Message that pops up when converting the restart files: No mesh face dir exits

Hello,
When I was trying to post-process my restart files the message "Results have been converted. No mesh face dir exits." is displayed. My restart files are able to generate the vtu and vtp files but no .txt files are generated. I have double checked that I am in the correct directory with all the required files but I'm still having trouble in generating the .txt files. The mesh-complete folder has the mesh-surfaces folder and the restart files are all in the 24-procs_case folder. I am using the newest SimVascular mac version 2021.09.30 and I have also tried using the mac version 2021.06.15 version. Any help would be greatly appreciated! The image shows how the directory is set up:

Thank you,
Kelly Cao

Hi Kelly,

What I think is causing the error is that you have a Simulations file named aorta.sjb but a Simulations directory named Unsteady. Simulations directories need to have the same names as the .sjb files so SV is trying to open a directory named aorta under Simulations.

The SV message displayed is not very helpful. I've created a GitHub Issue for this (https://github.com/SimVascular/SimVascular/issues/975).

Cheers,
Dave
