Hello Every one,
The problem is when i read mesh on fluent it shows that it have an error and i think that i was making some mistake in meshing.

The error:
eading "D:Mesh\fluent.msh"...

I tried again with different mesh file that i have done long back it was reading with out any error.

I did two different model recently and also one easy model to test and all the model i did now show the same error. i feel that i'm the one who is making the error.

I would appreciate help on this. Thank you!
