hi friends!
i am trying to use command "fluentMeshToFoam" to building a .msh file that created in Gambit, in OpenFOAM. but when i use this command . it seems to half of the operations are truly worked, but half of them are faild!! beacause i can see these messages ( i put just the errors here):


#0 Foam::error:rintStack(Foam::Ostream&) in "/opt/openfoam221/platforms/linux64GccDPOpt/lib/libOpenFOAM.so"
#1 Foam::sigSegv::sigHandler(int) in "/opt/openfoam221/platforms/linux64GccDPOpt/lib/libOpenFOAM.so"
#2 in "/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6"
#3
in "/opt/openfoam221/platforms/linux64GccDPOpt/bin/fluentMeshToFoam"
#4 __libc_start_main in "/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6"
#5
in "/opt/openfoam221/platforms/linux64GccDPOpt/bin/fluentMeshToFoam"
Segmentation fault (core dumped)


what is the matter? and i should say that after this there is no result in "polyMesh" directory, that we usually expecting to see the results of mesh building in this directory( polyMesh i mean) .
All the best!

Well, if you created the file in Gambit and you try to convert it to FOAM, why don't you just use gambitToFoam instead of exporting the Gambit mesh converted for fluent and then convert it from fluent to FOAM? I could think of conversion errors that occur on that way.

Is your .msh 2D? Because fluentMeshToFoam is for 2D meshes. For 3D .msh conversion use fluent3DMeshToFoam.

gamitToFoam doesn't work from my experience... But maybe things have improved in last years..
