gcc directory problem

Hi,

I have installed PGI compiler on my computer (with SUSE 10.2, 64bits), by two different ways :

  • by using the program of a server,
  • or by making a local installation

In both cases I have the same error when pgf90 call the linker. Lets take the
local program for example, the localrc file contains :

set LDSO=/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2;
set GCCDIR=/usr/lib64/gcc/x86_64-suse-linux/4.1.2;
set GCCINC=/usr/lib64/gcc/x86_64-suse-linux/4.1.2/include;
set G77DIR="";
set OEM_INFO=64-bit target on x86-64 Linux;
set NUMALIBS=-lnuma ;
set LOCALRC=YES;
set THROW=__THROW=;
set EXTENSION=__extension__=;
set COMPGLIBLFDIR=;
set COMPGCCINCDIR=include-gcc41;
set LC=$if(-Bstatic,-lgcc -lgcc_eh -lc -lgcc -lgcc_eh -lc, -lgcc -lc -lgcc);
# GLIBC version 2.5
# GCC version 4.1.2
set LOCALCOMPLIB=/usr/local/PGI/7.0-5/lib64;
export PGI=/usr/local/PGI;
# makelocalrc executed by root Mon Jul 9 18:11:28

All theses informations seems correct … But when I try to compile a program, I have the following error (I just use -# option to have the command line printed) :

/usr/local/PGI/linux86-64/7.0-5/bin/pgf90 -#     lett_min_1.o lect_ligne_3.o lect_entree_3.o coordrot_1.o invmat.o fctmu_1.o env_8.o  -o ../Exe/xenv

pgf90-Fatal-linker completed with exit code 1

make: *** [main] Erreur 2

Why does the compiler use the /usr/lib/gcc/i586-suse-linux/4.0.2/ directory (which does not exist) instead of the one written in the localrc file ???

To be sure that pgf90 read the localrc file, I tried change an other line, and I replaced : “set LOCALCOMPLIB=/usr/local/PGI/7.0-5/lib64” by “set LOCALCOMPLIB=TEMPORARY_CHECK”

And this change appears in the command line :

/usr/bin/ld /usr/lib64/crt1.o /usr/lib64/crti.o /usr/local/PGI/linux86-64/7.0-5/lib/trace_init.o /usr/lib/gcc/i586-suse-linux/4.0.2/crtbegin.o /usr/local/PGI/linux86-64/7.0-5/lib/f90main.o -m elf_x86_64 -dynamic-linker /lib/ld-linux.so.2 /usr/local/PGI/linux86-64/7.0-5/lib/pgi.ld -LTEMPORARY_CHECK -Lexport -LPGI=/usr/local/PGI -L/usr/local/PGI/linux86-64/7.0-5/lib -L/usr/lib64 -L/usr/lib/gcc/i586-suse-linux/4.0.2 -rpath TEMPORARY_CHECK export PGI=/usr/local/PGI -rpath /usr/local/PGI/linux86-64/7.0-5/lib lett_min_1.o lect_ligne_3.o lect_entree_3.o coordrot_1.o invmat.o fctmu_1.o env_8.o -o ../Exe/xenv -lpgf90 -lpgf90_rpm1 -lpgf902 -lpgf90rtl -lpgftnrtl -lnspgc -lpgc -lrt -lpthread -lm -lgcc -lc -lgcc /usr/lib/gcc/i586-suse-linux/4.0.2/crtend.o /usr/lib64/crtn.o

So pgf90 read the localrc file. But why pgf90 use another gcc directory ??

If you have any idea, I would be grateful !

Hi Alain,

Can you please post the output of the following commands:

  1. gcc -v hello.c
  2. gcc -v -m32 hello.c
  3. pgf77 -tp k8-64 -dryrun hello.f
  4. pgf77 -tp k8-32 -dryrun hello.f
  5. pgf77 -v hello.f
  6. pgf77 -tp k8-64 -v hello.f
  7. pgf77 -tp k8-32 -v hello.f

Where “hello.f” is:

   print *,"hello "
      end

and “hello.c” is

#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
 printf(" hello\n");
}

Thanks,
Mat

Hi Mat,

when using the following command :
pgf77 -tp k8-64 -dryrun hello.f
I saw that PGI was reading files located in my home directory :
.mypgf77rc and .mypgf90rc

These files are 1 years old, and should have been created by the network administrator, who installed the previous version of PGI.
The wrong gcc directory (/usr/lib/gcc/i586-suse-linux/4.0.2) was defined in these files.

I have renamed these files, and now the compiler works properly !

I thank you for your help !

Alain.
