Dear Sherlp

I think that the error that OPAL throws may be due to a mismatch in the names of some Fieldsolver attributes. The regression test AmrRingCyclotron is not updated with the latest version of OPAL, nor with the master version, and moreover, it is not currently run with the other tests, so there is no maintenance tracking. Therefore, you should check that the fieldsolver attributes are correctly assigned with the accepted names according to the Manual.

I have detected some errors in your FIELDSOLVER command:

ITSOLVER options: "CG", "BICGSTAB", "GMRES"

AMR_MG_NORM options: "L1_NORM", "L2_NORM", "LINF_NORM"

Since OPAL 2021.1, all string variables are predefined internally in the code, so only some values are properly accepted. You must verify within the Manual the suitable names of those attributes

I'll try to update the regression tests related to AMR solver in order to avoid future mistakes

Cheers,

Pedro

Dear Sherlp

Did you compile with ENABLE_AMR and ENABLE_AMR_MG_SOLVER equals TRUE? (https://gitlab.psi.ch/OPAL/src/-/wikis/For-Developers/Compile-OPAL#user-content-configure-opal).
If that is not the case then the AMR example won't work, though I admit the error message is not very helpful. Did you already try another non-AMR example?

Best regards,
Jochem

Dear all,

I tried to run the example named AmrRingCyclotron in RegressionTests, but fails. It shows that

Error>

I looked up the manual but didn't find anything wrong with this .
