Howdy Rich!

We are definitely getting closer. Try setting the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment
variable to point to the directory where HDF5 is installed on your machine. You
don't have to rebuild anything, just set it and try and rerun your app.

You should report your problem to the WRF team, as it seems they need to update
their config file.

Please let me know if this doesn't work.

Thanks,

Ed
