configure: error: netcdf.mod not found in NETCDF_PATH/include

[shreya_dhame@student_unsw_edu_au]

Hi,

I am using CESM version 1.1.2 to build the B20TRLENS compset. I have attached my config_machines.xml, config_compiler.xml and other machine-specific files.

I am using the intel13 compiler with the following specs:-

<compiler COMPILER="intel13">
<PNETCDF_PATH></PNETCDF_PATH>
<ADD_CPPDEFS> -DFORTRANUNDERSCORE -DNO_R16</ADD_CPPDEFS>
<MPI_PATH>/apps/openmpi/1.6.3</MPI_PATH>
<MPICC>mpicc</MPICC>
<MPIFC>mpif90</MPIFC>
<MPICXX>mpicxx</MPICXX>
<CONFIG_ARGS></CONFIG_ARGS>
<ESMF_LIBDIR></ESMF_LIBDIR>
<FFLAGS> -fp-model source -convert big_endian -assume byterecl -ftz -traceback -assume realloc_lhs </FFLAGS>
<FREEFLAGS> -free </FREEFLAGS>
<FIXEDFLAGS> -fixed -132 </FIXEDFLAGS>
<CXX_LINKER>FORTRAN</CXX_LINKER>
<CXX_LDFLAGS> -cxxlib </CXX_LDFLAGS>
<ADD_CPPDEFS> -DCPRINTEL </ADD_CPPDEFS>
<SUPPORTS_CXX>TRUE</SUPPORTS_CXX>
<ADD_FFLAGS> -fPIC -g -O2 -I/apps/netcdf/4.7.1/include </ADD_FFLAGS>
<ADD_SLIBS> -L/apps/netcdf/4.7.1/lib/Intel -lnetcdff -L/apps/netcdf/4.7.1/lib -lnetcdf </ADD_SLIBS>
<SFC> ifort </SFC>
</compiler>

I can create the case and run ./cesm_setup successfully. However, on building the case, the buildlib.pio script fails with the following error:-

configure: error: netcdf.mod not found in NETCDF_PATH/include check the environment variable NETCDF_PATH

I checked the config.log file, it fails at the following lines of the /models/utils/pio/configure script:-

if test ! -f $NETCDF_PATH/include/netcdf.mod && \
test ! -f $NETCDF_PATH/include/NETCDF.mod
then { { $as_echo "$as_me:$LINENO: error: netcdf.mod not found in NETCDF_PATH/include \
check the environment variable NETCDF_PATH" >&5

The NETCDF_PATH in the env_mach_specific file is set to /apps/netcdf/4.7.1. It seems that the model is trying to find the netcdf.mod file at /apps/netcdf/4.7.1/include. However, the way the netcdf files are installed on my system (I do not have administrator privileges), the netcdf.mod file is located at /apps/netcdf/4.7.1/include/Intel.

How do I resolve this error? Is there a way I can make the model search for the file in a different path?

I have attached the pio build log files.

Thanks in advance...

I replaced the code

if test ! -f $NETCDF_PATH/include/netcdf.mod && \
test ! -f $NETCDF_PATH/include/NETCDF.mod
then { { $as_echo "$as_me:$LINENO: error: netcdf.mod not found in NETCDF_PATH/include \
check the environment variable NETCDF_PATH" >&5

with

if test ! -f $NETCDF_PATH/include/netcdf.mod && \
test ! -f $NETCDF_PATH/include/NETCDF.mod && \
test ! -f $NETCDF_PATH/include/Intel/netcdf.mod && \
then { { $as_echo "$as_me:$LINENO: error: netcdf.mod not found in NETCDF_PATH/include \
check the environment variable NETCDF_PATH" >&5

and that fixed it.
