Dear Issam AD Issam,

  1) For the third time: PLEASE sign your posts to this forum with your 
affiliation,

  2) Like I wrote already, you do not close the first two namelists. I 
already managed to run your input after the minor modifications that I 
suggested earlier.

   I suggest that you start with the examples and tests that are available 
at the web site to familiarise with the code, and discuss the issues with 
your supervisor.

     Good Luck,

        apsi
