I am not sure what TS you are using, but the estimate of the local truncation error is 91.4, and does not seem
to change when you make the step smaller, so something is off. You can shut off the adaptivity using

 -ts_adapt_type none

  Can you please run with also the options -ts_monitor -ts_adapt_monitor ?

 

  The output is confusing because it prints that the Nonlinear solve has converged but then TSStep has failed due to DIVERGED_STEP_REJECTED which seems contradictory

My code uses TS to solve a set of multi-fluid MHD equations. The jacobian is provided with function F(t, u, u'). Both linear and nonlinear solvers converge but snes repeats itself until gets "TSStep has failed due to diverged_step_rejected." 

 

Is it because I used TSStep rather than TSSolve? I have checked the condition number. The condition number with pc_type asm is about 1 (without precondition it is about 4x10^4). The maximum ratio of off-diagonal jacobian element over diagonal element is about 21.

 

Could you help me to identify what is going wrong?

 

Thank you very much!
