Problem in inputdata download

[Young-chan]

Hi,

I created one CASE by running "create_newcase --case /home/ycnoh/cesm/CASE/test_case_v3 --compset F2000climo --res f09_f09_mg17 --machine elsa00".
And the CASE was successfully set up and built for our machine.

However, when I tried to download the required input data with the command "./check_input_data --dowload", the following errors are happening.
I repeatedly tried to download these input data, but all failed.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
...
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 '/home/ycnoh/cesm/scratch/test_case_v3/run/inputdata_checksum.dat.raw' using NoneType protocol.
...
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

And I tried to manually connect this data server "ftp.cgd.ucar.edu" but it was also failed as follows.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[ycnoh@elsa00 scripts]$ ftp ftp.cgd.ucar.edu
ftp: connect: Connection timed out
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In my view, our server may be blocked by the UCAR data server. How can I solve it?

Many thanks,

Young-chan

Hi Young-chan,

You can email help@cgd.ucar.edu to ask them to unblock your server.

Thank you for your comment.
I contacted the data manager of the NCAR by sending the email with 'help@cgd.ncar.edu' and he noticed that my server was blocked because
listed in the blacklist.
Now, I can access the data server and download the data.
