Hi Bridget, > I am having a problem when running "make check" when building NetCDF-Fortran > 4.4.0. First, just to get it to compile, I had to run this: > > LIBS="-lhdf5 -lhdf5_hl" ./configure --disable-shared --prefix=/opt/local/ Have you installed the netCDF C library first, which is required before building the netCDF Fortran library? Here are instructions for first building the netCDF C library, then the netCDF Fortran library: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/netcdf/docs/getting_and_building_netcdf.html http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/netcdf/docs/building_netcdf_fortran.html If you encounter problems when building the C or Fortran libraries, please send us the "config.log" file that results from running the configure script before running make. --Russ > Then to get "make check" to do anything, I had to use this: > > make check FC=gfortran > > This gets part way through but then stops here: > > /bin/sh ../libtool --tag=FC --mode=link gfortran -g -O2 -version-number > 6:0:1 -L/opt/local/lib -o libnetcdff.la -rpath /opt/local/lib typeSizes.lo > module_netcdf_nc_data.lo module_netcdf_nc_interfaces.lo > module_netcdf_nf_data.lo module_netcdf_nf_interfaces.lo module_netcdf_f03.lo > nf_attio.lo nf_control.lo nf_dim.lo nf_misc.lo nf_genatt.lo nf_geninq.lo > nf_genvar.lo nf_vario.lo nf_var1io.lo nf_varaio.lo nf_varmio.lo nf_varsio.lo > module_netcdf4_nc_interfaces.lo module_netcdf4_nf_interfaces.lo > module_netcdf4_f03.lo nf_lib.lo nf_nc4.lo netcdf4.lo nf_v2compat.lo > module_netcdf_fortv2_c_interfaces.lo nf_fortv2.lo -lnetcdf -lhdf5 -lhdf5_hl > libtool: link: unsupported hardcode properties > libtool: link: See the libtool documentation for more information. > libtool: link: Fatal configuration error. > make[2]: *** [libnetcdff.la] Error 1 > make[1]: *** [check] Error 2 > make: *** [check-recursive] Error 1 > > I have searched for the answer to no avail.
