Hi Guys, URGENT HELP NEEDED. I tried running a simulation today but was met with this error. Anyone seen it before or knows what is the issue and how to solve? Thank you! Please help...

[Rob]

What were you doing when you got the error? What's above that in the output?

[Joshua Chiew]

I was trying to run the simulation by reading the journal.

[Rob]

What are the journal commands? The material warnings are just a result of Fluent's inbuilt FSI tool, and shouldn't show up on the more recent versions of the code. 

[Joshua Chiew]

This is the journal commands. Thank you

[Rob]

Why did you read a data file in if you're going to initialise the flow? 

[Joshua Chiew]

So I should remove the initialize part?

[Rob]

Only if you don't want to use the data you just read in. 

[Joshua Chiew]

Okay. Thank you. But how about the error? what's causing it? They said there's an "=" but there isnt anywhere on my journal

[Rob]

I don't think you're looking for "=", it's saying the error state is equal to an invalid argument. If you created the journal on Win10, is the cluster running Win10 or LINUX? If the latter did you use dos2unix to strip out stray Windows characters?
