(RESOLVED) geogrid Error: Could not open index file

[xyli00]

Hi,

I got the following error when I executed the following command.
I downloaded the input data and put them in "/proj/bolinc/users/y_xiali/wrf/WPS-input/",
which is set in the namelist.wps as

geog_data_path = '/proj/bolinc/users/y_xiali/wrf/WPS-input/'

I don't understand where this comes from
"topo_gmted2010_30s/index"

Any idea about it?

$ ./geogrid.exe
Parsed 28 entries in GEOGRID.TBL
Processing domain 1 of 2
ERROR: Could not open /proj/bolinc/users/y_xiali/wrf/WPS-input/topo_gmted2010_30s/index

Hi,
Can you issue this command:

ls -ls /proj/bolinc/users/y_xiali/wrf/WPS-input >& ls.txt

and then send that ls.txt file to me? Thanks!

Hi,

Thanks a lot.
I have now downloaded the file
geog_high_res_mandatory.tar.gz
and it works.

Best regards,

Xiang-Yu

hello i was running geogrid and i got this error


Parsed 28 entries in GEOGRID.TBL
Processing domain 1 of 2
ERROR: Could not open /home/modle/Build_WRF/WPS_GEOG/geog/albedo_modis/index

This error message clearly indicates that the index file (i.e., /home/modle/Build_WRF/WPS_GEOG/geog/albedo_modis/index) is missing.
Please download this file and run geogrid.exe again.

This could also potentially be a mis-type in your namelist. Check that the path and directory are entered correct.
