Problem with running a sample case using TOUGH3/ECO2N

I have started to use TOUGH3 recently for my research. I am trying to model the temperature perturbation during CO2 injection into saline aquifers using TOUGH3/ECO2N. I have started with running the sample cases however, I find the following error message while running some cases. Could anyone help me know the source of the error?

    I am not sure if it will solve your problem, but as far as I know, the command line to run a TOUGH3 simulation should be something like:

    tough3-eco2n INFILE OUTPUT.out

      Yingqi Zhang I was trying to run "rcc3" sample problem.  I am running the case on PC (windows).

      Keurfon Luu I have tried to use the command line as you wrote "tough3-eco2n INFILE OUTPUT.out", however, I find the following error message. I am not sure if I have to put INFILE between these symbols "<INFILE>".

      Refaat G Hashish The input file for rcc3 sample problem is using AZTEC then switching to PETSc solvers which are not available on Windows platform. You have to edit your input file, in particular the block SOLVR, to use any other solver that does not run in parallel. Open INFILE with your notepad and modify the first parameter on line 18 (below SOLVR keyword) to anything below 7 (e.g. 3):

      SOLVR----1----*----2----*----3----*----4----*----5----*----6----*----7----*----8
      3  Z1   O0    8.0e-1    1.0e-7

    Hello,

    There are about nine sample problems for eco2n. Can you please tell me which one you used? Were you running on pc?

    THank you

    Hello,

    I agree with Keurfon, and I apologize that I did not look at your screen carefully previously. It actually prints out on the screen that AZTEC solver can only be used when compared in MPI mode, which you cannot do on windows platform.

    Comment out solver block will solve the problem.

     The other problem you asked " rtab" has the same problem. Noticed "rtab" is setup to check primary and secondary parameters for certain initial conditions. It is not a real problem, as the elements are not connected.
