Dear nektar users,


I am exploring my 3D dns data computed by nek5000, and hoping it would be used for stability analysis.  I found nektar++ could read nek5000 binary field directly in the technical document

http://doc.nektar.info/latest/class_nektar_1_1_field_utils_1_1_input_nek5000.html


I run FieldConvert -l, and it gives


Available classes: 
  Input: bse:
    Reads stability base-flow file.
  Input: chk:
    Reads checkpoint file.
  Input: dat:
    Reads Tecplot dat file for FE block triangular format.
  Input: fld:
    Reads Fld file.
  Input: fld5000:
    Reads Nek5000 field file.

I firstly generate a cubic.xml file and then build a new nek5000 dns setup with  exactly same coordinates.  Then  run it in nek5000 to obtain a sequence cubic0.f00001,.... cubic0.f00025 fields. 

Next, I defined the binary nek5000 data ( e.g. cubic0.f00025) as the restart file. When I run nektar, it gave an error, as below

Did I miss something? or can someone help me?    thanks!
