Hi @mostapha,
I’m trying to install OpenFoam in Windows 10 (Thursday I have the Butterfly workshop), but I get this error:
I have already viewed your video many times, but I can not find a solution.
Can you help me?
Thanks so much!

Ok. I solved by installing the new version (v1706).
Does this version work with butterfly?
I think so from the post on github …
Thanks.

The short answer is yes!
@MassimilianoBusnelli,
You installed .exe and not .tgz right? Can you please confirm? I intend to try this as well please.
Using .tgz requires the use of Ubuntu. That seems another challenge. Will it be ok to try the installer.exe for OpenFOAM v1706?
Same error on a Windows 10 PC with AMD Ryzen 7 1700X Eight-Core Processor and 16 GB of installed RAM. I have also tried to install the v1706 of OF without results. The image below is referred to the OpenFOAM_Start for the v 1706
I tried also to use this in docker:
cd \c
cd ‘Program Files (x86)’
cd ESI/OpenFOAM/1612/Windows/Scripts
docker load -i of_v1612plus_centos66.tar
For version 1706+ the last line will be
docker load -i of_v1706_centos73.tar
but it stops me to the second line:
How can I solve?
There were no errors in OpenFOAM create? May be restarting the machine can help.
When I click on the OF_Env_Create appears the following message: “yo may need to re-run the ….”
I have restarted the pc but the result is the same
Which version of Virtual box you’re using? For windows 10. Most people have had good luck with the latest version of virtual box and openFOAM 1612
I solved by modifying this line:
with the following:
$ cd Program\ Files\ (x86)/
Then I have started first the Docker Quickstart Terminal as an administrator and then the OpenFOAM_Start as an administrator:
For a complete information: I have also upgrade the Virtual box with the 5.2.8 r121009 version.
I am not sure if open foam is running correctly. Please check if virtual box is running. When openFOAM is running successfully, this is how it looks.
Please try the following;
It might be required to do this a few times.
Just to be sure that it’s working, please try to write and run Blockmesh in Butterfly. If openFOAM is not working correctly it will throw an error. Or else, swoosh
I have followed also your suggestion. It works properly:
- Solution exception:Failed to find container id.Do you have the OpenFOAM container running?
You can initiate OpenFOAM container by running start_OF.bat:
C:\Program Files (x86)\ESI\OpenFOAM\1612\Windows\Scripts\start_OF.bat
I remember that I installed the v1706 because I have read from here that butterfly supports the v1706:
I have downloaded the ver 0.0.04 for food4rhino
I too run into this error. What works is to power off VM. Close OpenFOAM and start it again. Also, please run rhino as admin.
I am not sure the version on food4rhino supports the latest version of OpenFOAM. In order to install the latest version of butterfly you’ll need to do the following.
C:\Users\YOUR USER NAME\AppData\Roaming\McNeel\Rhinoceros\5.0\scripts
This should give you the latest version of butterfly.
