Haiyun,

Super.  This enabled me to quickly find that your problem was that
cc can not connect to the Sun license server.  Here is the test
that I ran to prove this:

cd mcidas7.5/src
cc -c zm.c

License Error : Cannot connect to the license server (dante)..
        for product(SPARCompiler C).
        (License server may not have been started)
Cannot connect to license server (-15,12:146) Connection refused
cc: acomp failed for zm.c

You need to get your system administrator to fix the license server
problem and then try the McIDAS build from scratch once again.

I forgot to also point out that your definition of CC was incorrect in
your .cshrc file.
You had:

setenv CC /opt/SUNWspro/bin/c89

On dante, there is no /opt/SUNWspro directory.  The C compiler is actually
found in /work3/SUNWspro/bin.

I changed your entry to:

setenv CC /opt/SUNWspro/bin/cc

I changed c89 to cc since I have on occasion run into a problem using
c89 in stead of cc.
