Hello,
I am using SWATCUP 2019, and I have everything setup to run sub-daily calibration.  I am able to run simulations using a single processor, but when I run parallel processing, I am getting an error.  I have attached a screenshot of the error.

Are there additional steps I need to take to run parallel processing at sub-daily scale, or is this functionality not capable with the paid 2019 version of SWATCUP?

Thank you,
Jacob

This error has nothing to do with SWATCUP, it has to do with your swat.exe program. From the screenshot I can tell that the version you are using is very old, the current version is swat.exe rev_695 that you can find in the SWAT website and use it in your project. That might solve your issue. Also, if for yhe normal calibration you are not getting issues, then for the parallel you shouldn't, unleast your parameter modification if doing something shady that when SWAT.exe reads it show you that error.

For example: swat.exe is configurated to work with CN2 from 35 to 95, but swatcup modified it to -15, then when swat.exe reads it show you that error.

Hope I could help you,
Oscar

Thank you for the prompt response, Oscar.  The error was because of the executable.  I was using rev_664 for specific reasons, but it seems that 664 is not compatible with parallel processing at sub-daily scale.

I appreciate the help,
Jacob
