  Initial Request
----------------------------------------------------------------

Dear MET Help,

I compiled MET on the UCAR Yellowstone.
However, I got ERROR message at Running PB2NC on a PREPBUFR file as shown
below.
I had the same error message at my first compilation of MET so I did make
clean and recompiled MET adding "--disable-block4" at configuration.
But the error remains the same.
I wonder if it is a real compilation error or not.
Thank you.

Regards,

Jinwoong Yoo

Subject: Re: Comparing WRF-ARW outputs and CCSM4 outputs
From: Julie Prestopnik

Hello.  I see you are having problems running pb2nc in the test
scripts
after installing METv5.0 on yellowstone.  Unfortunately, our lead
engineer
is out of town for a few days, and I do not have as much experience
with
the MET software.

METv5.0 is installed on yellowstone and the executables can be found
here:
/glade/p/ral/jnt/MET/MET_releases/met-5.0/bin/

If you do not need to have your own installation you can use the
executables that are currently installed.

I ran pb2nc with the executable directory I listed above with the
prepbufr
file and config file in your area, sending the output to my area, and
was
able to get a successful run:

Will using those executables be sufficient for you, or is it necessary
for
you to use the executables from your own build?

Thanks,
Julie

Dear Julie,

Thank you very much for your reply.
I couldn't find MET on the Yellowstone via "module av". That's why I
tried
to build it for myself.
But, I'm glad to know that METv5.0 is available on the Yellowstone
already.
Then, I don't need my build.
Thank you much!

Excellent!  I'm glad to hear that you can use what is on yellowstone
already.

It looks like you're working with John regarding a UPP issue on this
same
ticket, so I will leave it open until that is resolved.
