Summary0001366: Simulation aborts - Looking for fvSolution in processor subdirectory
DescriptionSometimes for simulations with a long runtime the simulation aborts with the following MPI error:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
[0]
[0]
[0] --> FOAM FATAL IO ERROR:
[0] cannot open file
[0]
[0] file: /home/openfoam/OpenFOAM/projects/welle_validation/02_workbench_w_groove/transient/processor0/system/fvSolution at line 0.
[0]
[0] From function regIOobject::readStream()
[0] in file db/regIOobject/regIOobjectRead.C at line 87.
[0]
FOAM parallel run exiting
[0]
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

OpenFOAM is looking for the fvSolution file in the decomposed processor subdirectory which does not exist.

Shouldn't it look with the following path: processor0/../system/fvSolution

(it prints the 'object' path which is the unique identifier). It will have looked for system/fvSolution and then processor0/../system/fvSolution but couldn't find either. Looks like your file server (nfs?) has caused problems. Either fix that or switch off runtimeModifiable in your controlDict or have local copies of system/controlDict in all processor directories.
