I have been test a wrf example like this:ARW OnLine Tutorial. in

Nested Domain (2-way, 2 Input Files): Metgrid​

I setted the namelist.wps as

so, can you show me why I faced this problem? maybe namelist.wps and namelist.input start time is inconsistent? but why the OnLineTutorial is okay for inconsistent start time?
 
Did you have met_em.d02.2018-12-01_00:00:00.nc located in the working directory where you run real.exe?

can you upload your namelist.wps and namelist.input in a zip file?
 
Only a single met_em.d02 at the initial time of model run is required. This is because WRF only needs boundary update from large scale forcing at the outermost domain. The single met_em.d02 file is used to provide initial condition for that child domain.
 
If you have all met_em.d02 files in you working directory, REAL will still process the single met_em.d02 at the initiial model time to produce wrfinpout for D02. The result (i.e. wrfinput_d02) will be the same no matter how many met-em.d02 files you have.

Dear ming,
Yes, but if I only put one met_em.d02 as start_date and end_date in d02 is the same, it only shows the Times in wrfinput_d02 only '2018-12-01_00:00:00', and it is not all the dates of '2018-12-01_00:00:00' to '2018-12-05_00:00:00' that I wanted. And I HAVE BEEN LINKED all the met_d0*.nc in real.exe directory.
 
can you upload your namelist.wps and namelist.input in a zip file?
Dear William,
I am glad to have a nice friend like you who is extremely familiar with WRF. I have been update my namelist.wps and namelist.input, I am so sorry that I CANNOT SHOW YOU my original namelist.wps and namelist.input.

it's okay if you can send what you have then @Ming Chen might be able to solve the problem

Dear William,
I have a problem when I used the irrigation scheme in WRF4.2 (sf_surf_irr_scheme). how to mask the area that I don't want to research? and how to add a variable of total irrigation amount of irrigated area? I hope you can give me some adivice or inspiration. Thank you so much.
