Hi Noel,
I'm also relatively new to MEEP, and some of the error codes can be quite
cryptic till you've seen them before. To me, the clue in your is list-ref,
so I went carefully through your lists commenting different things out to
see if I could isolate the error. Although this can be lengthy if you
really can't spot something it is a useful way of debugging. In your case
there are two syntax errors:
1. the make is not required when using a predifined material (i.e
perfect-electric-conductor)
2. Be careful with the syntax of the source
Below is a corrected version that at least starts, your frequency however
does seem very small, but this may be what you intend.

I am brand new to MEEP. I have used XFDTD at my old job, but now I am a
grad student and would really like to be able to master MEEP for some
projects.
I have successfully run the first two tutorial examples.
When I run a MEEP script that I have written I get the following:
Using MPI version 1.2, 1 processes
ERROR: In procedure list-ref:
ERROR: Argument 2 out of range: 1
What I really want to know is if there is a way to decode this error message
to help identify exactly where the error is.
I will attach my code below. I know it is not optimal (I haven't started
using all of MEEPs capabilities yet). But I think it should run.
Thanks in advance
Noel
