"solar parm" error

Hello to all,I'm experiencing an error running CESM and WACCM with the FSDWSF compset (f19_f19 resolution, intel14 compiler).At some date, the model crashes with the message:ERROR: solar_parms_timestep_init: time is out of range of solar parm timesI've never come across this error previously; I tried to perform a restart, but the problem remains. Has anyone got a clue what it could be related to?Thank you.Thibaut.

This message would appear when your run date goes past the end of the solar parameters input file data you are using for this simulation. If you are running on NCAR's Yellowstone cluster, you can update your solar input files to the latest versions, which extend further than the defaults: solar_parms_file = '/glade/p/cesmdata/cseg/inputdata/atm/waccm/solar/wasolar_c150720.nc'  (last date 20150522) spe_data_file = '/glade/p/cesmdata/cseg/inputdata/atm/waccm/solar/spes_1963-2014_c150717.nc'  (last date 20141231) solar_data_file = '/glade/p/cesmdata/cseg/inputdata/atm/cam/solar/spectral_irradiance_Lean_1950-2014_daily_GOME-Mg_Leap_c150623.nc'  (last date 20141231)
