[MITgcm-support] Re: compiling MITgcm

[Kelvin Richards]

Ed,

1) Solaris: the problem is indeed with our version of g77 (the 
'helloworld' test failed)

2) Altix: A little more detail (sorry for my inadequate description earlier)

I'm not sure how I check this, but I used CVS yesterday to download the 
latest version using "cvs co MITgcm"

I am using  a modified version of "linux_ia64_efc+mpi_altix" (see 
attached) where I have change the "LIBS", "INCLUDES" and "INCLUDEDIRS" 
lines.

in ...../exp5/include I have typed

"./genmake2 -mods=../code -of ../linux_ia64_efc+mpi_altix"

(I had to cp'ed the genmake2 file to the " include" directory)

"make depend" (see attached file make_depend_out.txt)

"make" (see attached make_out.txt)

See attached files. There is "echo: No match" at the end of 
make_depend_out.txt (which I have ignored)

On the first run through of make I got a string of messages

"efc: Warning: The Intel Fortran driver is now named ifort."

which I have suppressed with "-quiet"

The second run through with make is in the attached file. Because of the 
above warning I did try replacing the INCLUDE and INCLUDEDIRS to point 
to /opt/intel/ifort8/...... but that made no difference. I did find 
libPEPCF90 but only under efc7, not ifort8.

Cheers
Kelvin
