interFoam Meshing Error
 
Hello everyone,

I have made a very simple mesh of a 2-D tank in which I wish to simulate waves. But I'm getting this error when I do checkMesh:

--> FOAM Warning :
From function entry::getKeyword(keyType&, Istream&)

FOAM exiting

My blockMeshDict file looks like this:

convertToMeters 1;

vertices

(20 0 0)
(20 0.1 0)
(0 0.1 0)

);

}

(4 6 10 9)
);
}

{
type empty;
faces

(4 5 9 8)
(2 3 7 6)

);
}

lower
{
type wall;
faces
(
(0 3 2 1)
);
}

atmosphere
{
type patch;
faces
(
(8 9 10 11)
);
}
);

mergePatchPairs
(
);


Line 54 is where I write a parenthesis sign while assigning the faces to inlet patch.

I don't understand what I'm doing wrong here. Please help.

Thanks,
Sagun
