Vortex-following: The inner domain does not move

Hi everyone,
I'm currently trying to run an em_real WRF simulation with the vortex following option on. I checked the nested domain wrfout file and it seems to be well placed because the cyclone crosses through it, but unfortunately the domain doesn't move and I have no ATCF data in my rsl.out file.
My original simulation was 7 days long but I also tried with shorter periods with similar results. Namelists and rsl files for a two-day long simulation are attached below.

Thanks to anyone who answers,
Luca

Hi Luca,
Just to make sure - you did compile the code for the vortex-following option, correct? Can you attach your configure.wrf file so I can check that everything looks okay? Thanks!
 
Thank you for the reply.
Yes, I compiled the code with the vortex-following option.
Could the problem be that I didn't clear the environment before configuring?

Thank you

If you didn't do a "clean -a" before reconfiguring, that could, indeed, cause some issues. I'm not sure if it's causing the issue you're seeing, but it's worth a try. Any time you need to reconfigure, you should also clean the code first. I'm not confident that will fix your problem, but let me know, either way. If not, I'll start to investigate further.
