What happened? What did you expect to happen?

When attempting to run a stretched grid simulation in GCHP v14.4.1, I encountered the following message: "ERROR: Do not use stretched grid when using mass flux inputs. Create a winds run directory for stretched grid simulations." I was not using mass fluxes. It seems the MassFlux_Entry flag is mislabeled when called in the first if statement after the grep "MFXC" ExtData.rc. The variable should be ${MassFlux_Entry} not ${MassFluxEntry}, as shown by my cursor in the attached image. When this typo is corrected, I no longer receive the error.

What are the steps to reproduce the bug?

I encountered this bug when running a stretched grid simulation using full chemistry, standard simulation, MERRA-2. Specifically, it is a c48 grid with stretch factor 2, lat/lon of 40.0/264.0, and default HEMCO/ExtData files.

Please attach any relevant configuration and log files.

Thanks for writing @andrew-scott-white. This was fixed in PR #2363, which went into 14.4.2.
