I have been trying to use gmsh on ElmerGUI sample angles3d.grd and keep getting the following error:

I'm working with a Kubuntu OS with a compiled from source Elmer system. System is less than 2 months old.

I don't see anything wrong. Please help!!

Hi,

I think the .grd file is for meshing in ElmerGrid directly, not in gmsh. ElmerGrid has some (however limited) meshing capabilities, using .grd files as input. See ElmerGrid manual. BTW that is what is stated in the first line of the .grd file... ;)

HTH,
Matthias
