ROMS tidal forcing file

#1 Unread post by s193264 »

Hello

I am working on COAWST model on Japan sea.
I have been working on this project for 3months and I had problem on ROMS. Which below down here. I cant upload my files here because size is too big.

Blowing-up: Saving latest model state into RESTART file
REASON: KEchar = NaN, PEchar = NaN
WRT_RST - wrote re-start

I used TPXO9_atlas_v5 to make my tidal forcing file. I think that, what causing error on my roms is might be my tidal forcing file. So I tried to make tidal forcing file through otps2frc.m by using TPXO7.2 and TPXO9v5 but I failed bot of them.

Can you help me on this problem.

Below down i uploaded my grid file and otps2frc script and my error message as picture. I cant upload any other files because size is too big.

Thank you for your time and consideration and have a nice day.
Sincerely

The error says "Permission denied" which suggests you are trying to write to a non-existent directory or you lack the permissions to create files there.

Matlab has great debugging tools. Try:

>> dbstop in write_roms_otps_ncfile_v2

and when Matlab pauses there, check what directory you are in

>> pwd

and whether you can make files there, e.g.

>> system('touch foo.txt')
>> dir('foo.txt')

Before line 33 when your error was triggered, write_roms_otps_ncfile_v2 writes an information message:

Code: Select all

fprintf ( 1, '%s:  writing %s...\n', mfilename, output_tides_ncfile );
which may be informative. You didn't show that report in your post.
