(RESOLVED) ./ungrib.exe: Error while loading shared libraries

[Hossan]

Hello,
I am trying to give a demo run by following same instruction as mentioned here: http://www2.mmm.ucar.edu/wrf/OnLineTutorial/compilation_tutorial.php
WPS and WRF V4 setup was successful as I have performed all the compatibility tests successfully as mentioned in the tutorial.

But when I tried to implement ./ungrib.exe, the following error occurred
./ungrib.exe: error while loading shared libraries: libpng12.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Could you please help me ? How to create libpng12.so.0?

Thanks

I think you may need to add the directory containing the 'libpng12.so.0' file to your LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable.

Assuming that the file $DIR/grib2/lib/libpng12.so.0 exists, you could try:

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$DIR/grib2/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

Thank you. That works.

Thanks a lot
