Hi Hsie, re: > I install the 64-bit MySQL under /usr/local/mysql. I regenerated the > database. How can I find out the GRIB data is stored or not? I have been working on stratus since first seeing this message. I am trying to get a clean build using the 64-bit installation of MySQL that you made, but I am having problems... With several modifications (to makefile and mccomp.sh) I was able to get McIDAS-X/-XCD to build, but the grib filer, DMBIN (dmbin.k), dumps core almost immediately after starting up. Some GRIB messages have been processed, but the code is not yet stable. I believe that part of the problem comes from there being both a 64-bit and 32-bit installation of MySQL. It may be the case that the MySQL include files that are being used have definitions that are specific to the 32-bit installation. This "feels" like what is going on since the errors being seen are segmentation violations which would make sense if a variable being used was mistyped. We may be forced into: - removing the 32-bit MySQL installation entirely - downloading and installing the MySQL development environment so that all of the MySQL stuff is available under /usr/local/mysql - rebuilding McIDAS to see if the segmentation violation goes away I will write more as I learn what is going on...
