Tips

To speed up the process of debugging and to avoid a lot of call backs, please give us as much information about your problem as possible up front. Besides an accurate description of your observed problem(s), including screenshots where suitable, a complete minimal working example showcasing the issue is most helpful. If you cannot provide a minimal working example, please upload the complete setup (USER_common_variables.dat, common_variables.dat, geometry and any other necessary files).

The following questions should be answered as accurately as possible:

  • Which version of MESHFREE has been used? What is the name of the executable?
  • Were other versions also tested? If so, which versions did work and which did not work?
  • What is the error message? It would be ideal to provide the entire stdout and stderr output for at least the last time step.
  • What is written in the warnings file?
  • How many MPI processes have been used overall? On how many nodes?
  • How many openMP threads have been used?
  • For how long has the simulation been running before the error occurred?
  • Can you send us the complete setup via the FileDrop below? Or at the very least the USER_common_variables.dat file?

For files that are too large for an email, you can use our Support Ticket File Drop:

We recommend to upload data as a single (encrypted) archive. Please ensure to add the ticket number to the name of each file, for example Files_Ticket12345.zip.
