# Step 6: Error 1 In troubleshooting Step 1 we resolved all of the errors associated with `pylithapp.cfg`. In this example, we expect all errors to be associated with inputs files specific to Step 6, such as `step06_twofaults.cfg`. ## Error Message ```{code-block} console --- caption: Error message 1 when running Step 6. linenos: True emphasize-lines: 3-6 --- $ pylith step06_twofaults.cfg >> {default}:: -- pyre.inventory(error) -- timedependent.interfaces.faultcohesivekin.singlerupture.kinsrcstep.simpledb.description <- '' -- Description for spatial database not specified. >> {default}:: -- pyre.inventory(error) -- timedependent.interfaces.faultcohesivekin.singlerupture.kinsrcstep.simpledb.simpleioascii.filename <- '' -- Filename for spatial database not specified. >> step06_twofaults.cfg:68: -- pyre.inventory(error) -- timedependent.interfaces.faultcohesivekin.singlerupture.kinsrcstep.simpledb.filename <- 'fault_slip.spatialdb' -- unrecognized property 'timedependent.interfaces.faultcohesivekin.singlerupture.kinsrcstep.simpledb.filename' usage: pylith [--=] [--.=] [FILE.cfg] ... component 'pylithapp' properties: dump_parameters, help, help-components, help-persistence, help-properties, include-citations, initialize_only, job, launcher, mesh_generator, metadata, nodes, petsc, problem, scheduler, start_python_debugger, typos, weaver facilities: dump_parameters,job,launcher,mesh_generator,metadata,petsc,problem,scheduler,weaver For more information: --help-properties: prints details about user settable properties --help-components: prints details about user settable facilities and components pylithapp: configuration error(s) ``` ## Troubleshooting Strategy We have several configuration errors, so we start with the first one at lines 3-6. Spatial databases require a description, and PyLith cannot find one for `timedependent.interfaces.faultcohesivekin.singlerupture.kinsrcstep.simpledb`. We examine the fault parameters for `step06_twofaults.cfg` and see that `db_auxiliary_field` for the earthquake rupture is missing the description. ## Resolution ```{code-block} cfg --- caption: Correct error in `step06_twofaults.cfg`. --- [pylithapp.problem.interfaces.fault.eq_ruptures.rupture] ... db_auxiliary_field.description = Fault rupture for main fault ```
