Hi Alexander,

at this stage, there is nothing we can do to help you without a copy of your 
.stl file ...

Regards,

Dave

Hi

First many thanks for this great tool!
But now I am stuck with the following problem. I want to create a 3D volume 
mesh from an imported stl surface. The surface doesn't self-intersect but the 
meshing was not successful. I tried different meshing algorithms but none did 
succeed. Now my question is what the failure in my stl surface could be that 
ceases gmsh from successful meshing.

I got the following error messages:

I am running Gmsh Version 2.4.2 on 64 bit Linux Ubuntu.

Any help is appreciated.

Many thanks!
