Hi Dave, You did everything right to build and install the netCDF C library, but you still have to build and install the netCDF Fortran library. The C, Fortran, and C++ libraries have been in separate distributions since version 4.1.3. They were separated to make the processes of building and diagnosing errors simpler, as well as to fix some problems with 32- and 64-bit libraries for multiple Fortan compilers on the same platform. Just get the netcdf-fortran-4.2 distribution (the latest operational release) from our netCDF downloads page or ftp://ftp.unidata.ucar.edu/pub/netcdf/netcdf-fortran-4.2.tar.gz and build/install it according to these instructions: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf/docs/netcdf-fortran-install.html Please let us know if you have any problems. --Russ > I'm trying to compile the WRF model under Mac OS X v.10.8.4, using the Intel > Fortran compiler (ifort, v.11.1), and the Apple cc compiler (v.4.2).
