Good Day,

In my script, I have;

compute Nforces all pair/gran/local id pos force
dump dmpforces all local 1000 post/dump*.data_f c_Nforces[1] c_Nforces[2] ...upto.. c_Nforces[12]

and also

dump dump all custom 1000 post/dump*.data id type x y z ix iy iz vx vy vz fx fy fz omegax omegay omegaz radius

I can successfully use;

lpp dump*.data (and generate VTKs)

However, with

lpp dump*.data_f

I get an error

Working with 8 processes...
calculating chunks 1 - 8 of 30
aborting due to errors: 'id'
dump scaling status is unknown
dump scaling status is unknown
dump scaling status is unknown

I look forward to your kind help.
Thanks.

Hello,

I got the same error when I tried to convert my dump files. See my post on August 10, ''dump scaling status unknown'' (https://www.cfdem.com/forums/dump-scaling-status-unknown-0)... In my case, I modified my dump file to add two lines in the header with the timestep of my simulation. I don't know if it can help you. I didn't find any solution so far... So I would be very happy to hear about that also.

Thank you
Christine
