Hi
I am attaching my notes on netcdf installation with hdf5. Have a look at it
and see if your issue gets resolve. These are not perfect expert notes but
may help you.
*INSTALLATION*
I made two directories as follow
/opt/hdf5/ and /opt/netcdf/
1. *Install zlib in hdf5 directory:*
cd /source/code/folder
./configure --prefix=/opt/hdf5
2. *Get source code from hdf website and un-tar it (**Don't use binaries)*
$ cd hdf5-X.Y.Z
Do this only if you get an error.
-For Mac OSX Snow Leopard, Lion and Mountain Lion (before Mavericks)
vi ./config/gnu-flags/
change following line
gcc-4.*)
PROD_CFLAGS="-O0”
OR (if gnu-flags file is missing)
CFLAGS=-O0 ./configure
For Linux and Mac OSX Mavericks it worked without above changes
3. *For fortran & cpp support with compression*
./configure --prefix=/opt/hdf5/ --enable-fortran
--enable-cxx --with-zlib=/opt/hdf5/
These check-tests should not be failed!
Always run these commands in the same order as below.
$ sudo make
$ sudo make check # run test suite.
$ sudo make install #install the library
$ sudo make check-install # verify installation.
*4. In netcdf source directory*
CPPFLAGS=-I/opt/hdf5/include/ LDFLAGS=-L/opt/hdf5/lib/ ./configure
--prefix=/opt/netcdf/ --enable-netcdf-4
sudo make check install
If successful it will show a congratulatory message.
