Barry,

I did as you said and now I receive these errors once I try to run the
program:

[3]PETSC ERROR: MatHYPRE_IJMatrixCreate() line 76 in src/dm/da/utils/mhyp.c
[3]PETSC ERROR: PCSetUp_HYPRE() line 112 in src/ksp/pc/impls/hypre/hypre.c
[3]PETSC ERROR: PCSetUp() line 795 in src/ksp/pc/interface/precon.c
[3]PETSC ERROR: KSPSetUp() line 237 in src/ksp/ksp/interface/itfunc.c
[3]PETSC ERROR: KSPSolve() line 353 in src/ksp/ksp/interface/itfunc.c

Does right preconditiong work with *HYPRE*?
Best,
Ata
