Initial Request
----------------------------------------------------------------
Dear helpers,
I am trying to install MET on my office laptop under linux Ubuntu. After (i suspect) succesfull installation of netcdf(3.6.3), bufrlib and GSL l now get the following error messages when making MET.
I am attaching the log and user_defs file and hope you can help.
Kind regards, Emma

Emma,
I see that you're having problems compiling METv4.0. Thanks for
sending the "make_met.log" file. However, if you continue to have
problems, please also send me the "user_def.mk" file instead of the
"met_defs.mk" file. That's where your user settings go.
But looking in the make_met.log file, I do see a couple of problems -
one easy and one puzzling...
First, the easy one - it looks like you're trying to compile using the
gcc compiler. Instead, you should be using the g++ compiler.
Please do the following:
(1) If you haven't already done so, please apply the latest set of
patches for METv4.0:
http://www.dtcenter.org/met/users/support/known_issues/METv4.0/index.php
(2) Edit the top-level "user_defs.mk" as follows:
CXX = /set/this/path/to/g++
(3) Clean out the build:
make clean
(4) Rebuild MET:
make >& make_met.log
Second, the more puzzling one. Based on the error you're getting, it
is also possible that something in the build isn't working as
expected. Specifically, in the file "met_defs.mk", look at the
following line:
MET_BASE_DIR = $(PWD)
That is supposed to indicate the path where MET is being built. But
in your case, that might be evaluating to an empty string. On the
command line please type the following:
echo $PWD
If that doesn't tell you the current directory you're in, then that's
a problem. You could always manually set it:
MET_BASE_DIR = /path/to/METv4.0
But if this really is a problem, I'd like to figure out a better fix.
In case you're not aware of it, there is a compilation section of the
online tutorial:
http://www.dtcenter.org/met/users/support/online_tutorial/METv4.0/compilation/index.php
And feel free to write back with the "make_met.log" and "user_defs.mk"
files attached.
Hope that helps.

Dear John,
Thank you for the fast and adequate reply. I couldn't make sense of
the error messages myself.
The pwd was no problem at all and I just overlooked the g++ compiler
(dumb!). Obviously I meant to attach the user_def file (dumb again!).
The online tutorial is a big help and I've now gotten to the stage it
says:
You have now successfully compiled and run MET!
Thanks for your time.
Kind regards, Emma

Emma,
Great, thanks for letting me know. I'll go ahead and resolve this
ticket.
If more questions come up in your use of MET, just let us know.
Thanks,
