Summary0003182: Error in Foam::pimpleControl::loop() at ??:?
DescriptionWhen running a case (specifically the square cavity with rhoPimpleFoam with laminar as the turbulence model) using the outerCorrectorResidualControl subdictionary the following fpe error shows up at some time step (not at the beggining, and it's not always at the same time step when varying input parameters):

#0 Foam::error::printStack(Foam::Ostream&) at ??:?
#1 Foam::sigFpe::sigHandler(int) at ??:?
#2 ? in "/lib64/libc.so.6"
#3 Foam::convergenceControl::getInitialResiduals(Foam::fvMesh const&, Foam::word const&, int, Foam::ITstream&, double&, double&) at ??:?
#4 Foam::singleRegionCorrectorConvergenceControl::corrCriteriaSatisfied() const at ??:?
#5 Foam::pimpleLoop::loop(Foam::correctorConvergenceControl&) at ??:?
#6 Foam::pimpleControl::loop() at ??:?
#7 ? at ??:?
#8 __libc_start_main in "/lib64/libc.so.6"
#9 ? at ??:?
Floating point exception (core dumped)

When adding the 'relaxationFactors' subdic in system/fvSolution, even though it contains no information on URF of fields or equations, the error disappears.
When adding an URF to e.g. U, the error appears again (at a different time step).
Steps To ReproduceI next upload to this report the case files, and in the system folder you'll find three fvSolution files, corresponding to the cases already mentioned. Rename any of the files to fvSolution and run rhoPimpleFoam.
Additional InformationI tried to run this exact case on another computer, which works with Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and the issues are exactly the same.
Trying to debug, the error occurs when the solver calls 'pimple.loop()' method.
TagsNo tags attached.

This sounds exactly like https://bugs.openfoam.org/view.php?id=3173. Could you check a more recent compilation of version 6 or dev?

Hi Will, yes, it's exactly the same. I downloaded v6 from openfoam.org 4 days ago. Have you made any change this week? Anyway I'm gonna check in the installation files if the changes you made are reflected on them.

Will, my installation files do not reflect what you changed as indicated in https://bugs.openfoam.org/view.php?id=3173
I'm really sure that I downloaded OpenFOAM 6 last monday from openfoam.org. Have I made anything wrong?

@joaquin: Which exact installation instructions did you follow?

I ask this because if you downloaded one of the versions that depends on the Ubuntu Deb packages, that was last updated on the 8th of January 2019.

@wyldckat: that makes sense, I downloaded the 6th version in Ubuntu last November. It was the version in the computer running Fedora that I downloaded last Monday. Anyway I'm not sure it's worth it to reinstall it, since it's just a matter of how to write the residualControl configuration as Will indicated in the related report, so it's not a real complication to face. Thanks anyway!
