Hi guys,

I tried to compile the WRF using "./compile em_real >& log.compile && ls -ls main/*.exe" command and got an error massage as "ls: cannot access 'main/*.exe': No such file or directory".

Next, I checked the log.compile file and the following error was in the log.compile file
---> Problems building executables, look for errors in the build log <---

Then I tried to find the first Error inside the log.compile file and I couldn't find the Error.[/b][/b][/b]

Please help me

Hi,
Can you do the following steps:
  • ./clean -a
  • setenv J "-j 1"
(or if you're using bash, export J="-j 1")
  • ./configure
  • ./compile em_real >& log.compile

and then send the new log.compile file and configure.wrf? Thanks!
 
Dear Kwerner,

Thank you for quick respond and sorry for my delay. As you mentioned, I re ran the programme as,

./clean -a
export J="-j 1"
./configure
./compile em_real >& log.compile

But no executables in the main directory this time also. I have attached new log.compile file and configure.wrf file to check and get your comments.

Thanks for sending those. If you haven't already, can you go through this page from the beginning, to ensure that your environment is set-up correctly and that your compilers and libraries are all compatible with each other? Although you likely already have your libraries built, I would suggest rebuilding them, based on the instructions in this guide. This will help to ensure better success. Let me know what happens after that!
 
I rebuilt the libraries and performed tests which are mentioned in the https://www2.mmm.ucar.edu/wrf/OnLineTutorial/compilation_tutorial.php. Then I was able to successfully compile the WRF programme with the relevant executables without any problem.

Thank you for your comments.
 
The culprit was Ubuntu.. I reinstalled Ubuntu, reinstalled library and recompiled without error. I'll run the test model now. Thanks everyone for the support.
