Not enough info for a p sfc computation

[GoldenEagle]

I'm getting this as an rsl.error.0000 error from real.exe

I've tried with sfcp_to_sfcp = false and equal to true. I've confirmed that num_metgrid_soil_levels = 3 which is the same as my data suggested (real.exe ERROR: not enough info for a p sfc computation).

My data is ERA-20c data and I have pressure level, surface, and land-sea invariant. I've tried running the pressure and surface data together through ungrib.exe and the land-sea invariant separately as suggested Initialising the WRF model with ECMWF ERA-20C reanalysis data and running all three datasets together. However, both times I still get the same error:

From the error, does it appear that I am missing surface data? Specifically 10m u or v wind?

Suggestions would be really welcome.

Hi,
Apologies for the delay in response. Can you attach one of your met_em.d01 files, along with your namelist.input file so I can take a look? If your met_em file is too large to attach, and if you have no other way to link the file to me, take a look at the home page of the forum for instructions on sharing large files. Thanks!
