Failed to create HDF5 file

[wnstss]

Hello, Everyone,

I am new to dolfinx. When I excuted the diffusion_code.py in chapter2, I found there were some problems about xdmf as follows.
And the Diffusion_Gaussian_function_error.md is also attached.

RuntimeError Traceback (most recent call last)
Cell In [1], line 31
28 boundary_facets = mesh.locate_entities_boundary(
29 domain, fdim, lambda x: np.full(x.shape[1], True, dtype=bool))
30 bc = fem.dirichletbc(PETSc.ScalarType(0), fem.locate_dofs_topological(V, fdim, boundary_facets), V)
---> 31 xdmf = io.XDMFFile(domain.comm, "diffusion.xdmf", "w")
32 xdmf.write_mesh(domain)
34 # Define solution variable, and interpolate initial solution for visualization in Paraview

Could anyone give me some help?

Best regards,

Lei

How did you install DOLFINx?
What system are you running this on?
Is there already a diffusion.xdmf and diffusion.h5 file on your system? If so try removing them and rerunning the program

Hi, jorgensd,

Thank you very much for your quick reply.
I used Docker destop to run Fenicsx .
Althought the diffusion.xdmf and diffusion.h5 file were deleted, the same error occured.

Could you give me some more advice?

Thank you very much.

Best regards,

Lei

What underlying system are you running docker on?
Which docker image are you using?
Could you provide the exact commands you are running, and what output ls -l gives in the current directory you are running the code from.

Hi, jorgensd,

Thank you very much.
I made some mistakens in inputting the code (dolfinx-tutorial/chapter2/diffusion_code.htm).
Now I got the expected results.

Best regarads,

Lei
