[netCDF #NGK-146672]: PGI compilers are installed but not seen by

Hi Erik,

This is very puzzling to me, too.  There seem to be two problems.

 1.  "C compiler cannot create executables" message.  To figure out why this is
     happening, we would need to see the "config.log" file.  Note this is not
     the same as the configure output, it is much more voluminous.  This
     message
     usually indicates a problem with the development environment that prevents
     compiling and running a simple C program, such as having the runtime
     library
     installed in the wrong place, relative to where the C compiler is looking
     for
     it.  Have you verified you can compile and run a simple C program with the
     compiler you are using?  You may want to put the
     /opt/pgi/linux86/7.1-5/bin/
     directory earlier in your PATH before running the configure script, to
     make
     sure the PGI C compiler is found before gcc (although I don't think that
     should be necessary).

 2.  The configure script is finding gfortran but not pgf77 or pgf90.  The
 configure
     script looks for pgf77 and pgf90 (and pgf95) before gfortran, so if your
     PATH
     is set to contain a directory with those executables, it should find them,
     assuming  you have permission to execute them.

If you are using sh, ksh, bash, or similar as your command shell, could you
please run

  type pgf77
  ls -l `type f77`

just to make sure the compiler is where you think it is and has the correct
execution permissions set.  If this doesn't indicate a problem, please send
the output requested here, so we can diagnose the problem further:

in particular the config.log output.

Thanks!
