Hello, Thank you for reporting the issue. I do not test netCDF regularly with pnetcdf, so I was unaware that there may be an issue. Please allow me some time to set up a test environment and I will follow up with you about what I observer and, if necessary, how we might address this issue. May I ask what version of pnetcdf you are using? -Ward > Hi all > > I have successfully installed parallel NetCDF-4.3.2 as: > > export CFLAGS="-fPIC -I/usr/local/hdf5-1.8.12/include -I/usr/local/include" > export LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/hdf5-1.8.12/lib -L/usr/local/lib" > export LIBS="-lpnetcdf -lhdf5_hl -lhdf5 -lz -lm -lcurl" > > CC=mpicc ./configure --prefix="/usr/local/netcdf-4.3.2" --disable-shared > --enable-pnetcdf > > I have previously installed parallel-netcdf following the standard procedure. > Building and compiling were apparently fine.
