That might indeed be the case. 

Either wrong dimensions or you are providing real*8 fields where the model expects real*4? 
(you'd have to look what accuracy you are prescribing).

One way to find out is to see how many time steps the model runs successfully, i.e. how many records are read successfully before the crash. Perhaps that gives a clue.
