This error can be caused simply if the met file you provided (fnl:2015-07-27_00) cannot be read. For instance, if it didn't exist or it does not contain the correct permissions.

Do you want to confirm that the met file is in the same directory that you plan the run the init_atmosphere executable? And that is has the correct permissions for reading?
 
Hi mcurry,
According your reply, I think the problem come from my met file. In my case, I used directly the FNL data with grib2 format so model couldn't read it.
After I used WRF-WPS to link the original data then model can run successfully.
Thank you very much!
