Re: Plots not showing any axis

Ipshita,

Whenever I see reference to the "share" directory regarding an NCL installation, then I assume you installed NCL via a LINUX package installer, like "yum" or "apt-get".

If so, I believe it puts things in /usr/bin, /usr/lib, /usr/include, and /usr/share/ncarg

The only two environment variables you should need, then, are:

  export NCARG_ROOT=/usr
  export NCARG_NCARG=/usr/share/ncarg

Setting NCARG_BIN, NCARG_MAN, etc, should not be necessary, as Dave indicated.
