Good day,
When I try to run the cavity tutorial in icoFoam, i get the following error when running blockMesh: /*---------------------------------------------------------------------------*\ | ========= | | | \\ / F ield | OpenFOAM: The Open Source CFD Toolbox | | \\ / O peration | Version: 1.5 | | \\ / A nd | Web: http://www.OpenFOAM.org | | \\/ M anipulation | | \*---------------------------------------------------------------------------*/ Exec : blockMesh Date : May 22 2009 Time : 23:01:49 Host : johano-laptop PID : 15708 Case : /home/johano/OpenFOAM/johano-1.5/FOAM_RUN/tutorials/icoFoam/cavity/constant/polyMesh nProcs : 1 // * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * // Create time cannot open file file: /home/johano/OpenFOAM/johano-1.5/FOAM_RUN/tutorials/icoFoam/cavity/constant/polyMesh/system/controlDict at line 0. From function regIOobject::readStream(const word&) in file db/regIOobject/regIOobjectRead.C at line 66. FOAM exiting Anyone knows what the problem might be? I cannot find the "..system/controlDict" directory within polyMesh... maybe that is the problem..but how do i get around this? Thank you. |

I am not an expert OpenFOAM user, but I checked the directory structure of the cavity problem on my computer, the file you are missing is into the directory /cavity/system/
I guess you need to check your PATH Let us Know if that helps and Good Luck |

You have to be in the cavity directory when you run the case. The problem is your pwd is polyMesh directory. change your directory and run
/home/johano/OpenFOAM/johano-1.5/FOAM_RUN/tutorials/icoFoam/cavity not /home/johano/OpenFOAM/johano-1.5/FOAM_RUN/tutorials/icoFoam/cavity/constant/polyMesh |
