[ncl-install] Library problem - a script in NCL

[Negin Moghaddam]

Hi Orion,

After fixing the library for NCAR, I ran the following scritp after putting
the plot_points.ans, *.csh, *.dat, and *.f in the working folder.

[neginm at civ-1215x Subsurface-Modelling-Monash]$ ncargf77 -o plot_points.x
plot_points.f
/usr/bin/gfortran -fPIC -fno-second-underscore -fno-range-check -fopenmp -O
-o plot_points.x plot_points.f -L/usr/local/ncl-6.3.0/lib -L/usr/lib64
-lncarg -lncarg_gks -lncarg_c -lX11 -lXext -lcairo -lfontconfig -lpixman-1
-lfreetype -lexpat -lpng -lz -lpthread -lXrender -lbz2
[neginm at civ-1215x Subsurface-Modelling-Monash]$ ls
plot_points.ans
plot_points.csh
plot_points.csh~
plot_points.dat
plot_points.f
plot_points.x

Then I tried:
[neginm at civ-1215x Subsurface-Modelling-Monash]$ chmod 755 plot_points.csh
[neginm at civ-1215x Subsurface-Modelling-Monash]$ ls
plot_points.csh
plot_points.csh~
plot_points.dat
plot_points.f
plot_points.x

However, when I run the code as :
[neginm at civ-1215x Subsurface-Modelling-Monash]$ plot_points.csh
bash: plot_points.csh: command not found

Or with

[neginm at civ-1215x Subsurface-Modelling-Monash]$ ./plot_points.csh
./plot_points.csh: line 1: plot_points.x: command not found
ctrans: Can't open metafile(plot_points.cgm) [ No such file or directory ]

The pdf and ps files came out with no content.


I checked the web and it said, the outcome of running ncargf77 should
include *.cgm which I noticed in second line of your script is one of the
inputs.

I used the test example for NCAR as :
[neginm at civ-1215x ~]$ ncargex cpex08 -clean

NCAR Graphics Fortran  Example <cpex08>

  Copying cpex08.f

  Copying cpexcc.f

Compiling and linking...
/usr/bin/gfortran -fPIC -fno-second-underscore -fno-range-check -fopenmp -O
-o cpex08 cpexcc.f cpex08.f -L/usr/local/ncl-6.3.0/lib -L/usr/lib64 -lncarg
-lncarg_gks -lncarg_c -lX11 -lXext -lcairo -lfontconfig -lpixman-1
-lfreetype -lexpat -lpng -lz -lpthread -lXrender -lbz2

Executing <cpex08>...
 PLOT TITLE WAS EXAMPLE 8
 INTEGER WORKSPACE USED          120
    REAL WORKSPACE USED          400
    AREA MAP SPACE USED        93250
 PLOT TITLE WAS EXAMPLE 8
 INTEGER WORKSPACE USED          120
    REAL WORKSPACE USED          400
    AREA MAP SPACE USED       866064

Metafile file is named cpex08.ncgm. The ncgm meta data file was built, but
nothing as a picture or graph came out.

Could you please let me know why ncgm file did not built for my script and
how I can fix it?

Thank you
