[Met_help] [rt.rap.ucar.edu #88117] History for Problem installing MET on HPC.

Thu Dec 13 08:04:30 MST 2018

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

Hi,

I am encountering a problem when installing MET at a HPC. The installation stopped at "pixman".

Here is the message:

Compiling pixman at Tue Dec 11 14:47:22 CST 2018
cd /Users/wzhang89/MET-NCAR/external_libs/pixman/pixman-0.34.0
./configure --prefix=/Users/wzhang89/MET-NCAR/external_libs > configure.log 2>&1
make > make.log 2>&1
make returned with non-zero (2) status

Do you have any idea what the problem is? Here I attach the make.log and configure.log. Thank you for your help.

Best,
Wei

Hi Wei.

I see that you are having trouble with one of the dependencies that is
needed by the Cairo library, which is needed by MET if you would like
to
use the MODE-Graphics tool.  If you do not need to use the MODE-
Graphics
tool, you do not need to compile Cairo and can simply not include "
*--enable-mode_graphics*" in your ./configure command in configuring
MET.
However, If you do wish to use the MODE-Graphics tool, then we need to
get
Cairo to compile and first get pixman to compile.  Pixman is not
generally
necessary to install.  Many machines already have it installed,
however, I
have encountered a couple of machines that needed to have pixman
installed.  However, unfortunately, I have not previously encountered
the
error you are seeing.  In any case, I'll see if I can help out.

The error:

> /opt/apps/libpng/1.6.28/lib/libpng16.so: undefined reference to
> `inflateValidate at ZLIB_1.2.9'
>

seems to indicate there may be an issue with the zlib library.

In your config.log file, I see that you have set LDFLAGS to
-L/Users/wzhang89/WRF/WRFV3/library/zlib/lib and have set CPPFLAGS to
-I/Users/wzhang89/MET-NCAR/external_libs/include.  Can you please tell
me
if the include files for zlib are in
/Users/wzhang89/MET-NCAR/external_libs/include?  If they are not,
could you
please include the path to the zlib include files in your value for
CPPFLAGS and try re-configuring pixman and running make again?

Thanks,
Julie

Hi, Julie,

I have solved the problem by adding the path to the zlib include files
in the value for CPPFLAGS. I have installed MET in the HPC. Thank you
for your help.

Regards,
Wei

In your config.log file, I see that you have set LDFLAGS to
-L/Users/wzhang89/WRF/WRFV3/library/zlib/lib and have set CPPFLAGS to
-I/Users/wzhang89/MET-NCAR/external_libs/include.  Can you please tell
me if the include files for zlib are in /Users/wzhang89/MET-
NCAR/external_libs/include?  If they are not, could you please include
the path to the zlib include files in your value for CPPFLAGS and try
re-configuring pixman and running make again?

Thanks,
Julie
