[Met_help] Installation Problem

[John Halley Gotway]

Kumar,

I looks to me that it's failing in the same spot with the same error message.  There is more output in the logfile this time since you did a "make clean" first.  So that fix I suggested didn't help.

This is a NetCDF error that I've never seen before.  The compiler is complaining that some of the things in the file "ncvalues.h" have not been defined.  And the things that it's looking for are 
defined in the file "netcdf.h" which should be included from "ncvalue.h".

What I'd suggest at this point is trying to redo your netCDF build.  My best guess is that there may be something wrong with your NetCDF build.  So get rid of the directory: 
/cpc/africawrf/util/netcdf-3.6.1

And try rebuilding NetCDF from scratch.

When you do, please do the following:
 > cd /cpc/africawrf/util
 > tar -xvzf netcdf-3.6.1.tar.gz
 > cd /cpc/africawrf/util/netcdf-3.6.1/src
 > ./configure --prefix=/cpc/africawrf/util/netcdf-3.6.1
 > make check
 > make install

And hopefully NetCDF will build without errors.

Then in your MET top-level Makefile, set the NETCDF parameters as follows:
NETCDF_BASE  = //cpc/africawrf/util/netcdf-3.6.1
NETCDF_INCS  = -I$(NETCDF_BASE)/include
NETCDF_LIBS  = -L$(NETCDF_BASE)/src/lib

Then try doing a "make clean" followed by a "make >& make_met.log&".
