2 hours ago @mvertens it looks like you wrote this code in buildlib - can we talk about how we can move it to buildnml or take some other steps so that it will work - it will also fail in cloned cases where you use the --keepexe option.
The following code and perhaps more needs to be in the buildnml and not the buildlib. https://github.com/ESCOMP/WW3_interface/blob/main/cime_config/buildlib#L105 The reason is that for a hybrid or branch run or in a ERR test the buildlib will not be run and therefore file mod_def.ww3 will not be present in the run directory. The buildlib script is only intended to build the executable, file staging should be done in the buildnml script.
