Pretty weird

You didn;t expect it to actually run did you?

But the failure is damned peculiar

#!/bin/csh -f

...
foreach i (env_case.xml env_run.xml env_conf.xml env_build.xml env_mach_pes.xml)
...

fails with

TACC: Done.
./Tools/ccsm_getenv: line 9: syntax error near unexpected token `('
./Tools/ccsm_getenv: line 9: `foreach i (env_case.xml env_run.xml env_conf.xml
env_build.xml env_mach_pes.xml)'
TACC: Cleaning up after job: 1729536
TACC: Done.

The thing is, it's perfectly valid csh; the error message is the one bash would issue!

  1. This just happened to me - I didn't have the TACC messages but exactly the same "syntax error" messages came up. Very weird.
