Error when creating new case: Could not find machine match for

[xcj]

I will do that. In the meantime, is there no way I can simply modify the path so that it fetches the config_machines.xml from $HOME/.cime/ instead of /cvmfs/soft.computecanada.ca/easybuild/software/2017/Core/cesm/2.1.1/ without porting the model myself?

That is what should happen. Nether of us understand why it isn't happening. I'm not sure what more I can do with that.

Going back to testing CIME as described here: 8. Testing — CIME master documentation, I tried

$CIMEROOT/scripts/create_test test

and got the error:

File "/cvmfs/soft.computecanada.ca/gentoo/2020/usr/lib/python3.7/sre_parse.py", line 645, in _parse


source.tell() - here + len(this))


re.error: nothing to repeat at position 0

Hello again, I tried running create_test test and I keep getting the unknown machine error. I validated all three config files:

xmllint --noout --schema $CESM_ROOT/cime/config/xml_schemas/config_machines.xsd $HOME/.cime/config_machines.xml



xmllint --noout --schema $CESM_ROOT/cime/config/xml_schemas/config_compilers_v2.xsd $HOME/.cime/config_compilers.xml



xmllint --noout --schema $CESM_ROOT/cime/config/xml_schemas/config_batch.xsd $HOME/.cime/config_batch.xml

and they all checked out, so why can't the model find my machine?

Have you solved this problem? I met something similar. :(

Hello, I got the same error. Have you solved it?

The test name has a required syntax described in the link you posted.

Hi,
I get the same problem, could you please let me know how did you solve it:
Could not find machine match for 'xxx' or 'xxx'

ERROR: Could not initialize machine object from /storage01/users/xxx/CESM2_1_3/cime/config/cesm/machines/config_machines.xml or /users/xxx/.cime/config_machines.xml

 

[jedwards]

What is your machine name and where is it defined in config_machines.xml?

 

[Hemraj]

I set the "--mach charles" while creating the case and the problem is solved.
Thank you.
