Output files missing

I'm only getting output NetCDF file for the coupler. Any suggestions why the other component NetCDF files are missing?

It looks like your case is not running at all. Is the above error message in a log file, or is it returned to stderr when you try to run case.submit?

It's returned to stderr. I've tried other cases that give me more output files and run longer but still have this error at some later point

What command are you running from the command line? And can you list some of the file names that are appearing? It sounds like the error is occurring before the case begins to run, but maybe some of the input data is being copied into the run directory? I'm going to move this to the infrastructure forum because it sounds like a problem with the CIME scripts or the machine configuration.

I'm only getting the coupler output in the run directory after case.submit

That's a restart file, so it looks like the case ran for a bit. In your case directory, can you run

Code:
$ ./xmlquery DOUT_S,DOUT_S_ROOT

If DOUT_S=TRUE, then the short-term archiver is turned on and all history & log files will be moved to the DOUT_S_ROOT directory

(output is moved to the short-term archive at the end of a successful run; if the run aborts, then output will stay in RUNDIR)

My case does say "MODEL EXECUTION HAS FINISHED"
Maybe it's not such a big problem?
This particular case is from the documentation to check functionality:

./create_newcase --case TomCase5 --compset X --res f19_g16

Other cases run longer and provide more outputs.
Thanks for your help
