[Wrf-users] runtime error: WRFV3 on Intel Mac (ifort w/ gcc)

[Todd Ringler]

I am having a few problems getting WFRV3 to run on my Mac OS X (Intel)  
system. I am using OS X 10.5.3 with ifort 10.1.014 and gcc 4.0.1. I am  
trying to move to 64 bit, but that has had its own problems so I am  
still creating 32 bit executables.

When compiling for 32 bit executables, the only modification I need to  
make to the WRFV3 distribution is to add $(WRF_SRC_ROOT_DIR)/frame/ 
module_domain_type.o to LDFLAGS_LOCAL in the arch/ 
configure_new.defaults (as described at WRFBLOG). I am compiling in  
debug mode and using Totalview.

With this setup I get executables. Whether it is in ideal.exe or  
wrf.exe, the executable dies (with a Segmentation Fault) on a call to  
"model_to_grid_config_rec". In this case (from ideal.exe built with ./ 
compile em_grav2d_x in serial mode) the calling sequence is:

CALL med_initialdata_output( head_grid , config_flags )
	CALL init_domain ( grid )
		CALL init_domain_rk( grid &
			CALL model_to_grid_config_rec ( grid%id , model_config_rec ,  
config_flags )

If I look at the stack immediately before the call to  
model_to_grid_config_rec I do see a whole host of arrays with bad  
addresses, such as: rqvcuten:                         <Bad address:  
0xbbf56540> (REAL*4(:,:,:)) (this may or may not be relevant).

My hope is that someone has seen this error before and can provide  
some advice on how to fix it.

Cheers,
Todd
