[Mitgcm-support] Re: SunOS5.7

Mark,

I haven't seen that before, looks like something inside the wrapper, 
that is, Chris should know where this problem might stem from:
the S/R memsync is found in eesupp/src/memsync.F and this message can 
only mean that this routine is not linked into your compile directory 
and was subsequently not compiled. I don't know why. Do you use CVS now? 
If not I would strongly recommend doing so. It sounds like you have 
confused the genmake/Makefile-process somehow (maybe the cpp warnings 
point to the problem?) Remove everything (including the Makefile etc.) 
from your build/compile directory and start again and the problem should 
go away.

Good luck and let me know if it works,

Martin

PS: I use either g77 or ifc (intel fortran compiler), both work fine on 
both redhat and suse linux. I don't know enough about linux to give you 
advice on what distribution to use. At MIT virtually everybody uses 
redhat, here in Germany Suse is much more popular (Suse is German 
company). Your friends should feel honored to run the MITgcm on their 
machines, so you'll have some convincing to do (o:
