It's not in your config.log file (in which I found nothing wrong), but instead in the output from "make check" that was in the original question you sent from which I quote: > While compiling libMesh I got these failed tests related to netCFD. > Apparently they prevent me from using Exodus in libMesh. > > *** Testing ncgen3. > *** creating classic file c0.nc <http://c0.nc> from c0.cdl... > ../../../../../contrib/netcdf/v4/ncgen3/run_tests.sh: line 8: > 37560 Segmentation fault: 11 ./ncgen3 -b -o c0.nc > <http://c0.nc> $srcdir/c0.cdl > FAIL: run_tests.sh > *** Testing ncgen3 for netCDF-4. > *** creating netCDF-4 file c0_4.nc <http://c0_4.nc> from c0.cdl... > ../../../../../contrib/netcdf/v4/ncgen3/run_nc4_tests.sh: line > 8: 37581 Segmentation fault: 11 ./ncgen3 -k3 -b -o c0_4.nc > <http://c0_4.nc> $srcdir/c0.cdl > FAIL: run_nc4_tests.sh > ================================================ > 2 of 2 tests failed I've never seen "<http://c0.nc>" or "<http://c0_4.nc>" in the output from "make check" for netCDF, and I don't see anything in the .sh files being run by "make check" or in your "config.log" that could explain thoses strings. Maybe they have nothing to do with why "make check" failed for you, but their unexpected occurrence in the output of those two tests made it seem that there is some relationship with the segmentation faults you are seeing. Do you still get those two failures from running "make check" *after* running the configure script. If so, do you still see the same output as you originally reported, including those unexpected strings? --Russ Russ Rew UCAR Unidata Program address@hidden http://www.unidata.ucar.edu Ticket Details =================== Ticket ID: TEQ-670685 Department: Support netCDF Priority: Normal Status: Closed
