Linking error "ambiguous" when adding external library

[Anders_S_1]

Hi,

I have moved from Fortran Cluster Edition 2018_2 to 2019_0 and got a linkage error

"ambiguous", when I try to add an external library. I also use VS 2017.

The linker output from the command line linking is attached.

What to do to resolve the problem?

Best regards

The ambiguity is that you have an option "/C:\....lib". Remove the leading "/", because the compiler/linker assumes that that is the start of a compiler/linker option, whereas you seem to mean the full name of a library.

I do not know what options may lead to the ambiguity itself, but it is clear that the slash is a mistake.
