The "wrf.exe" I was running recently was forced to stop halfway through, and the output file shows "exited with code 174". Other errors have not been reported.But the other examples that I ran before are running successfully. I tried to set "ulimit-s unlimited" and changed "time_step" in "namelist.input" file to 120, but it didn't work. When I set "debug_level=1000", the "rsl.error.0000" file appears to be running to "calling Inc/halo_em_couple_b_inline.inc" when it is terminated.How do I solve this problem?

Please reduce time_step to 120 and set w_damping =1. If the domain covers complex terrain area, it is also helpful to set larger values of epssm (for example, epssm= 0.5, 0.5, 0.5).
debug_level can be set to 0 because it doesn't really output helpful information.

Please try the above options and let me know whether this case can run successfully.
 
Thank you for your help.

I tried the above options, but it didn't seem to work, and the same problem still arose-"exited with code 174" :(

I found that the error was reported in "rsl.error.0110", which was "many points exceeded cfl=2 in domain D01", and then led to "Forrtl:severe (174): SIGSEGV, segmentation fault occurred ".

Your nameless.input looks fine.
CFL violation indicates the model integration became unstable. However, for a 30-km domain, time_step =120 is pretty conservative. I am suspicious that either the data or the physics may go wrong in this case. Please rebuild WRF with the debug option (./configure -d), then rerun the failed case. RSL files will show when and where the code failed, which will give you some hints to find possible causes.
