<div>Dear sir,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Thank you very much for your mail... Happy to see that. We didn't have gmake utility in our IBM system.. I have installed that (GNU make 3.81) in my user account by downloading from <a href="ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/make/" target="_blank">ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/make/</a><br>
</div>
<div>It was successfully installed and tried to compile METV2.0. Then also i am getting the same error.</div>

<br>I'm guessing the issue here is the version of "make" that you're using. The standard "make" on IBM in not GNU Make. The MET Makefiles are set up to make use of GNU Make, which we list as a<br>
requirement in section 2.4 of the MET User's Guide:<br> <a href="http://www.dtcenter.org/met/users/docs/users_guide/MET_Users_Guide_v2.0_rev2.pdf" target="_blank">http://www.dtcenter.org/met/users/docs/users_guide/MET_Users_Guide_v2.0_rev2.pdf</a><br>
<br>I've compiled MET on NCAR's IBM machine, bluefire. And GNU Make is available on bluefire in /usr/local/bin/gmake. So instead of typing "make" in the top-level MET directory, I type "gmake", and it<br>
works. Take a look and see if gmake is available on your system. If not, I'd suggest asking your system's administrator for assistance.<br><br>Once you do get MET to compile, please be sure to run the test scripts in the "scripts" directory. Take a look at the output to see if any of the test scripts failed.<br>
<br>Hope that helps,<br>John Halley Gotway<br><a href="mailto:johnhg@ucar.edu" target="_blank">johnhg@ucar.edu</a><br>
