[petsc-users] [Libmesh-users] What does this error mean?

Hi John, 
running in dbg doesn't give me any additional information. 
Thanks,

Does anybody know what the likely cause of this error is?

Looks like it comes from petscdmlibmesh.C line 182.
I'd try running in dbg mode if you haven't yet, and see if that comes up with anything useful.


This only seems like it would happen if you have no active elements on a given processor.  Are you running in parallel on a very small mesh?
Other than that, maybe Dmitry has an idea.
