Melissa writer unusable #77

Closed christoph-conrads closed 3 years ago

christoph-conrads commented 3 years ago

When Code_Saturne 6.0.5 or Code_Saturne 6.2.0 are run with writer format "melissa", then the solver terminates with an error message before calling any Melissa code. Please let me know if you need more information.

Hello,

This is actually related to the fact that "auxiliary" writers use the same format as the "main" writer, and as explained in the error message, only one Melissa server is actually possible. Using multiple Melissa servers would require that Melissa propose a feature/API option to connect to separate separate servers from the same code, which does not seem to be the case in the present API. So this is a Melissa issue, not a code_saturne one.

In your case, I assume that you have a joining or periodicity mesh pre-processing step activated, given the error message. Using the default visualization level, a writer is used to check the correct joining. The joining info preprocessed here carries no physical field information so is not releveant for Melissa.

There are 2 possible setting solutions here:

christoph-conrads commented 3 years ago

Hi Yvan, thank you for these proposals.

  • lower the visualization level for mesh joining (set it to zero)

Relevant DATA/case1.xml snippet

  <solution_domain>
    <joining>
      <face_joining name="1">
        <visualization>0</visualization>

This does not work for me, I get the same error message as before.

  • do not set the type of the main (results) writer to Melissa, but add a separate writer, and associate post-processing meshes to that writer instead of "results" (though using both is possible).

Here are screenshots of the changes that I made (see screenshots below):

This causes an error message that is only visible in the GUI log window and cannot be found in any log file:

I am checking if the Melissa code is causing the error message.

christoph-conrads commented 3 years ago

I am checking if the Melissa code is causing the error message.

Code_Saturne 6.0.5 contains two files with calls to MPI_Comm_dup and none of them are related to Melissa code:

code_saturne-6.0.5$ fgrep -lr MPI_Comm_dup
src/base/cs_file.c
src/fvm/fvm_to_catalyst.cxx

Increasing the number of processes to 2 fixes this problem and makes Code_Saturne run the Melissa initialization code. To change the number of processes in the GUI, go to "Run computation" and search for "Number of processes" in the new window.

YvanFournier commented 3 years ago

Hello,

Do you have a "run_solver.log" file in the exectution (RESU/) directory ? Could you post it ?

Otherwise, do you have the possiblity of running under a debugger (set "gdb" for advanced run options in the GUI), and put a breakpoint on MPI_Comm_Dup ? In case it is also called in a loaded library or some other subtle initialization effect occurs.

christoph-conrads commented 3 years ago

Hi Yvan,

Do you have a "run_solver.log" file in the exectution (RESU/) directory ? Could you post it ?

yes, here it is: run_solver.log

You can also have a copy of the Code_Saturne working directory including the directories DATA, MESH, and RESU.

MPI_Comm_dup is called in the Melissa source code outside of Code_Saturne. I need to take a look at the call site.

Hi @YvanFournier, would it be ok for Melissa to call MPI_Init if this was not done before?

YvanFournier commented 3 years ago

Hello,

Yes, as long as you check using MPI_Initialized whether it was already initialized or not. UI believe ParaView Catalyst does something similar.

Best regards,

Yvan

Hi Yvan,

then I will modify the Melissa code accordingly.
