Hi,

This error message usually indicates that the CFL condition has been 
violated.  If you are getting this message you should first try lowering 
your time step (deltaT).  I don't know about the exact configuration you 
are running, but I usually find I need deltaT=150, sometimes even as low 
as deltaT=50 for Mars.

You can check if CFL is being violated in the "MONITOR dynamic field 
statistics" by looking in the output text (you have it called 
presion.txt in your example) for the parameters:
advcfl_uvel_max
advcfl_vvel_max
advcfl_wvel_max

These should be below about 0.5 for numerical stability.

Please let me know if you require more assistance.

     Angela
