Hello all,
I am trying to run the wigley hull tutorial on OpenFoam 2.0.0.
I have built the mesh using snappyHexMesh and I ran the LTSInterFoam computations. No error, eveything went well.
But then, when I run paraFoam, I can see the mesh, but when playing and displaying any vector like U or p, they would mysteriously disappear (I cannot select them instead of "Solid color"), and when clicking "apply" again, paraView closes automatically and I receive the following error message :
"
created temporary 'wigleyHull.OpenFOAM'
--> FOAM Warning :
From function polyMesh::readUpdateState polyMesh::readUpdate()
in file meshes/polyMesh/polyMeshIO.C at line 204
Number of patches has changed. This may have unexpected consequences. Proceed with care.


--> FOAM FATAL IO ERROR:

file: /home/alex/OpenFOAM/stephy-2.0.0/run/tutorials/multiphase/LTSInterFoam/wigleyHull/100/nut from line 18 to line 12043.

From function Field<Type>::Field(const word& keyword, const dictionary&, const label)
in file lnInclude/Field.C at line 236.

FOAM exiting
"

I checked the files mentionned, but I couldn't find where this value of 182759 comes from, I couldn't find it in any file.

Could you please help me if you have any idea of what could solve the problem ?

Thank you very much,

Stephy

Try renaming the "0" folder to something like "0.org" and then renaming the "2" folder to "0". Otherwise openFoam (or maybe paraFoam) gets somehow confused with the original mesh before using snappyHexMesh. That solved the problem for me.

Dear Francisco,
I have the same problem above, I tried to use your solution and I changed the zero file name to 0.org. but what do you mean by( the"2" folder ). please write to me
