You can put it wherever you want. You just need to be sure to setenv NCARG_ROOT to point to the parent location, and add $NCARG_ROOT/bin to your search path, which it sounds like you did.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">For the "ncargex cpex08" issue: If you only plan to use NCL, then it's not important that this test work. The "ncargex" command tests the C and Fortran libraries for people that are using C and/or Fortran to generate their graphics, rather than NCL.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">If you still want to get this test to work, then I think the issue is that you have a libXext.so.x.y file, but not a libXext.so file. Usually libXext.so is a symbolic link to libXext.so.x.y. You might want to look into how this software was installed, and make sure it was installed correctly.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">--Mary</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"><br></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Tue, Jun 16, 2015 at 6:11 AM, HAVENER, KEVIN F GS-12 USAF ACC 14 WS/WXED <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:kevin.havener@us.af.mil" target="_blank">kevin.havener@us.af.mil</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">I untarred the RH6.4_x86-64 binary into my home dir and set my path accordingly. First question is, is this binary relocatable or does it need to be in a system level directory? The "ng4ex gsun10 -clean" command works as expected. However the "ncargex cpex08 -clean" test yields:<br>

What do I have to do to get NCAR Graphics working? Is there a resource on the website that I'm missing?<br>
