ERROR: inputdata root is not a directory /home/imajhi/cesm/inputdata

I get this error when I setup

./case.setup

Does anyone know how to resolve this?

It's expecting " /home/imajhi/cesm/inputdata" to be a directory where it can put the inputdata needed to run CESM. If this is really where you want your data to go, you just need to turn it into a directory with the UNIX command "mkdir"

mkdir /home/imajhi/cesm/inputdata

Try to create the inputdata folder in that cesm folder mannualy.
I have created the folder. As you see from the last command, the directory exists and I can access it. I don't understand why it can't be read
