Compiling WRF 2.0.3.1 on Altix Using Intel Compiler 8.* (posted
04/19/05)
Problem: When compiling on
Altix using some version of the Intel 8.* compiler, two errors
may occur. One is a complaint about rsl_socket, and the other
may be at the loading stage.
Solution: rsl_socket is not
needed, and rsl_socket.o can be removed from external/RSL/RSL/makefile.core.
Also add -lcprts
to the loader flag.
Fix for retaining correct skin temp over seaice (posted 03/14/05)
Problem: Using recent Nam/Eta
data as input to WRF real-time runs in winter when frozen lakes
are present, correct landuse and skin temperature may be lost
during pre-processing.
Solution: Download the modified module_initialize_real.F.fix
to WRFV2/dyn_em/ directory, module_soil_pre.F.fix
to WRFV2/share/ directory, and Registry.EM
to Registry/ directory. Remove the .fix suffix, and recompile.
This needs to work together with a
fix in SI.
Compiling and Running WRF 2.0.3 on SGI IRIX 64 (posted 12/16/04)
Problem: OpenMP option was
errornously included in SGI MPI/RSL option, which may cause the
code to run significantly slower.
Solution: Comment out the OpenMP
option in configure.wrf, or in arch/configure.defaults for SGI
O2K DM IRIX64 DM-Parallel section.
Compiling WRF 2.0.3 on HP-UX (posted 12/16/04)
Problem: The ERROR_TEST macro
near the beginning of the file frame/module_tiles.F expands to
code that exceeds column 132.
Solution: Edit the file, and
remove ' "set_tiles:",' in line 15.
Error When Using Binary I/O (posted 12/09/04)
Problem: When using native
binary I/O format (io_form_* set to 1 in the namelist),
the time-independent meta data was not correctly input from a
dataset being read, causing the run to abort with an error message
complaining of a size mismatch between the domain size in the
dataset and the size specified in the namelist. The problem does
not affect other I/O format options (such as netCDF). (Note, the
supported post-processing tools do not yet support binary I/O.)
Solution: download a modified
routine, io_int.F90,
and replace the one in directory external/io_int/. Type 'clean
-a', and recompile.
Compiling WRF 2.0.3 Using Intel Compiler (posted 11/17/04)
Problem: An important compilation
flag is missing from the WRF tar file downloaded before Novenber
17, 2004. This could result in incorrect results.
Solution: download the latest
tar file, or add -mp to FCBASEOPTS
Compiling WRF 2.0.3 on NCAR IBM bluesky
Problem: The OpenMP compile
option on NCAR's IBM (bluesky) is not working.
Solution: Use MPI option, and
wait IBM to correct compiler bugs.
Compiling WRF 2.0.x on a Linux computer using PGI compiler version
3.x
Problem: The compiler appears
to have trouble with some 'equivalence' statements in module phys/module_ra_gfdl.F,
and the compile log shows errors like 'Conflicting
equivalence between t4 and table 3'.
Solution: download a modified
version of module_ra_gfdleta.F
for 2.0.3 and recompile.
