I got this error message when using metis 4.0 (Windows version)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*** I detected an error in your input file ***

In the first line of the file, you specified that the graph contained
9383 edges. However, I only found 9383 edges in the file.
Please specify the correct number of edges in the first line of the file.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Any idea what is wrong?

I had a similar problem,
Apparently the problem arouses when trying to give kmetis a graph which some of its nodes has no edges. In this case, there is a conflict between the number of nodes specified at the first line of the graph file, and the number of nodes actually counted by kmetis.
In order to solve the problem try entering empty line in the graph file as the zero connectivity nodes.

Hi, All of my nodes have edges and I still have the same problem. Maybe there is a problem with the windows version. I will try another version.

Same error when using on AIX. The graph file I am using is:

9 9
4 5
5 6
4 5 6 7 8 9
1 3
1 2
2 3
3
3
3

And the error message is:

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*** I detected an error in your input file ***

In the first line of the file, you specified that the graph contained
9 edges. However, I only found 9 edges in the file.
Please specify the correct number of edges in the first line of the file.

Looks like the problem in the above post is that the error message does not clearly identify the problem. The graph file is either missing (5,3) or has (5,3) extraneously. Therefore, the program has found 9.5 edges.
