Error running Latte example

[nrecord]

I'm new to ROMS. I can compile and run the upwelling example, no problem. I'm trying to compile and run the Latte example, as described on the tutorial page (https://www.myroms.org/wiki/index.php/CSTMS_UNSW2008).

When I run the model, I get an error. Maybe someone has some advice? Here are the last few lines of output before abort:

Yes, this is because the ocean_lattec.in needs to be updated. Several changes have been made to ROMS standard input since the Sydney workshop.

I also met the same problem, I want if there is a update latte_c.in and latte_c.h profile?

[wilkin]

Yes indeed, that was 5 years ago and ROMS has moved on quite a bit since the Sydney User Workshop.

I see that several users found this a particularly/potentially useful example for its realism (rivers, meteorology forcing, open boundaries, tides ...) so we should update the example input netcdf files.

It's on my to-do list.

Thank you wilkin for your reply!
I am waiting for your update of the Latte input profiles, if you have arleady made it, just let me know!
Thank you!

Hello,
I'm a new user too and I'd like too to run the latte_c realistic testcase.
I ran successfully upwelling test case but latte it seems to have also compiling problems due to some issue on old *.h files and other stuff I don't know.

Here is the print of the last lines of compilation error (compiling with build.sh)

There are several idealized and realistic cases to download and play with it. They are in the test repository! This information is in WikiROMS. This will keep you busy for very long time. There is a lot to learn. We will add the LATTE test case to that repository when we get some free time.

Ok Thank you so much.
I think Latte is attractive for some of us because it is a realistic 3-D case, close to implementation we could/would do in our own areas.
In any case I will follow your suggestion to play with other test cases.

Cheers,
