multiphase flow convergence

Hello,

I am having a convergence issue with my model. It is a multiphase flow. I am using the level-set method. All the subdomain settings and boundary conditions seem to be well defined. I initialize the level-set function as it is recommended in the user guide and use that initial value for the transient solution. I keep getting the same error: " Failed to find consistent initial values. Last time step not converged". Could it be that the inlet pressure is too big? Could it be the solver? the mesh?

Thanks in advance.
