[ncl-install] warning:WorkstationMarker:libncarg Error:PLCHHQ/PCFOPN - ERROR OPENING PWRITX DATA FILE /usr/share/ncarg/database/PlotcharData

[HAVENER, KEVIN F GS-12 USAF ACC 14 WS/WXED]

Which version of ncl are you expecting:  6.1.2 or 6.3.0?  You might want to try executing /home/alexsemenov/Desktop/NCL/ncl_ncarg-6.3.0/bin/ncl to see if the 6.3.0 installation is intact.

I'm guessing the older ncl might have been installed by a package manager while the newer was compiled locally in your home directory?  Not sure how, but you have commingled two separate versions of ncl and the paths are not set correctly for one or both.  In your .bashrc (or equivalent):

export NCARG_ROOT=/home/alexsemenov/Desktop/ncl_ncarg-6.3.0
export PATH=$NCARG_ROOT/bin:$PATH

should put your 6.3.0 installation at the front of your path and therefore ignore the other ncl installation.

Dear NCL-users,

When I run an ncl script on my machine I receive a stream of errors that I think have something to do with the way I installed NCL on my machine.

Any help is appreciated.

$ which ncl 
/usr/bin/ncl
$ env | grep NCARG
NCARG_ROOT=/home/alexsemenov/Desktop/NCL/ncl_ncarg-6.3.0/
$ ncargpath lib
/home/alexsemenov/Desktop/NCL/ncl_ncarg-6.3.0/lib
$ ncargpath ncarg
/usr/share/ncarg
$ ncl -V
6.1.2
