Hi everyone,

I'm running a simulation for fluid flowing through a channel with cylinders in it using interFlow and i wanted to put a probe inbetween two cylinders. The simulation runs fine with no errors and using paraview the simulation looks similar to what i expected. The issue is that the probe is not producing any data as no postprocessing or probe folders with data are being created. I've attached the controlDict file below. Anyone have any suggestions or common issues that may cause this. I've played around with moving the probe location but that has not fixed it.

Code:
#include "../simSetup"
tEnd #calc "0.25*$L/$Ul";
writedt #calc "$tEnd/40.0";
dt1 #calc "$Co*$Ry/$nyForRy/$Ul/100.0";

application     interFlow;

startFrom       latestTime;

startTime       0;

stopAt          endTime;

endTime         $tEnd;

deltaT          $dt1;

writeControl    adjustableRunTime;

writeInterval   $writedt;

purgeWrite      0;

writeFormat     binary;

writePrecision  10;

writeCompression off;

timeFormat      general;

timePrecision   6;

runTimeModifiable yes;

adjustTimeStep  yes;

maxCo           $Co;
maxAlphaCo      $Co;

maxDeltaT       1;
maxCapillaryNum 1000;

libs
(
    "libpostProcess.so"
);


functions
{   
   freeSurface
   {
       type            surfaces;
       libs            ("libsampling.so");
       writeControl timeStep; // execute the codeWrite every writeInterval time steps
       writeInterval 100;
       surfaceFormat  raw;
       fields
       (
           alpha.bubble
       );
       surfaces
       (
           freeSurface
           {
               type        isoSurfaceCell;
               isoField    alpha.bubble;
               isoValue    0.5;
               interpolate false;
               regularise  false;
           }
       );
       interpolationScheme cellPointFace;
   }

   vorticity1
    {
        type            vorticity;
        libs            ("libfieldFunctionObjects.so");
        writeControl    writeTime;
    }


};

probes
{
functionObjectLibs ( "libsampling.so" );

type probes;



// Name of the directory for probe data
name probes;
writeControl timeStep;
writeInterval 10;


// Fields to be probed
fields (
	p
	U
	);



probeLocations
(
(0 0 0.02)
);
}
Apologies If i have missed out any key information i am fairly new to openfoam/CFD-online

Many thanks
