Yes, but you should begin again at the configure step and specify the option "--disable-dap-remote-tests" to make sure everything else finishes before running "make install". Depending on which version you are building, you may also want to also specify "disable-doxygen" to avoid trying to build the documentation locally in the final step, in case you don't have doxygen installed. --Russ > address@hidden> wrote: > > > > > Ethan Bodnaruk, > > > > Your Ticket has been received, and a Unidata staff member will review it > > and reply accordingly.
