Getting error while creating mesh

Post by adarshch »

I am getting this error while creating the mesh

0.0: We are going to start ...
0.0: Start Gmsh ...
0.1: Gmsh had warnings ...
0.1: Error: Gmsh requires OpenCASCADE to import shape
0.1: Gmsh done!

I am facing this problem since the software is updated. My operating system is Ubuntu Linux.
I have installed OpenCascade. Uninstalled and then installed freecad. But it is still not working.

Please help me on this

Releases all the way back to version 0.13 are available on the github page for FreeCAD

https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD

Depending on your computer skills these releases may or may not be useful for you.

Then you should try the AppImage.
