bview error

[Edoardo Cipriano]

Dear all,

I get this strange output from bview2D:

restore(): error: file version mismatch: 0 (file) != 170901 (code)

I am running a simulation which writes different dump files, and I get this error only with specific ones. Other dumps written by the same simulation are fine.

Do you have any idea why this happens?

Best,

Edoardo

Hi Edoardo,

> restore(): error: file version mismatch: 0 (file) != 170901 (code)

restore() checks the start of the file for a tag encoding the file
format of the dump file. Here for example '0' is the tag in the file and
170901 is the expected version number (i.e. 1 september 2017) for the
file format (other formats are also possible, check the source code).

'0' is not a recognised dump file format.

One explanation is that your dump file is corrupted.

hope this helps,

Stephane

Hi Stephane,

Thank you very much for your prompt reply.

I will try to investigate why these files get corrupted. It seems to happen just in parallel simulations with a high number of processors.

Best,

Edoardo
