Dear all,

I have a problem while trying to run simpleFoam.

I think I set all right, but I get this:

Code:
// * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * //
Create time

Create mesh for time = 0

Reading field p

Reading field U

Reading/calculating face flux field phi



--> FOAM FATAL IO ERROR: 
Unable to set reference cell for field p
    Please supply either pRefCell or pRefPoint


file: /root/Documents/OF_case1_test/system/fvSolution::SIMPLE from line 81 to line 89.

    From function void Foam::setRefCell
(
    const volScalarField&,
    const volScalarField&,
    const dictionary&,
    label& scalar&,
    bool
)
    in file cfdTools/general/findRefCell/findRefCell.C at line 115.

FOAM exiting
Does anyone know how to solve this?

Thanks,

Samuele
