<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12pt">The function ESMF_RegridWeightGen executable is part of the ESMF library and is not a ncl function: that is the reason why you did not find it in the ncl source code itself. It is the ncl function ESMF_regrid_with_weights
that calls the ESMF_RegridWeightGen (that ncl function is in the large ncl script ESMF_regridding.ncl.) So your ncl script should call ESMF_regrid_with_weights, not ESMF_RegridWeightGen.<u></u><u></u></span></p>

<p>Hi NCL users!<u></u><u></u></p>
<p> <u></u><u></u></p>
<p>I am having a problem running a regrid script. <u></u><u></u></p>
<p>It says “could not find ESMF_RegridWeightGen executable” after generating the source_grid_file and destination_grid_file and before generating the weights.

<p> <u></u><u></u></p>
<p>Here is what I got (by following up this link <a href="https://mailman.ucar.edu/pipermail/ncl-talk/2018-April/011949.html" target="_blank">
