Dear OpenFoam users,

I was just playing with some test cases in the OpenFOAM directory $WM_PROJECT_DIR/applications/test/mesh.

When I was trying to compile the Test-mesh.C file by typing wmake in the terminal. It gives me a lot of errors (see attached compile log). I am quite a new user of OpenFoam and I don't know how to solve this problem.

Can anyone help me ?

Many Thanks,
Zheng

I solved this problem by simply reinstall the OpenFOAM.
