Summary0002487: Error with sixDoFRigidBodyDisplacementPointPatchVectorField in parallel
DescriptionWhen a case using sixDoFRigidBodyDisplacement as the BC for a patch in the pointDisplacement field is decomposed and runs in parallel, the following error occurs: keyword solver is undefined in dictionary "case/processor0/0/pointDisplacement.boundaryField.body".
Additional InformationIt is associated with the write function in the sixDoFRigidBodyMotion library, which does not write the variables related to SixDoFSolver settings when called by sixDoFRigidBodyDisplacementPointPatchVectorField::write().
TagsNo tags attached.

Do you have a small case which reproduces this problem? All of the tutorial cases run fine using the newer and better sixDoFRigidBodyMotion specification so I do not have a case which fails.

I have added a case adapted from the floatingObject tutorial using the interDyMFoam solver. Execute Allrun script to attempt to run the case in parallel, which will exit with the error reported above.

One possible fix for this problem is to remove the deprecated sixDoFRigidBodyDisplacement BC altogether. Is there a particular reason why you need this BC rather than use the more flexible sixDoFRigidBodyMotion solver?

Not at all. I was just running some old simulations and encountered this issue so I chose to report it. I agree with you that the sixDoFRigidBodyMotion solver is better. Please do so if it is easier to remove this BC than to develop a fix with a lot of efforts. Thanks.

OK, thanks for the clarification. I think at this stage it is more efficient to move to the new method rather than spend effort maintaining legacy and deprecated functionality.
