WRF running error when using pnetcdf

[Sylvia]

Hello,

I'm running WRF 3.6.1 using pnetcdf. And I met some errors when I set "io_form_history = 11". Followed are the error messages in rsl.error.0000.

But I could run wrf.exe successfully using the following options:
io_form_history = 2
io_form_restart = 2
io_form_input = 2
io_form_boundary = 11

Any ideas?
Thanks

Hi,
The rsl file gives those error messages, but it also says that WRF was run successfully. Are you able to get the wrfout* files, and if so, do they look reasonable? If so, then I think you can ignore the error you're seeing.

Otherwise, can you please try your case with the latest version of the code (WRFV4.3.3) to see if you still see the issue? Thanks!

Hi,

Sorry for the late reply. I tried WRF 4.3.3, and it worked! I'll use this version.
Thank you!

Great! I'm glad to hear that, and thank you for the update.
