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

Hello,

I am trying to install MET6.0 but I am getting an error when I try to
install the NetCDF-C libaray.  I tried to follow the instructions from the
tutorial, but I already had all of the other libraries installed since I
have been using MET5.2.  This is the error:

/bin/sh ../libtool  --tag=CC   --mode=compile gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I..
 -I../include -I../oc2   -I/home/s4m/met-6.0_bugfix//external_libs/include
  -MT libnetcdf4_la-nc4file.lo -MD -MP -MF .deps/libnetcdf4_la-nc4file.Tpo
-c -o libnetcdf4_la-nc4file.lo `test -f 'nc4file.c' || echo './'`nc4file.c
libtool: compile:  gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I.. -I../include -I../oc2
-I/home/s4m/met-6.0_bugfix//external_libs/include -MT
libnetcdf4_la-nc4file.lo -MD -MP -MF .deps/libnetcdf4_la-nc4file.Tpo -c
nc4file.c  -fPIC -DPIC -o .libs/libnetcdf4_la-nc4file.o
nc4file.c: In function 'nc4_open_file':
nc4file.c:2316: error: 'H5LT_FILE_IMAGE_DONT_COPY' undeclared (first use in
this function)
nc4file.c:2316: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
nc4file.c:2316: error: for each function it appears in.)
nc4file.c:2316: error: 'H5LT_FILE_IMAGE_DONT_RELEASE' undeclared (first use
in this function)
make[1]: *** [libnetcdf4_la-nc4file.lo] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/Shannon.Rees/netcdf-c-4.4.1.1/libsrc4'

I have attached the full log files for the compile and make.  If I use
"--disable_netcdf4" it installs without error, but then the NetCDF-CXX
library cannot be installed.  I am also concerned that this is using the
gcc compiler, but I use intel to install MET.  Will this be a problem?

Thanks,
Shannon

Subject: NetCDF-C library installation for MET6.0
From: Julie Prestopnik
Time: Mon Aug 07 13:53:31 2017

Hi Shannon.

Yes, when compiling MET and all of the dependent libraries, the same
family
of compilers needs to be used.  Mixing compiler families will likely
result
in errors.

There are definitely differences in some of the dependent libraries
between
METv5.2 and METv6.0.  For METv5.2 we had users compiling NetCDF
version
4.1.1 or later, use the *--disable-netcdf-4* command line argument.
However, now we do not want to do that as you noted, because we are
now
using NetCDF4 and because NetCDF-CXX cannot be installed.  Also, HDF5
is
now a required library.  You may need to set LDFLAGS and CPPFLAGS when
installing HDF5.

Here are my installation instructions for HDF5 from my install on
"cheyenne":

Download the HDF5 package:
wget
https://support.hdfgroup.org/ftp/HDF5/releases/hdf5-1.8/hdf5-
1.8.18/src/hdf5-1.8.18.tar.gz
tar -zxf hdf5-1.8.18.tar.gz
cd hdf5-1.8.18
./configure --prefix=$iprefix --with-zlib=$libdir LDFLAGS=-L$libdir
CPPFLAGS=-I$incdir
make
make install

where the following vars are set:
export
libdir=/glade/p/ral/jnt/MET/MET_releases/cheyenne/external_libs/lib
export
incdir=/glade/p/ral/jnt/MET/MET_releases/cheyenne/external_libs/include
export
iprefix=/glade/p/ral/jnt/MET/MET_releases/cheyenne/external_libs/

I'll go ahead an list my install instructions for NetCDF-C and NetCDF-
CXX
below:

Download the NetCDF C package:
wget ftp://ftp.unidata.ucar.edu/pub/netcdf/netcdf-4.4.1.1.zip
unzip netcdf-4.4.1.1
cd netcdf-4.4.1.1
export FC=''
export F90=''
./configure --prefix=$iprefix LDFLAGS=-L$libdir CPPFLAGS=-I$incdir
make; make install


Download the NetCDF CXX package:
wget
https://www.gfd-dennou.org/arch/netcdf/unidata-mirror/netcdf-cxx4-
4.3.0.tar.gz
tar -zxf netcdf-cxx4-4.3.0.tar.gz
cd netcdf-cxx4-4.3.0
./configure --prefix=$iprefix LDFLAGS=-L$libdir CPPFLAGS=-I$incdir
make; make install

Please give those a try and let us know how it goes.

Also, depending on what machine you are running on, you may have
access to
METv6.0 already.  Please see this page for a list of existing MET
Builds:
http://www.dtcenter.org/met/users/downloads/existing_met_builds.php

I hope this helps.  Please let us know if you have any other questions
or
problems.

Thanks,
Julie

Subject: NetCDF-C library installation for MET6.0
From: Shannon Rees - NOAA Affiliate
Time: Tue Aug 08 12:22:01 2017

Hi Julie,

Thanks for your help!  I was able to install MET6.0 successfully
following
these directions.  I think the problem was that it was not linking
properly
to the HDF5 libraries already on this system so it was best to do a
fresh
HDF5 install.

Best,
Shannon

Great, Shannon!  Thanks for letting us know that you were able to
install
MET successfully.  I'll go ahead and close this ticket.
