coupler driver crashes if submodels are disabled #55

Open marshallward opened 10 years ago

marshallward commented 10 years ago

If I am using one of the coupler-based drivers (e.g.MOM_SIS) and my input.nml only has the ocean enabled, e.g.:

&coupler_nml
    ! ...
    do_atmos = .false.
    do_land = .false.
    do_ice = .false.
    do_ocean = .true.
    ! ...
/

then the model will crash with a segfault, and no indication of the problem. I think some sort of error message is necessary in this case.

Marshall,

I recommend sending these sorts of issue reports also to the mom user list. Folks such as Russ Fiedler need to see them.

Thanks, Steve

Steve, just letting you know that this particular issue was passed on to Niki back when 5.1 was released. So he may have already fixed it internally.
