[ncl-talk] Question on regridding PATMOS-x data

Dear Xinyue,

The "ESMF_regrid_gen_weights: could not find ESMF_RegridWeightGen
executable."
​ error indicates that for some reason, it is not seeing the
"ESMF_RegridWeightGen" executable in $NCARG_ROOT/bin.

​There could be a few reasons for this; here are two:

1. $NCARG_ROOT/bin is not part of your PATH environment variable

2. $NCARG_ROOT/bin/​ESMF_RegridWeightGen doesn't have execute permissions


You mentioned that the regridding script worked with other data files. When
you ran the script that doesn't work, are you by any chance running it on a
different system or under a different environment somehow?

Before you run the "bad" script, can you type the following to see if it
gives you any insight to the problem:

which ncl
​ncl -V
env | grep NCARG
which ESMF_RegridWeightGen
ls -l $NCARG_ROOT/bin/​ESMF_RegridWeightGen

You can email the input from the above command back to ncl-talk and I'll
have a look.

Thanks,

--Mary
