Hello everyone
I am simulating the flow in a pipe with an obstacle. I am trying to decompose my case to 4 and 8 parts but I fail to do that.
My decomposeParDict file is like this:

object decomposeParDict;
}

}

hierarchicalCoeffs

}

metisCoeffs
{
processorWeights ( 1 1 1 1 );
}


manualCoeffs
{
dataFile "";
}


distributed no;

roots ( );

But it won't work.
Could anyone tell me if there is something wrong.
Thanks

I succeeded to break my case into 8 parts. But now the problem is that when I want to start the computations using channelFoam I get the following error:
--> FOAM FATAL IO ERROR:
[0] keyword Ubar is undefined in dictionary "/home/OpenFOAM/nak/run/melika/case5/processor0/constant/transportProperties"

However I can run my case with pisoFoam.

Dear libra
use decomposePar -force to reproduce your test caes.

Thanks everyone. My problem is solved.
