[Wrf-users] Re: Compilation Problem (Rafik Djouad)

Steve:

I did what you suggested and I still have this problem when compiling in 
src/f90/  (the make test).

make[2]: Entering directory `/home/oper/NETCDF/netcdf-3.6.0/src/f90'
pgf90 -o netcdf_test   netcdf_test.f90 netcdf.o typeSizes.o 
../libsrc/libnetcdf.a
netcdf_test.f90:

netcdf.o(.text+0x29): In function `netcdf_nf90_inq_libvers_':
: undefined reference to `nf_inq_libvers_'
netcdf.o(.text+0x80): In function `netcdf_nf90_strerror_':
: undefined reference to `nf_strerror_'
netcdf.o(.text+0xd4): In function `netcdf_nf90_inq_base_pe_':
: undefined reference to `nf_inq_base_pe_'
netcdf.o(.text+0x104): In function `netcdf_nf90_set_base_pe_':
: undefined reference to `nf_set_base_pe_'
netcdf.o(.text+0x16a): In function `netcdf_nf90_create_':
........................................etc

Apparently, there are missing libraries or some similar problem.
Anyway, if I use the produced libraries to compile WRF I get this:

make[2]: Entering directory `/home/oper/WRF/WRFV2/external/io_netcdf'
/lib/cpp -C -P -traditional -C -P  diffwrf.F90 > diffwrf.f
pgf90 -w -byteswapio -Mfree -tp p6  -c  -I/usr/local/include diffwrf.f

diffwrf is being built now.
wrf_io.o(.text+0x23cc): In function `ext_ncd_support_routines_gettimeindex_':
: undefined reference to `nf_put_vara_text_'
wrf_io.o(.text+0x3c42): In function `ext_ncd_support_routines_netcdf_err_':
: undefined reference to `nf_strerror_'
wrf_io.o(.text+0xb44a): In function `ext_ncd_open_for_read_begin_':
: undefined reference to `nf_open_'
wrf_io.o(.text+0xb5fc): In function `ext_ncd_open_for_read_begin_':
: undefined reference to `nf_inq_varid_'

Any hint would be much appreciated..
Regards
Rafik
