Golam,

I see you're having trouble installing the MET software.  Wow, 30
hours of
installation time is very, very, very long!  When compiling all the
dependent libraries and MET, I've seen it take up to about an hour.
So if
it really is taking 30 hours to compile on your machine, I worry that
your
machine may be very old or very slow.  If so, I'd recommend finding
newer
and faster hardware.

But on to the compilation error... this means that MET isn't able to
locate
the NetCDF header files it needs.  When you run "configure" for MET,
the
"MET_NETCDF" environment variable defines where the NetCDF library is
installed.  So the first thing I'd check is how that is set.  Go to
the
top-level met-8.0 directory and run this command:

*   grep MET_NETCDF config.log*

On my machine, the last 3 lines of output look like this:


*MET_NETCDF='/usr/local/netcdf'MET_NETCDFINC='${MET_NETCDF}/include'MET_NETCDFLIB='${MET_NETCDF}/lib'*

That means that MET is using NetCDF which is installed in
/usr/local/netcdf.  And the header files it needs live in
/usr/local/netcdf/include.  Here's a listing of the header files from
that
directory:

[johnhg at dakota]% ls /usr/local/netcdf/include
ncAtt.h   ncChar.h   ncCompoundType.h  ncDouble.h    ncException.h
ncFloat.h     ncGroup.h  ncInt.h         ncShort.h   ncType.h
ncUint64.h
ncUshort.h  ncVarAtt.h  ncVlenType.h  netcdfcpp.h  netcdf.hh
netcdf_meta.h  typesizes.mod
ncByte.h  ncCheck.h  ncDim.h           ncEnumType.h  ncFile.h
ncGroupAtt.h  ncInt64.h  ncOpaqueType.h  ncString.h  ncUbyte.h
ncUint.h
ncvalues.h  ncVar.h     netcdf        netcdf.h     netcdf.inc
netcdf.mod

What does yours look like?

Thanks,
John Halley Gotway
