Hi everyone,

I am having problem with OpenIFS installation(tried with both  oifs38r1v04 and oifs40r1v2.tar.gz ). I have following configuration:

OIFS_COMP=gnu
OIFS_BUILD=noopt

OIFS_GRIB_DIR=/shared/apps/ecCodes/2.7.3-foss-2018b
OIFS_LAPACK_LIB=/shared/apps/ScaLAPACK/2.0.2-gompi-2018b-OpenBLAS-0.3.1/lib
OIFS_GRIB_LIB="-L$OIFS_GRIB_DIR/lib -leccodes_f90 -leccodes”


I did use ecCodes instead of grib_api, and followed the installation guide, but I am stuck very soon after I did run following command.

 fcm make -f oifs.cfg

with following error. 

[init] make # 2019-04-12 10:32:14Z
[init] make config-parse # 2019-04-12 10:32:14Z
[info] config-file=/home/user/oifs38r1v04/make/oifs.cfg

[info] config-file= - /home/user/oifs38r1v04/make/cfg/oifs-depend.cfg
[FAIL] make config-parse # 0.1s
[FAIL] make # 0.1s

[FAIL] config-file= - /home/user/oifs38r1v04/make/cfg/oifs-depend.cfg:21


Looks to me that I am missing something obvious or making very simple mistake, but I just can't find it.

I did try to comment out this two option inside   /home/user/oifs38r1v04/make/cfg/oifs-depend.cfg

build.prop{no-dep.f.module,class} = grib_api ifcore
build.prop{no-dep.include,class} = mpif.h

But then I am getting some other errors as well. 


Any help or tips are very much appreciated.


Thanks!

    Hi Saerda,

    Don't use OpenIFS 38r1, that's a very old version and was not setup to work with ecCodes. It would require code changes to enable it to work. Please only use the latest version 40r1v2.

    To compile 40r1v2 with ecCodes, you'll need to correctly set the names of the grib libraries which by default are set to use grib_api. Please see this Forum post (OpenIFS & eccodes), at the very bottom, which explains how to do this.

    If you still have problems, then please copy the build output as you have done above and we'll help.

    Best regards,   Glenn
