Flow through pipe bend tutorial - Solver Error

The error says that you have specified two boundary conditions at the same location (inlet). Why not change it?

The intention was obviously not to specify two boundary conditions at the inlet,

there is no-slip at the walls, symmetry of the side faces and inflow and outflow boundary conditions specified.
