[Met_help] [rt.rap.ucar.edu #70732] History for Can't get 'okular' and 'ncdump' to run on Zeus

[John Halley Gotway via RT]

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

Met Help,

I'm trying to test my ability to run MET on Zeus. I've been able to run the
PB2NC part and generate data and plots, however, I am having problems using
the ncdump and okular commands on the output.

ncdump gives me the following error ....

Zeus4:/home/Tanya.Peevey/gosa/projects/MET/met-5.0>ncdump -h
tutorial/out/pb2nc/tutorial_pb_run1.nc
ncdump: symbol lookup error: ncdump: undefined symbol: nc_inq_typeids


okular gives me the following error ....

Zeus4:/home/Tanya.Peevey/gosa/projects/MET/met-5.0>okular
tutorial/out/plot_point_obs/tutorial_pb_run1.ps
okular: Command not found.


Thanks,
Tanya Peevey

Tanya,

I apologize for the delay in getting back to you.  okular is just a
way to
display postscript and pdf files.  Please try using /usr/bin/gv to
display
postscript files ending in .ps.

Regarding the error you're getting from ncdump, try running:
   module load netcdf

And then run "ncdump -h" again.

To run the MET tools on zeus, you may need to edit your ~/.cshrc file
by
adding this:
   setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH
/scratch1/portfolios/BMC/dtc/MET/external_libs_intel/lib:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}

Then run:
   source ~/.cshrc

That tells the shell where to find the runtime libraries that the MET
tools
need.

Please give those suggestions a shot and let me know if you have more
issues/questions.

Thanks,
John Halley Gotway

John,

I can use gv. This is what I have used in the past so it is no
problem. I
just thought okular loaded faster so I wanted to try and use that
instead.
I have both of the above things you suggest (module load netcdf and
setenv
LD_LIBRARY_PATH) are already in my .cshrc file, which one revision. I
put
the following for setenv

setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH
/scratch1/portfolios/BMC/dtc/MET/MET_cross_platform_testing/met-
5.0/MET_releases/gnu/external_libs/lib
setenv PATH
.:$HOME/gosa/bin:/$GRADS/bin:$GFSUTIL/util/exec:$GFSUTIL/exec:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}:$PATH

I don't think this revision should be a problem since MET is running
fine
for me but please let me know if it is.

I am talking with Zeus Help to see why ncdump isn't working for me. I
think
I'll be able to figure it out with their help, but thanks anyway for
the
suggestions.

Thanks,
Tanya Peevey
