ERROR: ESMFMKFILE not found None

[adrienD]

Hi,

I am trying to use CTSM with the supercomputer mistral. Since I have updated CTSM from dev023 to dev074, I can't build the model anymore.

I got the error message: "ERROR: ESMFMKFILE not found None", any ideas why?

I am using the esmf/7.1.0r module.

Thanks!

Thanks Keith, this solves my issue. I will be sure next time to check the Github issues that are closed before posting here.

Cheers

Hi @adrienD and @oleson
I am facing a similar issue with the new beta version, while building the case I am getting the following error:

Calling /home/csp/my_cesm_sandbox_beta/components/cmeps/cime_config/buildnml
ERROR: ESMFMKFILE not found None

Could you please help, how to rectify this issue?

Hi @csp, I have solved it thanks to the Github issue Keith posted.

By the way, I gave up working with the NUOPC compiler, I am using MCT instead (write --driver mct when creating a case, look here Run CTSM with own domain: doesn't work since I have updated). Maybe it will solve your issue.

Hello again @adrienD and @oleson
Many thanks for your input, but even after adding those lines in the config_compilers, I am still getting the errors, now my config_compilers.xml file looks like this:

I am wondering if I wrote those lines correctly or not, could you please comment?

MCT support will soon not be available in new cesm tags. You will need to understand how to build and install esmf to use cesm and ctsm.
