Hi Jean,

The file "netcdf.mod" is created by the Fortran-90 compiler when netCDF is 
built from source, just as the primary netCDF library is created by the C 
compiler at the time netCDF is built and installed.

That means you have to use the same Fortran-90 compiler for building netCDF as 
you will use for applications later on, when you make use of the installed 
libraries andd files.

Make sure when you built the netCDF library that you also built the Fortran-90 
interface.  With the new netCDF 3.6.2 version, you can even build multiple 
versions of the Fortran-90 interface for different Fortran-90 compilers.  If 
the Fortran-90 netCDF interface was built successfully, you will see lines like 
this in the output from "make check":

 *** Testing netCDF-3 Fortran 90 API.
 *** SUCCESS!

Also note that different Fortran-90 compilers may have different convnetions 
for ".mod" module files, with some using ".MOD" instead of ".mod".
