invalid face error says the max face index is 24341... I can upload/link any files needed.
