When I try to compile WRF, it stops withe the following . I have successfully installed all libraries. Whe I ECHO the environmental variable it shows where I installed both NETSDF and NETCDF FORTRAN. Can SOMEONE please SHOW ME WHAT AM DOING WRONG. My settings are attached
checking for perl5... no
checking for perl... found /usr/bin/perl (perl)

*****************************************************************************
No environment variable NETCDF set.
Stopping

I think you may have forgotten to attach the settings. If you haven't already, please follow the instructions here to make sure you've installed everything correctly and that the paths are set properly. If so, please attach the settings you mentioned. Thanks!
Thanks. I followed the instructions but it looks like they changed something in Ubuntu 20.04 that doesn’t work with the instructions. I had to try multiple combinations of netcdf, mpich, Zlib , Libpng and jasper. I went with the combination that worked. I’m now able to compile WRF

I can also confirm that Ubuntu 20.04 has been having problems with certain libraries and gnu for wrf. Newer libraries may not work on it and users might have to be forced to use older libraries.
