Hello,

From the config.log file you provided, I see the following error:

````
configure:21441: gcc -o conftest -fPIC 
-I/home/mostafa/RegCM_LIBS/netcdf/include 
-I/home/mostafa/RegCM_LIBS/hdf5/include -I/home/mostafa/RegCM_LIBS/zlib/include 
-L/home/mostafa/RegCM_LIBS/netcdf/lib -L/home/mostafa/RegCM_LIBS/hdf5/lib 
-L/home/mostafa/RegCM_LIBS/zlib/lib conftest.c -lnetcdf  >&5
configure:21441: $? = 0
configure:21441: ./conftest
./conftest: error while loading shared libraries: libnetcdf.so.13: cannot open 
shared object file: No such file or directory
````

This suggests that the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environmental variable needs to be set.  
I infer that the proper setting is 
LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/home/mostafa/RegCM_LIBS/netcdf/lib"

This will tell the runtime linker where to find libnetcdf.  Thank you, I hope 
this helps,

-Ward
