Hi Elie, The device.f File Exists errors are non-critical and can be ignored. The undefined references to cmdln_getLoadVGF and cmdln_getVGF are surprising to see and definitely should not be happening. I'm guessing you simply need a clean build - a 'make distclean' from $NAWIPS followed by a 'make all' rebuild should set things right. -Michael > Michael, > > I've modified LD_LIBRARY_PATH in Makeinc.common to include /usr/lib and > /usr/lib64 and reran m > "make all" again which solved a lot of compilation problems but there are > still very few Error messages : > > gempak@wxlabpc20:~/GEMPAK6.2.0$ grep Error make.out > (test $HDF5_Make_Ignore && echo "*** Error ignored") || \ > (test $HDF5_Make_Ignore && echo "*** Error ignored") || \ > make[3]: [clean] Error 2 (ignored) > make[6]: [install-data-local] Error 1 (ignored) > making in /home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/gempak/source/driver/active/gf > make[5]: Entering directory > `/home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/gempak/source/driver/active/gf' > ln -s /home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/gempak/source/device/main/device.f . > ln: creating symbolic link `./device.f': File exists > make[5]: *** [gf] Error 1 > > make[5]: Entering directory > `/home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/gempak/source/driver/active/png' > ln -s /home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/gempak/source/device/main/device.f . > ln: creating symbolic link `./device.f': File exists > make[5]: *** [png] Error 1 > > > make[4]: *** [all] Error 2 > make[3]: *** [all] Error 2 > > making in /home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/gempak/source/programs/gui/nmap2 > make[5]: Entering directory > `/home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/gempak/source/programs/gui/nmap2' > gcc -DUNDERSCORE -DLinux -I/home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/gempak/include > -I/home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/os/linux64/include -I/usr/X11R6/include -DG_64BIT > -g -I/usr/X11R6/include -I/usr/X11R6/include > -I/home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/extlibs/AODT -c nmap2.c > gfortran -fno-second-underscore -fno-range-check -fd-lines-as-comments > -I/home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/gempak/include > -I/home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/os/linux64/include -g -o nmap2 \ > nmap2.o \ > /home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/os/linux64/lib/nmap2.a > /home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/os/linux64/lib/gemlib.a > /home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/os/linux64/lib/ginitp_alt.o > /home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/os/linux64/lib/gendp_alt.o > /home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/os/linux64/lib/nmaplib.a > /home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/os/linux64/lib/nmap2.a > /home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/os/linux64/lib/Nxmlib.a > /home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/os/linux64/lib/sfmap.a > /home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/os/linux64/lib/snmap.a > /home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/os/linux64/lib/gdplot2.a > /home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/os/linux64/lib/gdmap.a > /home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/os/linux64/lib/gdstream.a > /home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/os/linux64/lib/grphgd.a > /home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/os/linux64/lib/gdcfil.a > /home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/os/linux64/lib/oabsfc.a > /home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/os/linux64/lib/libAODT_v64.a > /home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/os/linux64/lib/libAODT_v72.a > /home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/os/linux64/lib/gemlib.a > /home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/os/linux64/lib/cgemlib.a > /home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/os/linux64/lib/ textlib.a /home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/os/linux64/lib/gplt.a /home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/os/linux64/lib/device.a /home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/os/linux64/lib/xwp.a /home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/os/linux64/lib/xw.a /home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/os/linux64/lib/ps.a /home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/os/linux64/lib/gn.a /home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/os/linux64/lib/gemlib.a /home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/os/linux64/lib/cgemlib.a /home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/os/linux64/lib/libgpc.a /home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/os/linux64/lib/libnetcdf.a /home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/os/linux64/lib/libjasper.a /home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/os/linux64/lib/libpng.a /home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/os/linux64/lib/libmel_bufr.a /home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/os/linux64/lib/libxslt.a /home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/os/linux64/lib/libxml2.a /home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/os/linux64/lib/libz.a /home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/os/linux64/lib/rsl.a /home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/os/linux64/lib/libbz2.a -lpthread /home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/os/linux64/lib/cgemlib.a /home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/os/linux64/lib/gemli b.a \ > -L/usr/X11R6/lib64 -lXm -L/usr/X11R6/lib64 -lXt -lX11 -lm > nmap2.o: In function `main': > /home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/gempak/source/programs/gui/nmap2/nmap2.c:340: > undefined reference to `cmdln_getLoadVGF' > /home/gempak/GEMPAK6.2.0/gempak/source/programs/gui/nmap2/nmap2.c:341: > undefined reference to `cmdln_getVGF' > collect2: ld returned 1 exit status > make[5]: *** [nmap2] Error 1 > > make[5]: *** [nmap2] Error 1 > > > Apparently there is still a problem with compiling gf,png and nmap2. > Any insights on how to go about resolving this problem will be greatly > appreciated? > > Thanks, > Elie > > > -----Original Message----- > From: Saliba, Elie > Sent: Tue 5/24/2011 9:11 AM > To: address@hidden > Subject: RE: [GEMPAK #KWV-635260]: Gempak 6.2.0 Ubuntu 10.4 Desktop Build > problems > > > Hi Michael, > > Thanks for the info. > The package libXtst-dev wasn't installed so I went ahead and installed it on > My Ubuntu box as you suggested, > ran "make distclean" followed by "make all" again.
