Error updating cell mesh in system mesh

      When I connect mesh with fluent in workbench I get update sign at mesh and when i update i get this error: Update failed for the Mesh component in Mesh. Error updating cell Mesh in system Mesh.


      In Mesher is error stated as: The mesh file exporter failed during translation. Please send your data to your support provider.


      I checked the name selection and is ok. I were doing face meshing so volume is 0. When I tried with thickness 1mm I got same error. I also rename the file but error is still the same.


      Thank you for your help

      There's usually a better error than that. When you say face meshing does that mean it's a 2d model? If so, did you build the model on the xy plane and specify 2d before starting Meshing?

      I can't find better explanation for my error. My geometry is surface body. In Mesher is geometry defined as 3D with zero thickness. If I change that to 2D is error the same.

      Found the problem. File was in folder that had non english letters (?,š,ž). When I renamed folder it works fine. Thanks for your help
