Hi Mario,

Thanks for the information.

I tested this on a virtual machine with Ubuntu 17.10 Artful Aardvark and was able to get NCL working after installing the following packages:
sudo apt install libgfortran3 libgomp1 libfontconfig1 libxrender1

The ncl_ncarg-6.4.0-Debian8.6_64bit_nodap_gnu492.tar.gz package should work in this situation; the “nodap” version is perfectly fine if you have no need for OPeNDAP support.

Please let us know if installing those packages still does not fix the issue.

I hope this helps!
Kevin

Good morning Kevin,

I am running Ubuntu Artful Ardvark, Architecture: x86_64, with gcc (Ubuntu 7.2.0-8ubuntu3.2) 7.2.0.

I believe I used the "not OPeNDAP-enabled" version, ncl_ncarg-6.4.0-Debian8.6_64bit_nodap_gnu492.tar.gz .  If this is the wrong version is it as simple as deleting the ~/ncl-6.4.0 dir and reinstalling the OPeNDAP-enabled version?

Thanks,

Mario

Hi Mario,

Which Linux distribution are you running? Based on the information from your email, it looks like you might be on a 32-bit Linux system.

How did you install NCL? Did you install one of the binary release tarballs from this webpage<https://www.earthsystemgrid.org/dataset/ncl.640.dap/file.html>, and if so which one? If you are in fact on a 32-bit system, the only option on that page is "ncl_ncarg-6.4.0-Debian7.11_32bit_gnu472.tar.gz”.

Thanks,
Kevin

Hello All,

I have recently begun working on my research using a program called PALM.  They have a built in script that makes use of NCL to visualize the data output.  I have made several unsuccessful attempts to make use of it and keep getting the error:

ncl: error while loading shared libraries: libgfortran.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I have followed the steps on your Download/linux.shtml page, with the following results:



input:  locate libgfortran.so.3
output:  /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libgfortran.so.3
             /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libgfortran.so.3.0.0

input:  export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib
output:  ncl: error while loading shared libraries: libgfortran.so.3:               cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

input:  export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu
output:  ncl: error while loading shared libraries: libgfortran.so.3:               wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32


Please help me figure out how to make use of NCL to visualize my data.  The data is in an NetCDF file.


Best Regards,

Mario R. Naranjo
