I have a node problem where the nodes do not appear on the list. A link to what I see is at the bottom.

What does it mean when "nodes have inactive dof on which boundary conditions are specified?"

I am trying to create a moment load.

Error in job Job-1: 2 nodes have inactive dof on which boundary conditions are specified. The nodes have been identified in node set ErrNodeBCInactiveDof.

Job Job-1: Analysis Input File Processor aborted due to errors.

Error in job Job-1: Analysis Input File Processor exited with an error.

Job Job-1 aborted due to errors.

Nodes of solid elements don’t have rotational degrees of freedom. So if you use these elements and want to apply moment to them then you have to apply it via kinematic coupling or rigid body constraint.
