Fortran runtime error

[pramod_tp]

Hi,





When trying to compile a fortran code in a linux server (intel itanium architecture with SuSe linux and intel 9.0 compiler) I have been getting the folowing error.





libc.so.6.1 20000000003F9850 Unknown Unknown Unknown








The source of the error seems to be the non-inclusion of libc.so.6.1 . However, I have checked to make sure the location this has been included in the PATH variable. Working with different compilers also has not given any answers.









Any directions to take on this would be appreciated.

The PATH environment variable has no influence on finding dynamic libraries. Beyond that, I don't find your post entirely clear.

The error message seems to suggest that the library was somehow not located or that it was missing.
My first action was to make sure that the library was infact present on the system.
What I havent been able to figure out is the reason why this error is coming up during run time.

If you're having a problem with your application finding the correct version of this library at run time, check the LD_LIBRARY_PATH setting. However, the text of your message said the problem was at compile time, when the gcc library paths shown by 'gcc -print-search-dirs' would govern. Your message looks somewhat as if the libc actually is present, but you are making a bad reference into it, but it is hard to imagine that you don't have additional relevant information which you are not disclosing. ifort assumes the presence of a working gcc.
I haven't had any experience with SuSE-ia64, but I understand that the original SuSE 9 versions had similar bugs in binutils to what Red Hat EL4 has. With SuSE, you have the advantage of YOU updates, should you choose to use them, if your organization doesn't prevent it by firewall. Failing that, you should be able to grab update .rpms from a mirror site.
You could save a lot of confusion by usual methods, such as quoting the exact command which produces a failure, telling about your kernel, gcc, binutils and ifort versions, in case someone familiar with them is reading. Otherwise, you're better off submitting an issue on your premier.intel.com account, which will insist you answer some of these questions.
