I would export you NCARG environment in .bashrc not .bash_profile. In my experience, I've been bitten too many times by the the fact that the .bash_profile belongs to login shells, and .bashrc is more general applying to subshells and such. So in my
.bash_profile II just tend to source my .bshrc and keep my configuration there.<br>

Subject: [ncl-install] Error message: fatal:Could not open ($NCARG_ROOT/lib/ncarg/nclscri<wbr>pts/csm/contributed.ncl)<br>
<br>
Hi,<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
I’ve just installed ncl 6.2.1 and am getting the following error message when I try to run a scrip:<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
fatal:Could not open ($NCARG_ROOT/lib/ncarg/nclscri<wbr>pts/csm/contributed.ncl)<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
I have looked through posts from other people who have had similar error messages, but I’m sure my NCARG_ROOT environment is correctly set:<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
In my .bash_profile I have:<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
export NCARG_ROOT=/usr/local/ncl-6.2.<wbr>1<br>
<br>
export PATH=$NCARG_ROOT/bin:$PATH<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
And I have run the following checks:<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
env | grep NCARG<br>
<br>
NCARG_ROOT=/usr/local/ncl-6.2.<wbr>1<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
which ncl<br>
<br>
/usr/local/ncl-6.2.1/bin/ncl<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
ncl -V<br>
<br>
6.2.1<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Rebecca<br>
