Warning and issue running WRF after using run-time IO

Hi everyone,
I'm trying to create an auxiliary output to write out selected variables more frequently than the others.

I run the model from the ideal case .../test/em_convrad. I have added a new text file called my_hourly_output_d01.txt which contains only:
+:h:7:RAINC,RAINNC,TSK,HFX,LH,LWUPT,PBLH,PSFC,Q2,T2,U10,V10

In the namelist, I have added:
iofields_filename = “my_hourly_output_d01.txt”,
ignore_iofields_warning = .true.,
auxhist7_outname = “/scratch/.../wrf_hourly_out_d<domain>_<date>”
auxhist7_interval = 60,
frames_per_auxhist7 = 24,
io_form_auxhist7 = 2

I receive a warning when running ideal.exe :
W A R N I N G : Problem opening “my_hourly_output_d01.txt”

And when running WRF, the run stops after a couple of minutes of run. It has written out the first output file. It just says:
forrtl: error (78): process killed (SIGTERM)

Do you have any clue on how to solve this problem ?

Note that I also added -DNCEP_DEBUG_MULTIDIR -DNCEP_DEBUG_GLOBALSTDOUT in CFLAGS in configure.wrf for the first time. Could it be related to this ?

Thank you.
 
I can confirm that your namelist.input is correct.

If you compile WRF in the standard mode (i.e., not include -DNCEP_DEBUG_MULTIDIR -DNCEP_DEBUG_GLOBALSTDOUT in CFLAGS ), can you run this case successfully?

I am not sure whether the compile option yuou added caused the issue, but I guess it is worth trying not to include them.
