 Hi

 I got the error
 [0]PETSC ERROR: --------------------- Error Message 
 ------------------------------------
 [0]PETSC ERROR: Invalid argument!
 [0]PETSC ERROR: Not a vector next in file!

 from the line "ierr = VecLoad(u,viewer); CHKERRQ(ierr);"

 Here is my code
 Vec u;
 ierr = 
 DMDACreate3d(PETSC_COMM_WORLD,DMDA_BOUNDARY_NONE,DMDA_BOUNDARY_NONE,
 		      DMDA_BOUNDARY_NONE,DMDA_STENCIL_STAR,-4,-4,-4,
 		      PETSC_DECIDE,PETSC_DECIDE,PETSC_DECIDE,1,1,
 		      PETSC_NULL,PETSC_NULL,PETSC_NULL,&da); CHKERRQ(ierr);
 ierr = DMGetGlobalVector(da,&u); CHKERRQ(ierr);
 ierr = 
 PetscViewerBinaryOpen(PETSC_COMM_WORLD,"permX.bin",FILE_MODE_READ,&viewer);CHKERRQ(ierr);
 ierr = VecLoad(u,viewer); CHKERRQ(ierr);

 I just followed the example 
 "http://www.mcs.anl.gov/petsc/snapshots/petsc-dev/src/dm/examples/tutorials/ex9.c.html"
 Do you know what happened?
