<div dir="ltr">Hello, I've been installing WRF on so many different systems for something like twelve years now. It seems like maybe it's gotten tougher in recent years, especially as we try to install on mature Linux distributions where some of the dependencies come from the package management systems.<div><br></div><div>Just last month I was really fighting with an installation on Ubuntu 16.04, and it came down to problems with unexpected NetCDF configurations, as well as some of the GRIB2 dependencies. I stumbled on the pages of the WRF Tutorial where they take you, step by step, through the installation. They provide tests for your system, and have a good set of cookbook instructions for installing your own dependencies in your own account. It's a little extra work - OK, well maybe more than a little - but it's a sure-fire way to get a good installation. I'd highly recommend investigating it. The time you invest in doing it right might be much less than the time you spend stumbling around :)</div><div><br></div><div>Here's a link to the WRFv3.7 install instructions. I've seen similar for WRFV3.8 and I think 3.6:</div><div><a href="goog_1535085730"><br></a></div><div><a href="http://www2.mmm.ucar.edu/wrf/OnLineTutorial/compilation_tutorial.php">http://www2.mmm.ucar.edu/wrf/OnLineTutorial/compilation_tutorial.php</a><br></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br clear="all"><div><div class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr">---<div>Don Morton, Owner/Manager</div><div>Boreal Scientific Computing LLC</div><div>Fairbanks, Alaska USA</div><div><a href="http://www.borealscicomp.com/" target="_blank">http://www.borealscicomp.com/</a></div><div><a href="http://www.borealscicomp.com/Miscellaneous/MortonBio/" target="_blank">http://www.borealscicomp.com/Miscellaneous/MortonBio/</a></div></div></div></div>
