Hi Seblu,

the variables that are outputted in MESA can be customized, and in the
latest MESA versions the default output was reduced. You can learn more
about how to add/remove columns from your output data here:

http://mesa.sourceforge.net/output.html

In particular, from the error you report, it seems your profile output does
not have the "radius" column. To solve this, you need to edit your
profile_columns.list following the instructions in the above link, and add
"radius" to it.

Cheers
