Payu error

Technical
1

all of a sudden payu is stumbling.

I was using a development pre-release version of payu. when this threw me an error this morning I moved back to the default module. “payu sweep” throws below error. I’m not fluent in python or payu but it seems to have a problem with the model name in config.yaml “access-esm1.6” which I have never touched.

Traceback (most recent call last):

Hi @Jhan,

ESM1.6 is currently only compatible with the pre-release version of Payu, as it contains an ESM1.6 specific driver that’s absent from the default module. What was the error that came up when using the pre-release version?

Hi Spencer,

Was something about a file it couldn’t find but it was in the exact place it said it wasn’t. Seems to be working now. Feel free to close this issue

I’ll close this topic now, but do let us know if the error about a missing file comes up again!
