Hi there,
It appears that wrf.exe wants unquoted file names in the &fdda namelist. To make wrf.exe run I had to remove the quotes in the entry
gfdda_inname = “wrffdda_d<domain>”
This is at odds with the instructions in Section 5g of the Users Guide and also differs from the treatment of filenames in the &time_control namelist, where quotes around file names are tolerated or are perhaps mandatory. This is a small issue but was a difficult problem to diagnose and cost me a lot of time. Perhaps the treatment of filenames throughout the namelists should be made consistent, or if this is not possible perhaps Section 5g of the User's Guide should be modified.
Regards
Chris
