Mismatched XML tag error when creating a new case

[leanne_wake@northumbria_ac_uk]

Hi allUgraded to CESM2.0 after having previously sucessfully ran CESM1,2,2 on our local machine.I've hit the first hurdle, however. It looks like a mismatched tag in an .xml (I think), but I'm having trouble interpreting the traceback and finding where to look (see below).Can anyone help ? I'm fully aware that your organisation may be affected by the government shutdown so I totally appreciate there may be a delay to this reply.ThanksLeanne

If you are just updating now you should get the 2.1 tag not 2.0.   It looks like there is an issue in config_machines.xml but you didn't tell us what machine you are trying to build on.Also note that the B1850 compset at f19_g17 is not yet supported.  We plan to have a support for this configuraton in 2.1.1 sometime this quarter.

Hi - thanks for hte quick reply.The version I updated to is 2.0, sorry not 2.1My machine is not one of the supported machines that are found in all the .xml files.I shall take a look through my config_machines.xml file and see if it can solve it, if not I'll reply to this post again.CheersLeanne

If your machine is not listed you will need to do a port https://esmci.github.io/cime/users_guide/index.html#case-control-system-part-2-configuration-porting-testing-and-use-cases

I met the same problem, did it solve?
