Hi @febin,

It sounds like you have no bathymetry defined within your croco_grd.nc file. You probably missed a step when building it. The error code -57 can mean that there is an issue with variable dimension too.

  • check dimensions
ncdump -h CROCO_FILES/croco_grd.nc
  • check values
 ncdump -v "h" CROCO_FILES/croco_grd.nc
  • Also mynode=2 may suggest that you are using CROCO in parallel. If you defined PARALLEL_FILES cpp key you have to split your files using partit

./partit np_xi np_eta croco_grd.nc

same for any other file required at start like croco_ini.nc

I hope this helps,
Jeremy
