Description

Hi, I'm trying to run this tutorial in parallel just using `run.sh -parallel but always fail. I tried several configurations of decomposeParDict until I found that it only runs in parallel if I use this setting....

numberOfSubdomains 2;

method          simple;

simpleCoeffs
{
    n               (2 1 1);
    delta           0.001;
}

I'm running the preCICE adapters built with EasyBuild and the easyconfigs that I have made see it here: https://github.com/efirvida/easybuild-easyconfigs/commit/62611dc79313063019bce90ba83f42081c1fd998, So I'm really don't know if I have a mistake in my easyconfigs or is a tutorial error.

I have plans to submit the easyconfigs to the main EasyBuild repo but to do it I have to be sure that they work, and then follow my research on FSI.

Another thing that may be important to say is that I'm using Fedora 34 and I have some problems building the foss-2020a toolchain due to Binutils 2.34 bug (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1916925) and I change the version of the Binutils to 2.36.1 and Bison to 3.7.6 to the whole toolchain, and that's the main reason of my branch here https://github.com/efirvida/easybuild-easyconfigs/tree/fsi, I don't know if this introduces some bugs to the library.

Research direction

Start with run.sh and the decomposeParDict settings in the perpendicular-flap/fluid-openfoam tutorial, then reproduce the failure using the listed OpenFOAM, adapter, preCICE, Fedora, and toolchain versions. Review the preciceDict and precice-config.xml references alongside the provided PETSc/MPI log. Done means identifying whether the failure is in the tutorial configuration or the EasyBuild-built dependencies and documenting a reproducible fix.
