I am using WRF version 4.5 for my simulation. After customizing eta_levels, I cannot run ./real.exe properly. The error message and namelist.input are as follows. I have checked many blogs but still haven’t solved the issue. I also referred to the instructions in the best practice guide and changed parent_id to start from 1, but it still doesn’t work. Could anyone help me take a look? Thank you very much!!
Invalid parent id for domain 2

In the eta_levels, it looks like two of the values have a period (.) between them, instead of a comma (,). Make sure they all have commas between and hopefully that will fix the latest error. If you do that and then get the original error again, please attach your namelist.input and namelist.wps files (don't copy/paste them) so we can take a closer look.
Thank you very much. It was indeed a syntax error when customizing `eta_level` — I didn't pay attention to spaces and commas. After adding a comma after a number, a space should also be added before the next number. After that, I solved my problem, which had nothing to do with namelist.wps.
