Hi,

I am New to OpenFoam and was trying to run a test case "PitzDaily" to run in parallel according to instructions given on some help pages. But i am getting Following Error.

I have used Following command
"mpirun -np 2 simpleFoam pitzDailyParallel\ -parallel"
and before this decomposePar.


Code:
Usage: simpleFoam [OPTIONS]
options:
  -case <dir>       specify alternate case directory, default is the cwd
  -noFunctionObjects
                    do not execute functionObjects
  -parallel         run in parallel
  -roots <(dir1 .. dirN)>
                    slave root directories for distributed running
  -srcDoc           display source code in browser
  -doc              display application documentation in browser
  -help             print the usage

Using: OpenFOAM-2.1.1 (see www.OpenFOAM.org)
Build: 2.1.1-221db2718bbb

[0] --> FOAM FATAL ERROR: 
[0] Wrong number of arguments, expected 0 found 1

FOAM parallel run exiting
[0] 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
MPI_ABORT was invoked on rank 0 in communicator MPI_COMM_WORLD 
with errorcode 1.

NOTE: invoking MPI_ABORT causes Open MPI to kill all MPI processes.
You may or may not see output from other processes, depending on
exactly when Open MPI kills them.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
mpirun has exited due to process rank 0 with PID 21968 on
node ubuntu exiting without calling "finalize". This may
have caused other processes in the application to be
terminated by signals sent by mpirun (as reported here).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
If any body can help me to know what this error is all about.

Thank you

Regards

Your run command is wrong. Either just execute mpirun -np 2 simpleFoam -parallel, or mpirun -np 2 simpleFoam -case pitzDailyParallel -parallel
