mpirun detected that one or more processes exited... on remotely accessed
 

Hi,

I have been working with OpenFoam for the last few months. Now I wanted to continue working from home ( Home quarantined :o) . I am accessing a workstation via Remote desktop connection from my laptop.

A parallel running of a dambreak case on 16 processors gives the following error:
"
Primary job terminated normally, but 1 process returned
a non-zero exit code.. Per user-direction, the job has been aborted.
-------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
mpirun detected that one or more processes exited with non-zero status, thus causing
the job to be terminated. The first process to do so was:

Process name: [[27991,1],0]
Exit code: 145 "
Any help please!

Note that: a) similar cases were working fine when I was working in my office.
b) The same case is working fine in my laptop
c) The same case with a single processor is ok in the workstation
d) I am connected via VPN to the company's internet to access the workstation.

I got the same error
 

I ran:
decomposePar

then:
mpirun -np 3 interMixingFoam -parallel


And then I have got the same error:

Kindly someone help me with this issue.

I found the error. My computer's username has a space in it so that was the problem.
Unfortunately, the username can not be changed...

Looks like a windows mapping issue. The easy solution, which normally works fine, is to enable spaces.

In the etc/controlDict


This will likely get it working for you.
