Hello Evelina,

The thing that leaps out at me from the pastebin link is the following:

    H5F.c line 604 in H5Fopen(): unable to open file

This suggests to me that there is an error writing the file, somehow.  Can you 
do an 'ls -al c0.nc' so that we can see the permissions and size of the file?

You do not need the '--enable-parallel' flag when running configure; netcdf 
will query libhdf5, after detecting it, to see if libhdf5 supports parallel 
operations.

Finally, can you provide the 'config.log' file generated when you run configure 
for netcdf?  This may provide some additional insight into the issue.

Thanks,

-Ward
