Hi,

> installed on  /Users/george/tmp/gopenmpi, now I download netcdf 4.1.3
> and installed it with the following commands,
> 
> ./configure FC=/Users/george/tmp/gopenmpi/bin/mpif90 
> CC=/Users/george/tmp/gopenmpi/bin/mpicc 
> CXX=/Users/george/tmp/gopenmpi/bin/mpicxx CFLAGS=-m64 CXXFLAGS=-m64 
> FFLAGS=-m64 FCFLAGS=-m64 F90=/Users/george/tmp/gopenmpi/bin/mpif90 
> -prefix=/usr/local_parallel -enable-netcdf-4
> 
> The config.log is attached.

> Then I typed make |&tee make.res, it seems successful, make.res is

I think you need to include CPPFLAGS="-DpgiFortran" in the environment 
variables before running the configure script, because the cfortran.h include 
file used for representing
how the Fortran compiler calls the C compiler does not include a test for the 
"mpif90"
compiler, which uses the same conventions as the pgi f90 compiler.

An alternative solution would be to use the new netCDF 4.2 release to compile 
and install
just the C library.  Then you would use the netCDF-Fortran 4.2 or 4.4-beta1 
release to 
install the Fortran library, telling it where the C library is.  The netCDF-4.2 
Fortran
still uses the cfortran.h definitions and so requires the 
CPPFLAGS="-DpgiFortran" 
definitions when you are building the C libraries, but if you try the 4.4-beta1 
netCDF 
Fortran library, it doesn't need cfortran.h or the CPPFLAGS definition.
