Hi, I'm trying to convert a .msh file into an O.F. file. I read the user manual and I saw that O.F. has an utility named fluentMeshToFoam. To launch this utility is quite simple, from the shell I write the command <<util>> after <<fluentMeshToFoam -case allThePathInWhichMyFileIs MyFile.msh>>. If I write the command in this way (with this spaces between the words) I occur this error message:



Create time



--> FOAM FATAL IO ERROR:
cannot find file

file: home/francesco/OpenFOAM/francesco-2.1.0/run/tutorials/combustion/chemFoam/h2/system/controlDict at line 0.

From function regIOobject::readStream()
in file db/regIOobject/regIOobjectRead.C at line 73.

FOAM exiting



Please help me! I'm using O.F. 2.1.0, on ubuntu 11.10, the file .msh is regulary in ASCII format, I put the file in the tutorial directory <<home/.../h2>> so O.F. can find the file controlDict, I give it the command -case to tell that the directory isn't the default one but it give me always the same error and I don't know what else I can do.

Best regards.
