Forrtl: severe (38): error during write, unit -1 file CONOUT$

I created the model in 2020. It was compiled and ran successfully. I was able to compile this model successfully with MATLAB 2024b and 2025a but error occured during runtime.

By the way, the warning is suggesting that you need to use g10.3 instead of g9.3

severe (38) error appears to be a symptom instead of the cause of the error. I am finding several potential causes for it, all completely different -- indicating that something else is going on in the appropriate code leading to internal problems that just happen to trigger an error 38.

For example I find one reference saying that for a particullar program, the problem is simultaneous action to temporary files. I find another reference saying that for a different program, the problem is differences between the system locale and the user locale. Another site suggests maybe you ran out of disk space. The same site suggests adding FLUSH_FILE_BUFFERS=.FALSE (which solved that problem for that particular user.)

There is 637GB free. Where should I add FLUSH_FILE_BUFFERS=.FALSE ?

I am finding hints that FLUSH_FILE_BUFFERS might only apply to Fire Dynamics Simulation (FDS) programs.
