Running rhoCentralFoam in Parallel: Cannot find patchField entry for procBoundary

Hi,
I'm fairly new to OpenFOAM and am trying to run the rhoCentralFoam solver in parallel (with 8 processors). I keep getting the following error: "--> FOAM FATAL IO ERROR: Cannot find patchField entry for procBoundary0to3 file: home/mpiuser/OpenFOAM/mpiuser-3.0.1/run/henry/rhoCentralTest/processor0/0/p.boundaryField from line 25 to line 58. From function GeometricField<Type, PatchField, GeoMesh>::GeometricBoundaryField::readField(const DimensionedField<Type, GeoMesh&, const dictionary&) in file /home/openfoam/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-3.0.1/src/OpenFOAM/lnInclude/GeometricBoundaryField.C at line 209 FOAM parallel run exiting" I have tried creating placeholder procBoundary entries in the 0/p, 0/T and 0/U files inside the boundaryField dictionary in each of those files: boundaryField { inlet { type fixedValue; value uniform (100 0 0); } ... there are other patch entries here procBoundary0to1 // this is what I tried to add (for each processor to processor connection) { type processor; } } The error I get when I do this, however, is even more complicated and unintelligible. I feel like I am missing something simple. Is there a file or dictionary entry missing somewhere that is required for a rhoCentralFoam parallel run? Thanks, Henry |

Sometimes we miss stupid things: this is solved with a simple
"#include $WM_PROJECT_DIR/etc/caseDicts/setConstraintTypes" statement in each of the 0/* files. |
