FoamMeshToFluent

Hey All,
I'm currently working on a comparison between openFOAM and cfx, and therefore I need meshes in both formats. I started with the forward- and backward-facing steps of the tutorials and converted it with foamMeshToFluent without any error message. After that I tried to load the mesh into icemCFD to convert it to the cfx format. But an error occured which is obviously due to the last part of the converted fluent-mesh. Here a lot of 4s appear, which seems quite strange and looks like that:

4 29ff 2a00 299c 299b 141e 0
4 2a63 2a64 2a00 29ff 1482 0
))

(39 (12 symmetry bottom)())
(39 (13 symmetry top)())
(39 (14 pressure-outlet obstacle)())
(39 (15 pressure-outlet defaultFaces)())

I also tried to convert the openFOAM mesh after solving the problem, as this converter is presented as a post-processing tool but I got the same results. Does anyone know if this is a bug, or if this must be due to an input problem???
Or has anyone already a converted mesh of the tutorial examples (forward- or backward-facing step).

Cheers
