<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Dear list users,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Here is a problem I ran into when I tried to nstall
WRF-NMM V2.2 in a 64 bit RHEL WS 4 with PGI 7.0-2 choosing Option 3
(RSL-LITE, MPICH, Allowing Nesting, No periodic LBC). The installation was
always running in an infinite loop and taking up almost 4 GB of physical memory
and half of 10 GB swap space. During one installation, I let it run over night.
When I came back next morning, it was still trying to compile
start_domain_nmm.f90 after more than 8 hourcompilation. However, it did not give
any error message in the compile log file, but just simply hanged there forever.
Here is the last line of compilation where complilation went into a
loop:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>mpif90 -c -fastsse -w -byteswapio -Mfree -I../dyn_em
-I../dyn_nmm -module ../main -I../external/io_netcdf -I../external/io_int
-I../external/esmf_time_f90 -I../external -I../frame -I../share -I../phys
-I../inc -I../chem -r4 -i4 start_domain_nmm.f90<BR></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>However, when I switched to Option 2 (RSL, MPICH,
Allowing nesting), compilation went through easily in less than a hour. Both
WRF-NMM and WPS were properly installed, and work fine with this choice, but WRF
Postprocessor compilation won't work due to lack of prepor RSL-LITE libraries
and other objet files. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>My question is: is there any fix for the
installation problem when using Option 3 for 64 bit Linux? I noticed on
Wrf-users online and found someone posted a similar problem. However, I haven't
seen a solution to it yet. Any help is greatly appreciated. </FONT></DIV>
