Has anyone encountered such problem. I am a new WRF user. I just installed and successfully compiled WRFV3 and WPS. Under WPS directory
after the compilation, geogrid.exe, ungrib.exe, and metgrid.exe have been generated. Now, I was following WRF tutorial and implementing a real case study of 01/24/2000.
Ungrib.exe runs without any problems and generates necessary intermediate files.
But, metgrid.exe gives the following error message
WRF_DEBUG: NetCDF error: NetCDF: Index exceeds dimension bound
WRF_DEBUG: NetCDF error in wrf_io.F90, line 1044
ERROR: Couldn't open file ./geo_em.d01.nc for input.
FORTRAN STOP
since geogrid.exe returned with "segmentation fault" even though it generated the following input file - geo_em.d01.nc
anybody has had this problem? and also I would like to mention something else: WRF tutorial states that I should have plotgrid.exe under
WPS/util directory to plot the model grids. but even though I have ncarg (NCAR graphics) installed in my computer, I don't have this utility program which I think it is very useful to see the model grid coverage before attempting to run the model.
Thank you very much in advance.
