I would try a Nek run with ASCII dump (p66<0 in .rea) to check whether formatting of the files is an issue.<br>

<br>
What error are you getting? It should not be the same error you reported earlier:<br>
<br>
VisIt could not read from the file "C:\Users\s pendyala\AppData\Local\Programs\LLNL\VisIt 2.7.2\lowMach_test0.f00001.nek5000".<br>
<br>
since you are presumably opening lowMach_test.nek5000 instead, right?<br>

<div>Also one may need to correct for an endian by inserting the first line "endian big" or "endian little" in case of, e.g., files transfered from other systems<br>

Total 10 file(s) are in the generated file lowMach_test.nek5000 ... Done!<br>

<br>
Actually you need to provide a case name for visnek script since it creates the following template<br>
<br>
<pre> echo 'filetemplate: '$base'%01d.f%05d' > $base.nek5000</pre>
Thus you should try<br>
<br>
visnek lowMach_test<br>
<br>
and not 'visnek lowMach_test0.f00001'<br>
<br>
(ANother alternative, before running nek with scripts tools/scripts/nek*, delete 'rm
<a href="http://SESSION.NAME" target="_blank">SESSION.NAME</a>' from them and just type visnek so it can look up for the case name in the
<a href="http://SESSION.NAME" target="_blank">SESSION.NAME</a> file)<br>

Create a separate file with ' .nek5000 ' has extension and write those lines in it and open it via Visit and It should work.

Did you create a metadata file ?? A meta data file is the one which helps you to open a *.fld or *.f00000 file in visit
