Hello
I am configuring and compiling WRF V4.4 for the first time, I am currently on Ubuntu 22.04.5, when I try to compile it, it does nothing and then it just mark error creating the executables.
I've had previous errors with the netcdf path, I am guessing it has something to do with it.

If anyone could help I would appreciate it.

I attach the log.compile file.

Here it is.
I did it and it still present the same error, I even think there are more I don't know why.
Thanks for your answer.

That is fine, we want to see all the errors, not just the last ones as often earlier errors propagate to subsequent ones.

Can you paste the output of :
mpif90 -show

I have a suspicion that the underlying cause is the enabling of LTO (link time optimization) within the MPI wrapper.
 
Here:

Code: 
gfortran -O2 -ffile-prefix-map=/build/mpich-0xgrG5/mpich-4.0=. -flto=auto -ffat-lto-objects -flto=auto -ffat-lto-objects -fstack-protector-strong -fallow-invalid-boz -fallow-argument-mismatch -Wl,-Bsymbolic-functions -flto=auto -ffat-lto-objects -flto=auto -Wl,-z,relro -I/usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/mpich -I/usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/mpich -L/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu -lmpichfort -lmpich

Please add -fno-lto to the DM_FC line in your stanza or configure.wrf

The issue is the configuration of MPI you are using is specifying LTO (-flto=auto -ffat-lto-objects ) but when we do archive creation we use ar and ranlib which may not support gfortran/gcc LTO :

Any other solution?

if you could open a new issue, since it may be a different setup on your computer. Include all your log files that you have available for your WRF build please
