[netcdfgroup] Failing to configure netcdf-4.3.1.1

I have a ROCKS cluster running Centos 5.

I am building my applications with the prefix of /share/apps.  My ultimate
goal is to build GMT which requires netcdf with hdf5.


I have installed hdf5-1.8.12 and zlig-1.2.8

I am trying to install netcdf-4.3.1.1

I used the following to try to configure netcdf

CFLAGS=-I/share/apps/include CPPFLAGS=-I/share/apps/include
LDFLAGS=-L/share/apps/lib ./configure --prefix=/share/apps

*The compilation fails with*

checking for library containing deflate... none required
checking for floor in -lm... yes
checking for library containing H5Fflush... -lhdf5
checking for library containing H5DSis_scale... -lhdf5_hl
checking /share/apps/include/hdf5.h usability... no
checking /share/apps/include/hdf5.h presence... no
checking for /share/apps/include/hdf5.h... no
configure: error: Compiling a test with HDF5 failed.  Either hdf5.h cannot
be found, or config.log should be checked for other reason.

*hdf5.h is in /share/apps/include*
