timeStep is not written !

Hello everyone,

I want to save case file of last step to continue the analysis in case of a need. You can check my controlDict file:

Code:

application     rhoSimpleFoam;

startFrom       latestTime;

startTime       0;

stopAt          endTime;

endTime         5000;

deltaT          1;

writeControl    timeStep;

writeInterval   5000;

purgeWrite      0;

writeFormat     ascii;

writePrecision   8;

writeCompression off;

timeFormat      general;

timePrecision   6;

runTimeModifiable true;

graphFormat     raw;

libs
(
    "libforces.so"
);

Normally, it was working with this settings but i cant be successful at of1912 with parallel running . Is there anyone who can see the problem in here ?

Thanks a lot!

did you modify anything from the solver code or any other code?

your controlDict looks fine.

Yeap the problem is solved. I modified -reconstructPar code with the same name ..
When i fixed the problem is gone. If there are someone who still need this info :
After your parallel run is done, you have to "reconstructPar -latestTime" or "reconstructPar -specifiedTime" .
