[petsc-users] Error occurred when version change

Zhaoni,
petsc-3.4<https://www.mcs.anl.gov/petsc/documentation/changes/34.html> - Public Release, May 13, 2013
i.e., it is a version released 7 years ago. Why you have to use such an old version?
Hong

Subject: [petsc-users] Error occurred when version change


Dear Sir or Madam:

Hello, I am a new PETSc learner. There are some confusions when I using different versions of PETSc. For some reasons, I have to change my codes from the version 3.6.3 to 3.4.5. Newton methods in 3.6.3 version converged successfully with the time step size dt=100. While with the same dt=100 and almost the same codes, Newton methods in version 3.4.5 failed to converge. The debug test indicated that there may be something wrong during the line search process. I have tried to search the changes in different versions but failed. Could you please give me some suggestions? Thank you so much.

Best regards,

Zhaoni Zhu
