[Wrf-users] [wrf-users] real.exe fails without error-message

[Hald, Cornelius (IMK)]

Dear WRF-users,

I'm trying to set up a wrf-run for a single domain. The wrf version is 
3.7.1, it compiled without problems and I've had it running in the same 
configuration for several nested runs already.

The namelist-configuration I'm using for this run with a single domain 
is pretty much just the settings for the innermost domain of a nested 
run that is running flawlessly as I type. Geogrid, ungrib and metgrid 
all worked as expected, the "met_em*" files required for real are 
available and look completely normal.

Still, real.exe always aborts at the same step without showing any fatal 
error, so no wrfinput or wrfbdy files are produced. The last few lines 
of "rsl.error.0000" at a high debug level read:

d01 2015-07-15_00:00:00 med_sidata_input: back from init_domain
d01 2015-07-15_00:00:00 module_io.F: in wrf_ioclose
d01 2015-07-15_00:00:00 med_sidata_input: calling init_domain

Using sfcprs2 to compute psfc
d01 2015-07-15_00:00:00 calling inc/HALO_EM_VINTERP_UV_1_inline.inc

I've also attached the relevant parts (time_control, domains and 
bdy_control) of my namelist.input to this mail.

I have a feeling that it's only a minor thing that I'm missing to get it 
to work, but I just can't figure it out.


Thank you for your time and help!

Cornelius
