If you haven't already obtained the grib_api package, get it from the OpenIFS ftp site. The userid for ftp is 'openifs'. If you need the password, please email: openifs-support@ecmwf.int. Please note that currently we require a signed license before password access can be granted to the ftp site, though grib_api is freely available from the ECMWF website.
