A strange error message

Hi
When I try to save a model I just built, I get a strange error:

The object 'Type: List Child tags: ' is not contained in a resource

Also, I get the same message when I try to run the model. I checked all possible things I can think of, but cannot find the cause.

I am running a 3D variably saturated flow problem with Richards equation and an ODE I have defined.

thanks a lot!

I experienced this error as well. Any new information as to how to resolve it?

Dulakshi,

I ran into the same strange error recently. I deleted some of the more complex features of my geometry and it let me save it just fine. After saving, I went back and rebuilt those features then tried saving again and it worked just fine.

Perhaps this will work for you (if applicable).

I rebuilt the geometry and it worked. Couldn't trace the exact cause though. thanks.

I got this message as well, and I exit the program, and when I tried to reopen the model I got the error message 'File contains no Model' - and now I can't open my model.

I'm running a magnetic field model, and all I changed was add another ampere's law.

Hi

switch to 4.2 or at least check that you have the latest patches, that should help

Good luck

I have the latest patch and version 4.2 and I still get this error.
