linking with NETCDF lib fails in AIX

[kazemoor]

Dear All
I compiled the yambo successfully in p6 machines without NETCDF. I installed NETCDF successfully , But now I am trying to recompile with NETCDF according to following:
./configure --build=powerpc-ibm FC=xlf90_r F77=xlf_r CC=xlc_r CPP=cpp FCFLAGS="-O2 -q64 -qstrict -qarch=pwr6 -qtune=pwr6 -qmaxmem=-1 -qsuffix=f=f" CFLAGS="-q64" UFFLAGS="-q64 -O0" --with-p2y="4.0" --with-iotk=/u/kazempou/espresso-4.0.5/iotk --with-netcdf-include="/usr/local/include" --with-netcdf-lib="/usr/local/lib"

But the configuration dosn't find the path /usr/local/include and /usr/local/lib
and the message is:
checking for NetCDF in /usr/local/lib... no

in lib directory I have following files:
libnetcdf.a libnetcdf.la libnetcdf_c++.a libnetcdf_c++.la pkgconfig

What goes wrong? How can I solve the problem?

Dear All
Can any body tell me what option is required to complie netcdf to be compatible with yambo on power6 machines?
I Used following to bulid yambo:
./configure --build=powerpc-ibm FC=xlf90_r F77=xlf_r CC=xlc_r CPP=cpp FCFLAGS="-O2 -q64 -qstrict -qarch=pwr6 -qtune=pwr6 -qmaxmem=-1 -qsuffix=f=f" CFLAGS="-q64" UFFLAGS="-q64 -O0" --with-p2y="4.0" --with-iotk=/u/kazempou/espresso-4.0.5/iotk

Do I use same options for buliding netcdf?

Thanks a lot

Dear Ali,

I would say that the only important issue is that netcdf and yambo have to be compiled with the same compiler,
using the same FCFLAGS and CFLAGS could be important.


I don't know what you mean with:

But the configuration dosn't find the path /usr/local/include and /usr/local/lib

Be sure that you have the required permission to access the /usr/local directories, but you should have it.
Please post your complete config.log file, so we can try to help you.

Cheers,

Daniele

Dear Daniele
I send both config.log for yambo and netcdf. I configure netcdf same as yambo , but netcdf faces error.

Dear Ali,
I'm not sure if it is the problem: looking at the log file you have an error in the netcdf linking because of the different -q64 option:

Code: Select all

configure:12999: mpxlf90 -c -I/u/kazempou/NETCDF/include -O2 -q64 -qstrict -qarch=pwr6 -qtune=pwr6 -qmaxmem=-1 -qsuffix=f=f   conftest.f >&5
"conftest.f", line 2.5: 1514-267 (S) The current program unit has a different setting for the -q64 option than was specified in the module netcdf.  Unexpected errors may result.

Now, you are linking Yambo to the netcdf contained in /u/kazempou/NETCDF/include, while from the netcdf log file, it looks you have compiled
the netcdf libraries with the same flag of yambo in /u/kazempou/netcdf-4.0.1

Please check if there is some inconsistencies.


Cheers,

Daniele
