I am getting following error:-

--> FOAM FATAL IO ERROR:
Wrong token type - expected word, found on line 183: punctuation '['

file: /home/ashwinikumar/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-9/etc/controlDict.DimensionSets.SICoeffs.kg at line 183.

From function Foam::Istream& Foam:perator>>(Foam::Istream&, Foam::word&)
in file primitives/strings/word/wordIO.C at line 79.


Can anyone help me with the issue?

I solved this issue but another arrived as follows:-

--> FOAM FATAL IO ERROR:
Entry 'version' not found in dictionary "/home/ashwinikumar/ASHWIN/system/controlDict"


file: /home/ashwinikumar/ASHWIN/system/controlDict

From function bool Foam::dictionary::readEntry(const Foam::word&, T&, Foam::keyType:ption, bool) const [with T = float]
in file lnInclude/dictionaryTemplates.C at line 319.

FOAM exiting

In my controlDict the version of OpenFOAM is mentioned. I dont know why this error is coming.

Check if header of controlDict is ok.

Means content inside

FoamFile
{ }

I am trying to run one of the tutorial files here and I find nothing wrong in the header
