Missing Input Parameter

Missing Input Parameter

Missing Input Parameter

(OP)
Hi guys
I would appreciate it very much if you could help.
I am trying to start an analysis using cmd:
abaqus job=test memory="62 gb" input=3D-whol.inp user=xxx.for interactive

the line consists also a creep subroutine.
but I get a weird error even before the pre-processor starts running. (see the photo attached)
The error which I get in the test.dat is:
***ERROR: Missing input parameter
***NOTE: DUE TO AN INPUT ERROR THE ANALYSIS PRE-PROCESSOR HAS BEEN UNABLE TO
INTERPRET SOME DATA. SUBSEQUENT ERRORS MAY BE CAUSED BY THIS OMISSION

***ERROR: Missing input parameter

***ERROR: ANALYSIS WILL STOP DUE TO PREVIOUS ERRORS.

***ERROR: ERROR DURING PART, INSTANCE AND ASSEMBLY PROCESSING
Photo of the error in cmd:

RE: Missing Input Parameter

Looks like something is missing in the .inp or the subroutine.

First thank you very much for your time.
2nd, It looks like it has not checked them yet, while pre.exe has not run yet when I get this error. Usually when there is sth wrong in input file or subroutine it gives info where is the problem.
I got this error once when I had 2 subroutines and used "user=xxx.for" twice instead of putting both in one fortran file.
I don't know...

Hi all
The problem is solved.
The thing that I did not know is that before that pre-processing is started, ABAQUS checks the syntax used in the input file. And I had a problem with the syntax.
Instead of
*include, input=constraint/sets.inp
*include, input=constraint/tie-constraint.inp
I had typed in
*include, include=constraint/sets.inp
*include, include=constraint/tie-constraint.inp.

Love
