What version of the code are you using?
CESM 2.1.3
Have you made any changes to files in the source tree?
Not yet
Describe every step you took leading up to the problem:
If this is a port to a new machine: Please attach any files you added or changed for the machine port (e.g., config_compilers.xml, config_machines.xml, and config_batch.xml) and tell us the compiler version you are using on this machine.
Please attach any log files showing error messages or other useful information.
Describe your problem or question:
I encountered difficulties while attempting to download the required input files using check_input_data --download when running the BWHIST component set.
I sought assistance from the UCAR Service Desk, and the technician informed me that the automatic inputdata download failed because FTP is no longer supported. They recommended that I upgrade to a newer version of CESM. However, this presents significant challenges for me, both technically and because my previous work has been based on version 2.1.3.
I would like to inquire whether it might be possible to resolve the issue by modifying the part of the code responsible for inputdata downloading in CESM 2.1.3.
Below, I have included the error log from running the ./check_input_data script:
Client protocol gftp not enabled
Using protocol wget with user anonymous and passwd user@example.edu
Could not connect to repo 'ftp://ftp.cgd.ucar.edu/cesm/inputdata/'
This is most likely either a proxy, or network issue .
Trying to download file: '../inputdata_checksum.dat' to path '/public/home/amduan/panzl/cases/BWTEST1/run/inputdata_checksum.dat.raw' using NoneType protocol.
