Use of the intrinsic
date
to name and search for the output directory names leads to a crash whenever date changes on the hardware clock.This issue was encountered during an HPC run. The code ran overnight, and crashed when it tried to probe the previous
date
directory. To circumvent this issue, a string containing thedatetime
during the start of the run is created. This static string a) names the output directory, b) does not change during the run. When the code probes for the previous results' directory, it will correctly find it regardless of the current date.
