Hi Shard, > Thanks for the reply.

You can either choose 1. to complete the test and installation of version 4.1.3 after a "make clean" and rerunning configure and "make check", using the configure option "--disable-dap-remote-tests" or 2. Use the current supported release, version 4.2.1.1, and following the similar configure and build instructions here: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/netcdf/docs/building.html I recommend approach 2, which also has fixes for other bugs in the 4.1.3 release. One difference is that version 4.2.1.1 has the Fortran support unbundled in a separate distribution, which you would need to build and install after installing the 4.2.1.1 netcdf C library, if you need the netCDF Fortran library. The downloads of the latest (4.2.1.1) C release and the 4.2 Fortran release are available here: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/downloads/netcdf --Russ Russ Rew UCAR Unidata Program address@hidden http://www.unidata.ucar.edu Ticket Details =================== Ticket ID: OLR-692110 Department: Support netCDF Priority: Normal Status: Closed
