I received this error when I was performing a mesh independence study. I was able to successfully run the first iteration (convergence with residuals, the mass flow was conserved, and the exit temperature reached a steady-state), but when I refined the mesh and attempted to re-run, I was given this error. I have researched some common causes online, such as making sure there is not a percentage in the folder name, but that is not the case. I've attached a picture of the error in the command window.

Hello What is your mesh quality on the new mesh? Also, are you reading this mesh on a fresh instance of Fluent?

The skew in that mesh is going to be horrible, but I wonder if the error is on opening the solver not reading the mesh. Can you post more of the text, you can expand the TUI window to do this.
