ungrib crashes with intel compiler

[alainF]

Hello,
I try to rebuild my system with the Intel compiler.
I passed all the tests of the tutorial about compiling WRF.
I have successfully built WRF and WPS, and all the required libraries such as netcdf, jasper...
geogrid.exe runs fine,
But ungrib.exe crashes when it has output all the PFILE:*** it had to do.
The message is :

I have compiled it in serial mode and you will find attached the log of the compiler and also namelist.wps.
I have tried to compile in dmpar mode and obtained same result.
Thank you for your help.

Hi,
Is it possible that you only pointed to the grib-specific libraries when building WPS, and you are no longer pointing to the right paths? If you aren't sure, can you send your configure.wps file, and please issue the following commands, and send the .txt files:

echo $JASPER_INC >& jasperinc.txt

echo $JASPER_LIB >& jasperlib.txt

echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH >& ld.txt

Hello,
Thanks a lot for your reply.
Concerning Jasper variables, I thought that the names were JASPERINC and JASPERLIB, not JASPER_INC and JASPER_LIB. In doubt, I have set JASPER_LIB and JASPER_INC to JASPERLIB and JASPERINC. I ran ungrib.exe with the same result than before.
You will find the requested files. I have also included the copy of $PATH.

I have succeeded !
Actually, I had to type the following commands before runtime :

ulimit -s unlimited
export OMP_STACKSIZE=4G (although I don't know if this one is really important)

I knew the trick for wrf.exe, but I did not know that it would be important for running ungrib.exe too.
I think that this is due to the Intel compiler.
But also I wonder if the large size of the input grib files are also responsible for that ( 42 x 550 MB, and each file named FILE:*** generated by ungrib has a size of 818 MB (it is quite large !)

That is great news! I'm glad to hear you found a solution, and I suppose the large size of the files were the culprit. As for your message regarding the variables "JASPERLIB" and "JASPERINC," you're absolutely correct, and they should be set, without the underscore. I apologize for the confusion I caused!

The question is why is these commands needed for intel and not for gnu?

ulimit -s unlimited
export OMP_STACKSIZE=4G (although I don't know if this one is really important)

And why don't they work all the time?
