Hi Chris, Your make_check.log shows some warnings we don't see in exactly the test program that causes a failure on your Solaris platform, in running "make check" for the ncdump directory: cc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. -I../fortran -I../libsrc -I../libsrc -g -c -o rewrite-scalar.o rewrite-scalar.c "rewrite-scalar.c", line 20: warning: end-of-loop code not reached "rewrite-scalar.c", line 21: warning: end-of-loop code not reached "rewrite-scalar.c", line 22: warning: end-of-loop code not reached "rewrite-scalar.c", line 23: warning: end-of-loop code not reached I'm guessing maybe your copy of the ncdump/rewrite-scalar.c file got corrupted or overwritten somehow. Could you compare it with the attached version of the file or replace it and try again to see if that makes a difference? Thanks. --Russ Russ Rew UCAR Unidata Program address@hidden http://www.unidata.ucar.edu Ticket Details =================== Ticket ID: CSW-380765 Department: Support netCDF Priority: Normal Status: Closed
