Hi Dian,

Sorry to have taken so long to repond to your netCDF question.
> I'm again installing NetCDF.
> This time is on Mac OS X ver. 10.9.2.
> It has been pass on config. test, but it failed on make.
> Here attached config.log and make.out.
> Maybe anyone can helps on it.
> Thank you in advance for the help.

From your config.log, there seems to be a problem using the gfortran you built 
to link
with the needed runtime libraries:
 
  configure:24602: gfortran -o conftest -g -O2  conftestf.o conftest.o  -lcurl 
  configure:24605: $? = 0
  configure:24608: ./conftest
  dyld: Library not loaded: /usr/local/lib/libgfortran.3.dylib
    Referenced from: 
/Users/dhandiani/Downloads/PROGRAMS/NETCDF/netcdf-4.1.3/./conftest
    Reason: image not found
  ./configure: line 24609: 31601 Trace/BPT trap: 5       ./conftest
  configure:24611: $? = 133

Apparently, the gfortran is expecting its runtime library, libgfortran, to be 
installed in /usr/local/lib,
but it's not there.

In addition to that problem, you are using a fairly old version 4.1.3 from June 
2011, which is no 
longer actively supported.  The current version of netCDF C is 4.3.2, and the 
most recent version
of netCDF Fortran is 4.2.  They are now in separate packages, requiring that 
you first build and
install the netCDF C library before building and installing the netCDF-Fortran 
library, using these
instructions:
