>From: Mark Tucker <address@hidden> >Organization: Lyndon State >Keywords: 199903302005.NAA13519 McIDAS-X Debian Linux Mark, This is a follow-up to my previous follow-up to email exchanges regarding the setting of the FC environment variable that is needed by the netCDF component of McIDAS-X 7.50. >Yes, the mcidas account has the same passwd as the mcidas account on >cirrus. The machine is at ... I logged onto your machine and began troubleshooting. Here is what I found: o CFLAGS and FFLAGS were defined incorrectly in ~mcidas/.tcshrc: setenv CFLAGS -0 ^__ you have a zero, not the letter O setenv FFLAGS "-0 -Nx400 -w" ^__ you have a zero, not the letter O o the version of mcfc.sh that I included in the original distribution does not work on your system. The version of mcfc.sh that I updated on April 2 does work, however The problem you reported was originally caused by the -0 (dash zero) instead of having a -O (dash ooh) in your .tcshrc definitions. If they had been correct, then the configure step would have failed on the mcfc problem that I fixed on April 2. I did not correct the CFLAGS and FFLAGS entries in your ~mcidas/.tcshrc file. I did update mcfc.sh in ~mcidas/mcidas7.5/src. Tom
