Issues when compiling and installing WRF

[bcastro97]

Hi everyone,

I was following the instructions to compile and install the libraries required to build WRF using Intel/ifort: Full WRF and WPS Installation Example (Intel). All was working perfect, but when I configure WRF I got an error messague.

Is important to say that I had done all the previous System Environment Tests and any of them fail. The results of all of these tests was according to the expected.

Also, I read another posts about the topic and follow the recomendations that they said but the error still being there. Before the instalation process I wrote the following into the terminal to define the environment variables:

export PATH=.:/home/bcastro/WRF/libs/netcdf/bin:/home/bcastro/WRF/libs/bin:${PATH}
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/bcastro/WRF/libs/lib:/home/bcastro/WRF/libs/netcdf/lib:/home/bcastro/WRF/libs/grib2/lib
export JASPERLIB=/home/bcastro/WRF/libs/grib2/lib
export JASPERINC=/home/bcastro/WRF/libs/grib2/include
export NETCDF=/home/bcastro/WRF/libs/netcdf

export DIR=/home/bcastro/WRF/libs
export F77=ifort
export F90=ifort
export FFLAGS='-O3 -xHost -ip -no-prec-div -static-intel'
export LDFLAGS="-L/home/bcastro/WRF/libs/lib -L/home/bcastro/WRF/libs/netcdf/lib -L/home/bcastro/WRF/libs/grib2/lib"
export CPPFLAGS="-I/home/bcastro/WRF/libs/include -I/home/bcastro/WRF/libs/netcdf/include -I/home/bcastro/WRF/libs/grib2/include"

Is important to say that I did not export the following environment variables, because I got an error message when I tried to build the libraries with them:

export CC=icc
export CXX=icpc
export CFLAGS='-O3 -xHost -ip -no-prec-div -static-intel'
export CXXFLAGS='-O3 -xHost -ip -no-prec-div -static-intel'
export FC=ifort
export CPP='icc -E'
export CXXCPP='icpc -E'

Then I Install all the libraries successfully (mpich, zlib, HDF5, NetCDF-c, netcdf-fortran, libpng and jasper), and wrote the following lines according to the instructions of the tutorial:

git clone --recurse-submodule https://github.com/wrf-model/WRF.git
cd WRF
./configure

Then I enter the option 15 of the Linux x86_64 options and basic nesting. But I got this error messague:

Can you help me with this Issue? Please let me know if there is any additional information I may need to add.

Thanks for any advice in advance.
