Hi,

I am new to OpenFoam and am trying to use the oodles solver in parallel( on a quad dual-core processor machine).However i get the following error which iam enclosing below. The serial version works fine though. Can i get some help on this issue.

Thanks

One of the processes started by mpirun has exited with a nonzero exit
code. This typically indicates that the process finished in error.
If your process did not finish in error, be sure to include a "return

Any reason why there is a space between '10' and '/p'?

Are the files there? decomposePar will have decomposed the fields from the serial version. Check to which time directory.

[sriharsha]

Hi,
Thanks for the reply. There is no space between between 10 and /p. I have checked the file
10/p and it exists and i am able to read it.

The case name is wall_m_cyl and the directory structure is wall_m_cyl/10/p.
when i use decompose par it created folders processor0 and processor1 in wall_m_cyl/ directory which also contains folders for all time steps.

I am i doing something wrong here

[msrinath80]

Post your case here if possible. Just the directory layout and dictionaries. No points, faces etc.

[sriharsha]

Hi,
The directory structure is as follows

case : wall_m_cyl
************************************
ls wall_m_cyl/

constant
processor0
processor1
system
0
0.1
...and other intermediate timesteps ...
10
*************************************
ls wall_m_cyl/10

B k nuSgs nuTilda p U

[msrinath80]

Alright, list out the contents of the 'p' file.

[sriharsha]

Hi,
I am able to fix the issue with the /10/p file. Now when i try to run the code in parallel, i get the error "" No buffer space available". I use the command
export MPI_BUFFER_SIZE=400000000 to increase the buffer size to a point at which i do not see this error. But now my simulation gets stuck. I am attaching the output below. I would appreciate if i could get some help on this issue.( i have 695,000 cells in my domain and am using 4 processors)

Thank you

Make sure you run lamwipe before a lamboot as Mattijs suggests in one of the posts. Also are you on a 64 bit machine? What does echo $WM_64 tell you? How much memory do you have on this machine? How many cells does checkMesh report?

[sriharsha]

Hi,
Yes i am using lamwipe before using lamboot. I am on a 64-bit machine. echo $WM_64 says "on".
My machine has 32 GB of memory. checkMesh reports
695000 hexahedral cells as expected.
