concplot.ps not found

Hi.

I have had this problem for a while, but I usually just solve it by re-installing hysplit.
But this time I can't seems to be able to run a concentration plot because the concplot.ps is not found.
Run the model is fine, but when I want to display the plot is when I get the error message.
The MESSAGE file tells me: metini - FLUXES not found in data (kg,kt) 1 1
Setting KBLS=2 to use the wind/temp profiles!
I tried setting kbls=2 but no change

Any clue to what is wrong?

Best regards,
kristine

The message you are getting is because the model cannot find surface flux data to calculate the dispersion parameters in your meteorological file so it will use the temperature and wind vertical profiles for that end. That should not cause any problem for you to run the model.
Are you producing any output (cdump) ? Is your run reaching 100% of completion?
If so, please reset your GUI and try again.
Also, you can open your command prompt and go to the "working" directory and type:
..\exec\concplot -icdump
check if you get a concplot.ps file.

Yes cdump is created but its does not make sense. And yes the run is reaching 100%.
I reset the GUI and tried again with no luck.

Then I did: ./../exec/concplot -icdump in my working directory and got:

[ktofte@yslogin2 working]$ ./../exec/concplot -icdump
Started Concentration Drawing
Last Changed Rev: 770
Last Changed Date: 2015-08-27 15:26:14 -0600 (Thu, 27 Aug 2015)

All concentrations ZERO - no maps
900

Any other suggestions? :/

Can you please send me your SETUP.CFG and MESSAGE files?

I can't find SETUP.CFG in my working directory but I have MESSAGE, CONC.CFG and the CONTROL file attached.

I appreciate your time helping me!

Your problem is in the control file:

You have to either change your ending time for the concentration calculation to 10 05 03 06 00 or change your averaging time to 00 24 00.
