The sequence for building the netCDF is: - define any environment variables that will be needed/used by the configure script - cd src - ./configure - make - make install Since you say that the configure and make steps seem to work OK, I suspect that you did not do the final step which creates the bin, lib, man, and include directories. >According to instructions on the website, >subdirecties of bin, lib, man should be created in ../bin, ../lib ../man >relative to src/ directory.
