I have used GFS as the forcing data.

that's an odd number of cores, try 4 since it's 2x2 or 9 3x3 maybe that might be the issue?
Your namelist.wps looks good. You didn't tell me where you downloaded GFS data. I highly recommend you get GFS from NCAR CISL archive, the download site is NSF NCAR GDEX Dataset d084001. We have well tested GFS data from this website and make sure it works fine with WPS.
Let's first make sure the GFS data is correct.
Since your grid number ( i150 x 130) is not large, I guess a single processor should be fine to run metgrid.exe. Please try:
mpirun -np 1 ./metgrid.exe
Let me know whether it works.
By the way, mpirun should be used if you compiled WPS in parallel mode. If you compiled it in serial mode, the command should be:
./metgrid.exe
