Hi,

I've just downloaded BlueCFD-Core.
I'm facing a trivial problem.

When I have to decompose my mesh, I have to set scotch as for decomposition method.

When I run snappyHexMesh I have to change to ptscotch method, otherwise snappyHexMesh.exe complains as it does not recognize that.

Is it possible to fix this?

Thanks a lot.

Late/quick answer: See this comment: https://bugs.openfoam.org/view.php?id=2275#c6938

Edit: Or simply let me quote myself from there:
Code:
Rough outline:

  In "decomposeParDict":

    #include "decompositionMethodDict"

  In "decompositionMethodDict":

    method scotch;

  In the script:

    echo "method scotch;" > system/decompositionMethodDict
    #...
    echo "method ptscotch;" > system/decompositionMethodDict
