      | ERROR #002100013 has occurred in subroutine Chk_Splane. |
      | Message: |
      | The symmetry boundary condition requires that the boundary patch |
      | mesh faces form a plane or axis. However, face set 26 in the |
      | symmetry boundary patch |
      | |
      | RotSym |
      | |
      | is not in a strict plane, which means that at least one of its |
      | faces is not parallel to the others. To make the solver run |
      | you can do one of the following: |
      | |
      | (1) Make sure that this symmetry boundary patch is in a plane or |
      | axis by checking and regenerating the mesh. |
      | (2) If the symmetry boundary patch is an axis rather than a |
      | plane, change the tolerance of the degeneracy check by |
      | increasing the value of the Solver Expert Parameter |
      | 'degeneracy check tolerance' (the default value is 1.e-4). |
      | (3) Increase the value of the Solver Expert Parameter |
      | 'vector parallel tolerance' (the default value is 1 deg.). |
      | Note that the accuracy of the symmetry condition may decrease |
      | as the tolerance is increased. This is because the tolerance |
      | is the number of degrees that a mesh face normal is allowed |
      | to deviate from the average normal for the entire face set. |

      This is my error message

      What does the symmetry surface look like? Read it, and then check everything that's mentioned.
