Hi all, I am new to MESA and have been trying to run a 3Msun model (from
the pre-main sequence to the AGB stage) without any success. When I run the
model, I get the output below

DATE: 2020-06-15
TIME: 14:17:48
version_number 12778
read inlist_3M_prems_to_AGB
load saved model start.mod

open failed           2   538976288
failed to open start.mod
load failed in do_read_saved_model
star_read_model ierr           2
do_load1_star ierr           2
before_evolve_loop ierr           2
DATE: 2020-06-15
TIME: 14:17:50

I am confused because I thought the run creates start.mod the moment it
starts running. I also think it's not reading the inlist.start file
because the run is not showing the initial mass of the star at the
beginning of the output. Please correct me if I am wrong.

What am I missing in my settings? I used the 7Msun model in the test_suite
directory as a template.

I am using MESA  r12778, MESA SDK x86_64-linux-20.3.2, and Linux.

I attached a copy of my working directory.

Your help will be much appreciated. Thank you so much in advance.

Kind regards,
Max.
