Dear All,

I am trying to install Grib-API library,but after I write the "make" command in the terminal, I get the following error:

/home/maryam/lib/jasper-1.900.1//lib/libjasper.a: error adding symbols: Bad value
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make[2]: *** [libgrib_api.la] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/maryam/lib/src/grib_api-1.23.0-Source/src'
make[1]: *** [all] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/maryam/lib/src/grib_api-1.23.0-Source/src'

Any help would be appreciated,

Do you have the development version of libjasper installed?

My jasper file name is jasper -1.900.1. Which file is the development version of it?

Thanks,

If you don't tell us which distro you are using, it is difficult to tell you the name of packages. In Debian it is libjasper-dev. I recommend that you ask your system administrator for help. Your problem is more a Linux issue, not FLEXPART (grib_api is not maintained by us).

How can I know it's ditro?
I have another question. I am installing FLEXPART on intel which supports C++ and ifort. Is it compatible with FLEXPART or it has to have gfortran?

Thanks,

If you have no Linux administration knowledge, you should really ask for local support!
We will help you with FLEXPART, but it will be difficult from remote, and also too time-consuming to solve your Linux problems.

I have another question. I am installing FLEXPART on intel which supports C++ and ifort. Is it compatible with FLEXPART or it has to have gfortran?

You can use ifort (also, ifort code is usually faster than gfortran-compiled one), you just have to adapt the makefile accordingly. Also it is advisable to compile grib_api with the same compiler.

Dear all，

I have met the same error with the ticket reporter, and my version of jasper is libjasper 1.900.1,

my distro is Centos 7.3.

Could you give me some help? I've been stuck in this problem for a long time.
Hope to get your help.
Many thanks!

Dear juliezhu, as explained above, this is probably not directly related to FLEXPART. Either you don't have the right lib installed, or you don't reference it properly in your makefile. Could you please try to get help from your system administrator or another Linux specialist? If you can't get the issue solved, please post

1. your makefile
2. exact error message

If you can solve it, please also post so that we can close the ticket.

Thank you.
