Sean Zhang,

Your "perl" utility was built in 64-bit mode (the "-m64" option
was used).

Was the netCDF library built in 64-bit mode?

> I am trying to get NetCDF-perl 1.2.3 to work with NetCDF-3.6.2 and
Perl-5.8.8, and I am having some problems.

> Perl came pre-installed with Fedora Core 8 and I have included the output
from 'perl -V' in my attachments.

> NetCDF-3.6.2 seem to have installed fine. I made sure to generate shared
library files with the './configure --enable-shared' option.

> NetCDF-perl-1.2.3 installation goes fine up until the 'make test' step, where
I get:

> > make test
> make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/local/src/netcdf-perl-1.2.3/src'

investigated the libnetcdf.so.4 file and it is where it should be:
/usr/local/lib
