Hello Swift Group, coming back to MODIS:

I followed Jonathan's advice to set retries to 0 and looked at the wrapper
section in the files in the *.d directory as per David's advice and now get
an error right away, as follows:
hstoller at ubuntu:~/modis$ ./demo.local urban 4
runid=modis-2012.0509.1527-urban-4-10
Swift 0.93 swift-r5483 cog-r3339

RunID: 20120509-1527-bsxjpz4g
 (input): found 0 files
Progress:  time: Wed, 09 May 2012 15:27:53 -0700

Execution failed:

status:1  Failed:4  Finished successfully:4
File not found:
/home/hstoller/swiftwork/modis-20120509-1527-bsxjpz4g/shared/landuse/h15v05.color.png
Progress:  time: Wed, 09 May 2012 15:28:00 -0700  Initializing:1  Failed:4
Finished successfully:5

I think my question is, where should that shared/landuse directory be
getting the missing file?

Thank you for your help!

Sincerely,
Heather
