Error appear in Castellation step

[bladesaber]

Describe the bug
When I clicked the refine button in step 4(Castellation), an error "missing 1 required positional argument: returncode".
Figure below:

To Reproduce
follow steps of tutorial example "Mixing Pipe"

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: Ubuntu 20.04
• BaramMesh: 24.1.2

Additional context

Dear @bladesaber,
The difference between the previous steps and castellation step is that snappyHexMesh runs in parallel in castellation step.
So, I'm suspecting if correct MPI is configured properly.
As you might see in BARAM installation page, open MPI 4.2 or higher is required.
You may be able to check the environment like following.

jake@suse:~> mpi-selector --list
openmpi
openmpi4
jake@suse:~> mpi-selector --query
default:openmpi4
level:user
jake@suse:~> mpirun -V
mpirun (Open MPI) 4.1.4.0.ffb0adcdd677

Please check you environment and let me know.
Thank you.

[bladesaber]

Thanks for your response. I have checked the MPI version. But why there is no "libmpi.so.20" library.

Best Regard.

[jiban]

Which version of solver binary are you using?
Is it the latest solvers_linux_NF24.1.4.tar.xz?

[bladesaber]

Yes, is the latest solvers_linux_NF24.1.4.tar.xz

[bladesaber]

I find a similar library which I have, called "libmpi.so.40"

[jiban]

Yes, That should be in your LIBRARY path.
You may check it like following.
Please note that the part of /home/jake/workspace/baram should be changed accordingly.

[bladesaber]

I got completed same result as you. "libmpi.so.20 => not found"

[jiban]

The point is libmpi.so.40, and you have it like me according to your capture.
I will look into it in detail in my side and will inform you when I get something.

[jiban]

Hi, @bladesaber.
I found that the solver was compiled with wrong library, and I've updated BARAM and corresponding solver.

Would you please try again?

• baramcfd
• solvers_linux_NF24.1.6.tar.xz

[bladesaber]

Thans for all work. It is complete right now.
Is it possible to export the mesh as cgns/msh file?

[jiban]

I'm glad to hear that it's ok.
By the way, exporting as CGNS format is not supported.
I'm sorry for that.

[bladesaber]

Thank you very much. Baram is a pretty great package for my project. 👍
