Re: symbol table problem

Hi Walter,

Thanks for providing the additional information. I've been puzzling over this error message myself, and your information below was very useful.

I'm not sure if you said earlier what version of NCL you have, but it looks like you might be running V6.1.2, which was compiled with gcc/gfortran V4.6.0 on a MacOS 10.6 system.

Long story short: you have an older gcc than what we built NCL with. You need to have gcc V4.6 or later installed on your system. I'm hoping you already have this, since I noticed you have gfortran V4.6.2.

To see if you already have a newer gcc on your system, you can start by looking in the same directory as your gfortran:

  which gfortran

For example, if the above reports "/usr/local/bin/gfortran", then type:

/usr/local/bin/gcc --version

If the above indicates that you do have "gcc" and that it is version 4.6.2, then try typing this:

nm /usr/local/lib/libgcc_s.1.dylib | grep ___emutls_get_address

to see if you get a line like:

000000000000fd90 T ___emutls_get_address

If you do, then I believe you simply need to tell "ncl" to look in /usr/local/lib before it looks in /usr/lib, in order to get the right "libgcc_s.1.dylib. You can do this with the DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable, or, you can try making sure that /usr/local/bin is on your search path before "/usr/bin". The search path route is the better one. You generally don't want to mess with DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH.

Here's how you might set your PATH if you go that route, or your DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH if you go that route.

Setting PATH from csh/tcsh:

setenv PATH /usr/local/bin:$PATH

Setting PATH from bash/ksh:

export PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH

If you decide to try the DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH, then the instructions are similar:

Setting DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH from csh/tcsh:

setenv DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH /usr/local/lib

or, if DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH is already set to something:

setenv DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH /usr/local/lib:$DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH

Setting DYLIB_LIBRARY_PATH from bash/sh/ksh:

export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib

or, if DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH is already set to something:

export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib:$DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH

The above commands can be put in your .bash_profile or .tcshrc or .cshrc (or similar) file, depending on what file you use to set up your environment.

If you don't have "gcc" in the same directory as "gfortran", then you will need to download and install it (using the same version and path as your gfortran). You should be able to find a new "gcc" from the same place that you got gfortran.

If the above works, or if you find another solution, please post it back to ncl-talk (and ncl-install if you are a member) so other people can benefit from the answer.

Thanks,

--Mary
