    <summary type="html">Hello,&lt;br /&gt;The diagnosis file shows the error below when I use the time- and space-varying wind on an equidistant grid format,&lt;br /&gt;even with the same computational grid that worked well with different external forcing input such as spider-web.&lt;br /&gt; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------&lt;br /&gt;** WARNING: ERROR: Looking for ncols (arc-info), but getting: FileVersion = 1.03&lt;br /&gt;** ERROR  : flow_initexternalforcings: Error while initializing quantity: windx Check preceding log lines for details.&lt;br /&gt;----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------&lt;br /&gt;(but log file shows nothing)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have you experienced such errors?&lt;br /&gt;I would appreciate it if you can share any ideas or check if the attached files have anything wrong.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;=================================================================================================&lt;br /&gt;I&amp;#39;ve found how to deal with this.&lt;br /&gt;This can be solved by inserting three comments lines before the input information of each file (.amu, .amv, and .amp),&lt;br /&gt;because it is sensitive to the number of lines of the header to be initialized.&lt;br /&gt;For example: &lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;### Start of Header&lt;br /&gt;### This file is created by ...&lt;br /&gt;### Additional comments&lt;br /&gt;FileVersion = 1.03&lt;br /&gt;...&lt;br /&gt;unit1 = m s-1&lt;br /&gt;### End of Header&lt;br /&gt;TIME = 0 minutes since 0000-00-00 00:00:00 +00:00&lt;br /&gt;...&lt;/em&gt;</summary>
