Question

For a VectorPostProcessor that I am developing, I am getting the following error after the second timestep iteration completion. What do I need to do to continue collecting the information for every timestep?

While declaring a VectorPostprocessor value with the name "flopstep",
a Reporter with the same name has already been declared.

VectorPostprocessor "step_flops/flopstep":
Type:
std::vector
Producer:
FlopsPerStepVPP "step_flops"
Context type:
VectorPostprocessorContext<std::vector>
Consumer(s):
None

The variable vector for the "step" saved file ended up mapped to the same Reporter/CSV signal name across runs. Every step attempted to write to the same-named target. Changed the vector names so they are unique per VPP.
