Why am I getting a message about EKILL/EALIVE when I use LSWRITE in ANSYS 11.0? I am not using the birth-death feature. The complete message is below

*** ERROR ***
LSWRITE/LSSOLVE cannot be used with the birth-death option
(EKILL/EALIVE). Use the multiple SOLVE method instead.


Defect 59548 was recently filed reporting that MPCHG generates this message at 11.0, when it did not at 10.0. This defect has been resolved by making the error message more inclusive in ANSYS 12.0:

*** ERROR ***
LSWRITE/LSSOLVE commands cannot be used with birth and death (using the
EKILL and/or EALIVE commands) or changing the material number
attribute of an element (using the MPCHG command). Instead, use the
SOLVE command repeatedly.
