This archive contains answers to questions sent to Unidata support through mid-2025. Note that the archive is no longer being updated. We provide the archive for reference; many of the answers presented here remain technically correct, even if somewhat outdated. For the most up-to-date information on the use of NSF Unidata software and data services, please consult the Software Documentation first.
The problem you are encountering exists because
the path to the libraries is not built-in
into your program. If you do the command
ldd ./prate_aphro
You will see a list of the libraries it needs
and that there is no specific item listed for
libnetcdf.so.7.
Assume that the path to libnetcdf.so.7 is,
for example, /usr/local/lib. Then before
you execute the
g++ -o prate_aphro prate_aphro.cc -L/usr/local/lib -lnetcdf_c++ -lnetcdf
command, you need to set the LD_RUN_PATH environment
variable by using these commands.
LD_RUN_PATH="/usr/local/lib:$LD_RUN_PATH"
export LD_RUN_PATH
