How to continue running from the generated restart files

[wbr2023]

Hi, I am using the CESM 2.1.3 and I use the compset FHIST to run a case.
First I performed the following steps, then I successfully ran and got the restart files for 2010-01-01:

./xmlchange RUN_STARTDATE=2009-01-01
./xmlchange STOP_N=1
./xmlchange STOP_OPTION=nyears
./case.setup

# Edit user_nl_clm file
use_init_interp = .true.

./case.build

After that I want to continue to run for 5 more years using the restart file I got from 2010-01-01:

./xmlchange RUN_STARTDATE=2010-01-01
./xmlchange STOP_N=5
./xmlchange CONTINUE_RUN=TRUE

However, the following error is displayed:

Is there a problem with my steps and what is the reason for showing this error.

Sincerely hope to get your advice.
Best wishes!

You shouldn't need to change RUN_STARTDATE in this situation. Try changing that back to the original value and rerunning.

I changed it back to the original value and reran it, but the schema still recalculates from 2009-01-01.

Before looking into this more, can you try creating a new case where you start over with doing an initial run and then just changing CONTINUE_RUN to TRUE without changing anything else and seeing if that works? (It's possible that some of the changes you've made and then changed back have somehow interfered with this.)
