[Gmsh] Cannot build 3D FEM mesh for the sphere

[Alexander Kalinin]

Hi, Mikhail!

Yes, I can read Russian and I have found the problem! Thank you, Mikhail!
The problem was that the example file from wiki did not have volume
definition part. I have added following lines:

Surface Loop(1) = { 5, 8, 11, 14, 17, 20, 23, 26 };
Volume(1) = { 1 };

and 3D FEM mesh was successfully created.

Sincerely,
Alexander
