You can check by looking in the file /mnt/data/bweinste/MEGAN/MEGANv2.10/local/hdf5/lib/libhdf5.settings for a line like: HDF5 Version: 1.8.13 which identifies the installed version. An error message you're getting when trying to run the netCDF tests seems to indicate an older HDF5 version, 1.8.4 (patch1), which is too old to pass the stringent tests in netCDF 4.3.2. > > ========================================= > > > > netCDF 4.3.2: ncdump/test-suite.log > > > > ========================================= > > > > # TOTAL: 39 > > # PASS: 37 > > # SKIP: 0 > > # XFAIL: 0 > > # FAIL: 2 > > # XPASS: 0 > > # ERROR: 0 > > > > .. contents:: :depth: 2 > > > > FAIL: tst_h_scalar > > > > ================== > > > > HDF5-DIAG: Error detected in HDF5 (1.8.4-patch1) thread 47514256252672: > > #000: ../../../src/H5T.c line 1595 in H5Tcreate(): unable to create type To build netCDF, you need to set CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS to point to your HDF5 installation directories, something like H5DIR=/mnt/data/bweinste/MEGAN/MEGANv2.10/local/hdf5 CPPFLAGS=-I${H5DIR}/include LDFLAGS=-L${H5DIR}/lib ./configure ... make check make install # (or sudo make install) --Russ Russ Rew UCAR Unidata Program address@hidden http://www.unidata.ucar.edu Ticket Details =================== Ticket ID: FLE-841916 Department: Support netCDF Priority: Normal Status: Closed
