snappyHexMesh won't work - zeros everywhere!
As you can probably tell I'm rather new to OpenFoam.
I'm having some trouble with snappyHexMesh.
I think I have set the case up correctly but when I run it, it does not refine the mesh and produces lots of zeros.
The print out of the terminal is shown here:

Any help would be very much appreciated as I have a project due in tomorrow and have been trying to get this to work for the last few days.
Many thanks
