WRF real.exe Terminated with Exit Code 9

Hi,

I am currently running a WRF-Chem simulation using ERA5 data, and I've encountered an issue during the execution of real.exe. Despite completing the geogrid.exe, ungrib.exe, and metgrid.exe steps successfully, the real.exe program fails shortly after starting. The error message is:
===================================================================================
= BAD TERMINATION OF ONE OF YOUR APPLICATION PROCESSES
= PID XXXXX RUNNING AT [hostname]
= EXIT CODE: 9
= CLEANING UP REMAINING PROCESSES
===================================================================================
YOUR APPLICATION TERMINATED WITH THE EXIT STRING: Killed (signal 9)

Here are a few details:
  • Domain size: 480 x 480
  • WRF version: 4.6.1
  • Run command: mpirun -np 16 ./real.exe
  • Memory check: sufficient RAM was available
  • Stack limit: increased with ulimit -s unlimited
If you have any suggestions on how to resolve or further debug this issue, I’d really appreciate your guidance.
Thank you in advance for your time and support.

Can you attach in a zip file all the rsl.out and rsl.error files from the /run folder?
