Hi NEKs,

I just started working on NEK5000 and am having trouble with my first real
simulation (tried both PN/PN and PN/PN-2). I first created a .msh file of
simple cylindrical geometry, with velocity-inlet (v), Outlet (O) and
surrounding walls (W), in ICEM and used "mshconvert" to get a .rea file. In
NEK, the simulation is dying before they actually begin. The error message
is as follows:

I saw an older post regarding a similar problem and that was due to
improper boundary conditions. I suspect I may be doing something similar
but couldn't find anything until now. The .msh file is fine as I was able
to import to "fluent" and run the simulation. Please let me know if you can
help in some way. I am posting input files below (please pardon the length
of this message):
