Error while executing Fjord Tidal Case

[aakashsane]

Hi All,

I am new to ROMS and I am trying to get my hands "wet" with it.

I am trying to run the Fjord Tidal Case given here:
https://www.myroms.org/wiki/FJORD_TIDAL_CASE

Although I have the oceanS (or oceanG) file, after issuing the ./oceanG < ocean_fjord.in command,

I get the following error:
_______________________________________________________________

Any help will be appreciated.

If you run oceanG instead of oceanS, you should be getting line numbers in your traceback report. Can you show us that instead of the hex output?

Hi Kate,

I deleted the Build directory and oceanG file and built it from fresh.
Now after running ./oceanG < ocean_fjord.in I did not get a segmentation fault but I got a new error:

The dimension of xi_rho in the grid file is 92 but I don't know what 152 stands for.
Any suggestions? Thanks for your time.

The 152 comes from Lm in the ocean.in file, which you have apparently set to 150. The dimension should be Lm+2. Here's your Lm, Mm:

Resolution, Grid 01: 0150x0090x020, Parallel Threads: 1, Tiling: 001x004

Hi Kate,

I changed the Lm and Mm as per my grid file and the issue was resolved.
Now the Fjord tidal case is running without any errors.

I guess the lesson I learned is that when the grid is analytical grid, Lm and Mm can be changed in the input file but when external grid file is being called then Lm and Mm have to be appropriate as per the grid.

Thanks for helping out.

Best,
Aakash
