Question

Dear MOOSE team,

I am installing MOOSE in the HPC at Singapore (NSCC). The module list is as follows:

1. craype-x86-rome 5) libfabric/1.11.0.4.125 9) cray-pals/1.1.6 13) openmpi/4.1.5-gcc11
2. perftools-base/22.04.0 6) craype-network-ofi 10) PrgEnv-gnu/8.3.3 14) git/2.39.2
3. craype/2.7.15 7) cray-mpich/8.1.15 11) python/3.12.1-gcc11 15) gcc/12.3.0-nscc
4. cray-dsmml/0.2.2 8) cray-libsci/21.08.1.2 12) cmake/3.23.1 16) cray-python/3.9.7.1

The installation process is smooth. However, When I run the final step

./run_tests -j 6

The following error messages occurs:

misc/check_error.ics_missing_variable: Working Directory: /home/users/nus/guozixu/projects/moose/test/tests/misc/check_error

Could you please help me fix this issue?
