Summary0000476: tutorial running failure
DescriptionHi, when I run the oscillating Box tutorial from Oscillating box example - $FOAM_TUTORIALS/incompressible/potentialFreeSurfaceFoam/oscillatingBox, after blockMesh, I run checkMesh for checking the mesh, and then there's an error msg:
Oscillating box example - $FOAM_TUTORIALS/incompressible/potentialFreeSurfaceFoam/oscillatingBox.
And when I tried to run "potentialFreeSurfaceFoam" the error msg appeared:
Create mesh for time = 0


PIMPLE: Operating solver in PISO mode

Reading field p (kinematic)

Hi all
I have understood now that this is not a bug. The thing is when running the tutorial just use ./Allrun
Only blockMesh and run is not enough.

Sorry for any spam. Please list this as solved. Thank you!

This tutorial performs a number of steps prior to running the solver, and should be run using the Allrun script provided, i.e.:

blockMesh
topoSet
subsetMesh -overwrite c0 -patch floatingObject
cp -r 0.org 0 > /dev/null 2>&1
potentialFreeSurfaceFoam
