Your file "configure.log" looked OK.

Your file "make.log" looked OK.

Your file "test.log" looked OK.

Your file "install.log" indicated the following problem:

> make[1]: Entering directory `/usr3/plasma/dastgeer/netcdf-3.4/src'
> 
> Making `install' in directory /usr3/plasma/dastgeer/netcdf-3.4/src/libsrc
> 
> make[2]: Entering directory `/usr3/plasma/dastgeer/netcdf-3.4/src/libsrc'
> test -d /usr3/plasma/netcdf-3.4/net/lib || mkdir 
> /usr3/plasma/netcdf-3.4/net/lib
> mkdir: cannot access directory /usr3/plasma/netcdf-3.4/net
> /usr3/plasma/netcdf-3.4/net: No such file or directory

The error messages above indicate that the top-level installation
directory "/usr3/plasma/netcdf-3.4/net" does not exist.  Perhaps
you intended to install the netCDF package under the directory
"/usr3/plasma/dastgeer/netcdf-3.4" (which does exist)?

To solve this problem, you may do either of the following:

    A.  Ensure that the directory "/usr3/plasma/netcdf-3.4/net" exists
        and is writable by you and then install the netCDF package.

or

    B.  Reconfigure the netCDF package so that it installs under an
        existing directory (e.g. "/usr3/plasma/dastgeer/netcdf-3.4").

For A above, do the following:

    1.  Create the top-level, installation directory
        "/usr3/plasma/netcdf-3.4/net".

    2.  Go to the top-level, netCDF source directory.

    3.  Perform step 9 near the end of the INSTALL file.

For B above, do the following:

    1.  Go to the top-level, netCDF source directory.

    2.  Perform steps 3 through 5 near the end of the INSTALL file.

    3.  Perform step 6 near the end of the install file but ensure that
        the "--prefix=..." option is either not specified or that it
        references an existing, writable, directory.

    4.  Perform steps 7 through 9 near the end of the INSTALL file.

Please let me know if this helps.
