No module named um_utils.fixframe

[nx902220]

Hi,

Since last week my suite u-az169 has been failing at ukv_start and I do not think I have made any changes to the suite which would have caused the error.

Do you know if fixframe has changed?

The error message is below:

Hi Lewis,

A python directory appears to have gone walkies on the XCS which I believe is the cause of your problem. I've emailed the Met Office to determine what's going on.

Cheers,

Hi Lewis,

You now need to load the scitools module to gain access to the the python tools.

In ~/roses/u-az169/suite.rc add an extra module load line to the pre-script= in the [[XCD]] section:

module load scitools

Cheers,
Ros.

Hi Ros,

I have done what you suggest but it fails with the same error message.

Cheers,

Hi Lewis,

The mule utilities are no longer in $UMDIR/bin but are set up in the scitools module. So you also need to modify the retrieve_ukv_data script in your suite, by replacing $UMDIR/bin/mule-fixframe with mule-fixframe.

Hi Ros, Willie,

After following comment 4 I no longer get the error.

Thanks,

Lewis
