[MITgcm-support] Getting ECCO_v4_r3 running

[Jean-Michel Campin]

Hi Emma,

One thing that can be useful is to set:
 debugMode=.TRUE.,
in "eedata" (and also set debugLevel=2 in "data")
this will force to flush the standard output unit each time something is written,
so that you will have a better chance to catch where the problem is.

Short question: apart from"data.exch2, did you modify any of the other
parameter files ? If yes, could you attached the one you modified.

Cheers,
Jean-Michel

It's crashing during reading of the namelists - STDOUT finishes just after printing the content of data.seaice. I'm getting errors of the sort:
