Hello, I just started to learn to run CMAQ, I use CMAQv5.3.3, where mcip file is run out by run\_mcip.csh, emission file is given by the teacher, initial boundary file is processed by mozart2camx\_v3.2.1, these three steps did not report errors, but there are problems when running cctm.

This is my environment:

Since there are many run scripts in CCTM, I ran one of them randomly.

See the I/O API “Troubleshooting” page, [https://cjcoats.github.io/ioapi/ERRORS.html#inst](https://cjcoats.github.io/ioapi/ERRORS.html#inst): you have an executable compiled from a different machine architecture that you’re running on.

I read the content below the link but still can’t find a solution. Do you mean my I/O API needs to be updated or something else? Also, confusing, I ran cctm with CMAQv5.3.3 or CMAQ5.4 with this problem, but not with CMAQv5.2.1, but with version 5.2.1 I ran other problems, as follows:

It means that someone built your CCTM on some other machine that isn’t fully hardware-compatible with the machine you’re using. You need to re-build the whole thing (starting with the netCDF and I/O API libraries) yourself. On the machine you’re using to run the CCTM.
