ParaView Postprocessing problems with cyclic boundaries
 

After changing two boundaries of my domain from wall to cyclic I can't load the data in paraView. The program shuts down and in the terminal window it says the following:

Anyone who can help me?

Hi Christian!

The problem with the cplus_demangle is a bit mysterious (In my opinion the program should have failed in the first place).

Anyway: the cause of the problem is a different one (and documented on the message board - you couldn't find it because the correct error message was never output due to the demangle problem). Go to the file $FOAM_SRC/OpenFOAM/lnInclude/CyclicPointPatchField.C. There at line 187 you will find a notImplemented statement. Comment that out. Recompile OF. Then your cyclic geometry should be postprocessable (nice word. Is it in any dictionary?).

Havn't checked whether this is fixed in 1.4

The case works fine when commenting out in CyclicPointPatchField.C and recompiling. Thank you for taking time. By the way, how do I find and solve the root to this problem, demangle in Linux (OpenSUSE 10.2)???

Continuing this discussion, I tried to run paraFoam for my channelOodles case under OpenFoam 1.4. I didn't see any error about demangle. However, I got the following error:

What is the cause for this?

Hello Ning,

I just encountered the same problem.

And if I want to introduce e.g. a cut, paraview crashes.

So, do you know any solution to this issue?

Thanks

Thanks for the hint, Matjis, but I'm using the 1.4.1-dev version, so this should work.

The error messages I get are the same as Ninq Yang, if I change the boundary from cyclic to wall in postproc, everythings fine.

Hello Mattijs,

I met the the same problem in today's release - OpenFOAM-1.5!

channelOodles - channel395
If I do not select side1, side2, inout1, inout2 in paravew, (all of these four sides are cyclic boundary), everythings fine!
