Hi Munshi, 1. I am wondering if you defined your mcip out directory named “$mcp\_dir” in config\_cmaq.csh, .cshrc, or your script. 2. Make sure InGeoDir should be your WPS output path with geo\_em.d0?.nc files. 3. I see following settings in your script and wonder if it works properly add following check immediately after “set MCIP\_END…” echo $MCIP\_START $MCIP\_END make sure you have the valid start date and end one. You error message says you do not. **Otherwise,** shift one hour late for start and end as following setting and see if it works. set MCIP\_START = ${1}-19:00:00.0000 # [UTC] set MCIP\_END = ${2}-19:00:00.0000 # [UTC] I hope it is helpful. ---

Hy, 1. I didn’t see anything like $mcp\_dir in config\_cmaq.csh 2. I’ve checked and my geo\_em.d01.nc file is in InGeoDir 3. I’ve checked and also changed the date to …:19:00:00 I’m still having the issues and it’s giving me the same error. Any other suggestions? ---

Hi, Please double check, you do have # set OutDir = $mcp\_dir #$DataPath/mcip/$GridName in your run script file run\_mcip\_AQF5X\_cron.csh Do you have setenv mcp\_dir somewhere? otherwise, output goes nowhere. According to your error message Processing meteorology for time = 2020-06-01-19:00:00.0000 The time stamp in your meteorology data seems not matching your start date set MCIP\_START = ${1}-18:00:00.0000 # [UTC] So I doubt you have the right results from echo $MCIP\_START $MCIP\_END It is better to attach your log file. ---

> [@FengLiu](#): > > OutDir Hy, I set setenv mcp\_dir in run\_mcip4AQF5X\_cron.sh script (please see the attached [run\_mcip4AQF5X\_cron.csh file). The script worked for 18th hours. However, at 19th hours it failed. Also see the attached[log.csh](https://forum.cmascenter.org/uploads/short-url/9e7Fvkc7p3jJSlwg1cj2Dp9Bcs5.csh) (39.3 KB) logout file: Regards, Rasel ---

Hi, I checked the code date\_pack\_mod.f90 (mcipv5.0), your error GETH\_IDTS: Month of ODATE = 0 resulted from moold = 0 (it should be 1-12), please double check time stamp in your meteorology data based on the following lines in date\_pack\_mod.f90 ``` 151 ! Check that the month of ODATE makes sense. 152 153 IF ((moold.GT.12).or.(moold.LT.1)) THEN 154 PRINT*, 'GETH_IDTS: Month of ODATE = ', moold 155 opass = .false. 156 END IF 237 IF (.not. opass) THEN 238 PRINT*, 'Screwy ODATE: ', odate 239 STOP 'odate_1' 240 END IF ``` I hope it helps. ---

Hy, In my wrfout file I’ve checked (ncdump -v Times wrfout\*) time stamp. It seems to me they are okay (please see the attached screen shot). Is there any other things I can check in my wrfout file? Thanks Rasel ![Screen Shot 2021-01-27 at 6.51.42 PM](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex027/uploads/cmas/original/2X/7/78956082dfe750f0e77415614222145646b8a1b0.png) ---

Hi, @munshimdrasel , Go to source code directory and update the routine src/chkwrfhdr.f90 by commenting out line 447 as below, then try again after recompile MCIP. Please ‘make clean’ first before you re-compile it. ``` 445 WRITE (*,f9000) TRIM(pname), 'SIMULATION_START_DATE' 446 WRITE (*,f9300) TRIM(fl1), met_startdate(1:19), TRIM(fl), date_init !!447 CALL graceful_stop (pname) ``` I hope it will be helpful. ---
