<br>
I am trying to run some of the utilities provided for WRF Data Assimilation tutorial (gen_be_global_evecs.ncl) on a </span><span style="cursor: pointer; background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% transparent; font-family: times new roman,new york,times,serif;" class="yshortcuts" id="lw_1284144467_0">PC Intel Core</span><span style="font-family: times new roman,new york,times,serif;">
2 Quad, having LINUX Fidora 9.0 with ifort & icc compilers. Details
of the machine specifications are given at the end. I had installed
pre-compiled binary of the NCAR graphics
(ncl_ncarg-5.0.0.Linux_i686_opendap_gcc4.tar.gz). Further, I have
installed the 'ncl' today using,<br>
<br>
yum -y install ncl <br>
<br>
I am getting a silly problem. I am not able to use the command 'ncl'. It gives the following error message:<br>
<br>
<span style="font-weight: bold;">ncl: error while loading shared libraries: libdap.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory</span><br>
<br>
</span></font><font size="3"><span style="font-family: times new roman,new york,times,serif;">However,
I am able to generate plots based on the NCAR graphics using some of
the other WRF tutorial utilities, such as Map_plot.exe, etc. I am also
able to view the 'gmeta' file generated by the plot utilities by using
'idt'.<br>
<br>
I shall appreciate your help to resolve the above error. Thank you.<br style="font-family: times new roman,new york,times,serif;">
