hi, I looked at the rea file, and I see that the whole part about boundary conditions is missing: ***** FLUID BOUNDARY CONDITIONS ***** P 1 1 241.0000 3.000000 0.0000000E+00 0.0000000E+00 0.0000000E+00 E 1 2 2.000000 4.000000 0.0000000E+00 0.0000000E+00 0.0000000E+00 E 1 3 17.00000 1.000000 0.0000000E+00 0.0000000E+00 0.0000000E+00 P 1 4 16.00000 2.000000 0.0000000E+00 0.0000000E+00 0.0000000E+00 ... This is what causes the error that you cite below. Then, the line to load the restart file should be similar to the following: 1 PRESOLVE/RESTART OPTIONS ***** eddy_uv0.f00001 Then it should work.

Hi, Phillip

Thanks for your reply, but the dos2unix actually does not help. And I tried a lot to fix it up, including copy existing command from other examples .rea files to eliminate the error that might have something to do with the "CR and LF" stuff (I know little about these line breaks).

I am in Ubuntu, should this this be due to the failue of reading restart parameters?he

I have attached the .rea file. It would be greatly that you can have a look and give some advice.

Thanks in advance.

and have a nice weekend!

Hi, Nekers:

I recently want to do some simulation with Nek, so I followed the tutorial for the eddy_uv case

I have run the case without problem, but when I want to try the restart utility with the following modification instructed by the manual ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 PRESOLVE/RESTART OPTIONS ***** eddy_uv0.f00010 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- affter changing for a new case name and recompile, I started the restart run, but the logfile gives the following error : ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- mapping elements to processors 2 86 86 256 256 NELV 0 85 85 256 256 NELV 1 85 85 256 256 NELV RANK 0 IEG 133 134 135 136 149 150 151 152 161 162 165 166 167 168 177 178 179 181 182 183 184 193 194 195 196 197 198 199 200 201 202 203 204 205 206 207 208 209 210 211 212 213 214 215 216 217 218 219 220 221 222 223 224 225 226 227 228 229 230 231 232 233 234 235 236 237 238 239 240 241 242 243 244 245 246 247 248 249 250 251 252 253 254 255 256 element load imbalance: 1 85 86 done :: mapping elements to processors

Thanks, hope it is a minor mistake.
