[MITgcm-support] Executable fails, message: Trace/BPT trap: 5

[Rogan, Nicholas]

Hi Martin,

Thanks for getting back to me.  I had been able to genmake : make depend : make
And then the error Trace/BPT trap: 5 popped up.  With some assistance from another member of the list we established that there were a few relics of previous netcdf installs hanging around the system and MITgcm was consistently looking at the wrong one.  We solved this by setting the DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH to the required folder containing the relevant netcdf install and it seems to be working fine.

Thanks a lot for your offer of assistance.  Hope your modelling goes well in the future!!

Nick Rogan
