 Hi Brad,


       I've checked my .cfg file according to your suggestions. However, it
does not work. Please find attached for all files used in this test. 

Thanks,

Yaru

Yaru-

Your spatial database file looks okay (I could be overlooking some small
error). There are some things you can do to try to track down the problem:

1. Check to make sure your coordinate systems are consistent.

2. Check that the settings for the fault are what you want (i.e., use
--timedependent.interfaces.fault.eq_srcs.rupture.slip_function.help-componen
ts
and help-properties command line arguments).

3. As Tabrez mentioned, the slip.query_type parameter controls whether
nearest point or linear interpolation is used (start with nearest point
setting). If the fault is planar, you should use data-dim=2. If you use
data-dim=3 and linear interpolation, then PyLith needs a volume of points
from which to interpolate onto the fault surface.
