I am using SUSE 10.0 and PGI 6.1. The steps for the installation wew followed as discribed in the documentation. However, i can not get past the following errors.

linux:/local/CODE # pgf90 -dryrun x.f
Reading rcfile /usr/pgi/linux86/6.1/bin/pgf90rc
Reading rcfile /usr/pgi/linux86/6.1/bin/pgftnrc
pgf90-Error-file with unknown suffix ignored: x.f
linux:/local/CODE # pgf90 -fast -v -o CALMETND CALMETND.F
pgf90-Warning-Unknown switch: -fast
pgf90-Warning-Unknown switch: -v
pgf90-Warning-Unknown switch: -o
pgf90-Error-file with unknown suffix ignored: CALMETND
pgf90-Error-file with unknown suffix ignored: CALMETND.F
linux:/local/CODE #

the shell uses bash. any suggestions??

Hi dharman,

Your install most likely failed for some reason. Can you look at your install log or try installing again? Note that if you are on a 64-bit system and the 32-bit GCC compatability libraries are not installed, the PGI 32-bit compilers won’t be installed.

Since my last post I have run three fresh Linux and compiler installs to ensure no artifacts were left over. I have learned there is a “makelocalrc” that must be run. Here is the latest message i get and have not found any reference to error:

dohm-linux:/local/CalmetTest/CODE # pgf90 -fast -v -o CALMETND CALMETND.F
pgf90-Error-Required tool as was not found
pgf90… looked for as at /usr/pgi/linux86-64/6.1/bin/as
pgf90-Error-Required tool ld was not found
pgf90… looked for ld at /usr/pgi/linux86-64/6.1/bin/ld

i have tried this on both 32- and 64-bit systems and received the same results.

Here is and info line received from the makelocalrc:

dohm-linux:/usr/pgi/linux86-64/6.1/bin # makelocalrc -x /usr/pgi/linux86-64/6.1
WARNING: g77 not found; this may cause problems during use

Hi dharman,

It appears that you’ve gotten things to install correctly but need to set your your configuration to append “$PATH” your PATH environment variable.

Examples:

   set up your configuration.
   setenv PGI /usr/pgi
   set path=($PGI/linux86/6.1/bin $path)      ! for 32-bit by default
   set path=($PGI/linux86-64/6.1/bin $path)   ! for 64-bit by default
   setenv LM_LICENSE_FILE $PGI/license.dat

   or in bash

   export PGI=/usr/pgi
   export PATH=$PGI/linux86/6.1/bin:$PATH     ! for 32-bit
   export PATH=$PGI/linux86-64/6.1/bin:$PATH  ! for 64-bit
   export LM_LICENSE_FILE=$PGI/license.dat

The makelocalrc warning only means that you may have problems interoperating with g77 and using the “-g77libs” flag since you do not have g77 installed or the installer can’t find your installation.

The PATH and MANPATH were as you indicated. I added the license path and here is what came back:

dohm-linux:/local/CalmetTest/CODE # pgf90 -fast -o CALMETND CALMETND.F
pgf90-linux86-64: LICENSE MANAGER PROBLEM: your evaluation period has expired; please contact PGI
or an authorized PGI distributor

This evaluation installation was less than 24 hours ago.

Hi dharman,

If it’s ok with you, instead of trying to figure out why your eval license expired, I’ll hit the easy button and send you a demo license via email. Give me a few minutes to get your email address and generate the license, but hopefully we can get you going here shortly.
