Dear Karthik -- In regards to your message: > I am working on DSSAT cropmodels in Unix environment.

It has been a while since I tried using the new version of CROPGRO and CERES under Unix, but might make a couple of suggestions as to what to look at. 1) One very simple problem I've run across is that Unix is case sensitive with file names (ie IBSNAT30.INP is not the same as ibsnat30.inp). So one thing to check is that all file names in .lst files, X files, etc. are all the same as the actual files. 2) I'm a bit confused exactly what part of CROPGRO you are actually trying to run. Are you working with the driver, input model and crop module or are you just trying to run the bare crop model? If you are trying to do the latter you will some how need somehow generate a IBSNAT30.INP file. I would suggest reading over the "System Overview" Chapter in Volume 2 of the DSSAT 3 users guide (pages 109-114) for a brief discussion of these three diffent modules and how they work together. If neither of these ideas help out maybe you could post a more detailed explaination of what you've done up to now, and what you are doing when the error occurs.
