Help with Intel Fortran on OS X

[Teresa_de_Jesús_C_]

Hello everyone!

I am new in Intel Parallel Studio, and Trying to install and tune the 2015 version in a MacBook pro running Yosemite OS, for now the trial version.

The dmg package is already installed and the environmental program executed. How ever running a simple program the following printout appears:

ifort: error #10401: error running 'xcrun -find ld'

I saw in the forums but not reports on such an error.

What is missing in my installation? Some advices?

In advance I thank your answer.

Best,

Tere

Our apologies for the delayed reply.

I have never experienced this error nor was I familiar with xcrun. This is described as a Mac OS X* developer tool used for locating and running development tools via the command-line The error you experience suggests ifort leverages xcrun to locate the linker (ld) but the linker was not found.

You can run xcrun manually as follows:

$ which xcrun
/usr/bin/xcrun

$ xcrun -find ld
/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/bin/ld

One item to check is that Xcode 5.0 (or greater) is installed and that you also installed the command-line tools.

One resource I found on the Apple Developer Support site was an Xcode FAQ that includes this:

I've installed Xcode 4.3 or later. Where can I find the updated command line tools?

Xcode now provides an interface for downloading and installing the latest command line tools, such as Apple LLVM compiler and system headers. To install these tools, go to the Downloads tab within the Xcode Preferences menu and click "Install" next to the Command Line Tools entry.

I hope that helps!
