Crashed user libraries due to compiling them while running a simulation

juhuettn · June 1, 2015, 03:48

Hello there,

I made a mistake and compiled a library while I was using this library in a running simulation. Now OpenFOAM does not recognise any of my user libraries anymore. Also new compiled libraries seem to be unknown when I want to use them by writing them into the controlDict file.

Anybody got an idea how to fix this issue?

thanks a lot,
Julian

Have you checked in the $FOAM_USER/lib folder (not so sure of the variable name) to see if the library is still present?

It might be a good idea to wclean, and then wmake the library again from scratch. That should solve the issue.
