Hi, > I built netcdf-c-4.3.1 from the latest release candidate 2 against > hdf5-1.8.11, 64bit, compiled by the sysadmins of the HPC I am using (IBM > Power6). Unfortunately, make check fails in directory ncdump for 5 tests, and > I think they are all related to scalar variables/dataspaces in NetCDF4 files. I see you are enabling many options for configure: > $ ./configure --prefix=/pf/k/k203080/3rdparty --enable-netcdf4 > --enable-extra-example-tests --enable-dependency-tracking > --enable-dap-long-tests --enable-extra-tests --enable-large-file-tests > --enable-shared --enable-static We don't test releases with all combinations of configure options enabled. The default configure will run the tests we use for development. It will also build a library with netCDF-4 enabled (if an HDF5 library is found installed where CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS), with DAP remote access enabled (if libcurl is installed), and with shared and static libraries. The --enable-dap-long-tests and --enable-extra-example-tests are intended for developers, and may sometimes include tests that don't yet pass on all platforms, especially in release candidates. > I read about a problem with scalar data in NetCDF4 files with the earlier > version 4.3.0 (for which I got three failures in ncdump) and that this was > fixed in rc1. Presumably my assumption that the bug was related to the > failures was wrong? We don't know yet. All the ncdump tests pass on our test platforms, including Linux, Solaris, OSX, and Windows, but we don't have access to an up-to-date AIX platform on which we can duplicate the problems you are seeing. > I am attaching my config.log that contains all the necessary information for > my build and the ncdump/test-suite.log. > > Note that I can use the NetCDF library without problems with WRF, so I am not > sure if it is a real problem - but I wanted to report it as requested in the > make check output. Thanks for reporting the problems! If we can reproduce them, we'll put them in our bug-tracking system for fixing. --Russ > Regards > > Dom > > -- > Dr. Dominikus Heinzeller > > Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) > Institute for Meteorology and Climate Research (IMK-IFU) > Kreuzeckbahnstr. 19 > 82467 Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Germany > > Phone +49-8821-183259 > Email address@hidden > Russ Rew UCAR Unidata Program address@hidden http://www.unidata.ucar.edu Ticket Details =================== Ticket ID: FIL-651276 Department: Support netCDF Priority: Normal Status: Closed
