Is there anyone who has compiled WRF in Ubuntu 24.04. I am having trouble with netcdf-Fortran. I get an error using the library in the compilation page but not when I download netcdf-Fortran from unidata. WRF will not compile complaint that one of the compilation tests fails . Any help

I have gotten it to work, what versions of all the libraries are you using?
 
I tried these libraries as suggested on the WRF users page on compiling WRF.
mpich-3.0.4
netcdf-c-4.7.2
netcdf-fortran-4.5.2
Jasper-1.900.1
libpng-1.2.50
zlib-1.2.11
When these did not work I went to the unidatta website and download and got

netcdf-c-4.9.2.zip
netcdf-fortran-4.6.1.zip

I can install the netcdf-c** but not netcdf-fortran-*

HERE are my system specs:

do you have any error logs?
 
hey fotieno, I recently installed it in ubuntu 22.04, the problem is with the compiler gcc13.2.0. I used gcc 9.5.0 and it worked, you need to configure everything again after changing your version.

i used netcdf-fortran 4.5.2
wget https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-fortran/archive/v4.5.2.tar.gz

Also make sure your environment is set correctly, I refered to this article and it helped me alot.
