Hi Hsie, re: 32-bit MySQL on stratus > The include files and libs should be in /usr/sfw. Very good. I have built McIDAS-X/-XCD in 32-bit mode on stratus and am ready to test the GRIB2 processing. 'mcidas' needs to do the following: - delete and remake the MySQL database: <as 'mcidas'> cd ~mcidas/solaris/workdata decinfo.k SET DMBIN INACTIVE <- I already did this! gribadmin removedb <- I don't have the password to do this -- edit ~mcidas/solaris/bin/gribadmin and change to use of the 32-bit MySQL (the appropriate lines are in the file already; all that needs to be done is to comment out the current 'mysql_path' and 'PATH' lines and uncomment the ones appropriate ones for 32-bit MySQL use) gribadmin makedb decinfo.k SET DMBIN ACTIVE If all goes well, all GRIB messages from the HRS and NGRID datastreams should be processed. I will continue to work on why the processing of GRIB2 is not working on Solaris 10 x86_64 when McIDAS is built in 64-bit mode.
