problem with -lpgc

Hello,

I installed pdf90 compiler on RocksCluster 3.3 (based on Red Hat 9 distribution). I also have intel fortran compiler and GNU compilers installed on the same machine. The installation finished successfully and I updated the license file and I can execute:

>pgf90 -V
pgf90 3.2-3
Copyright 1989-2000, The Portland Group, Inc. All Rights Reserved.
pgf90-warning-No files to process

but once I try compiling elementary program (which compiles with intel and GNU compilers fine - simple one-file-program) I get the following:

> pgf90 -v test2.f   << simple program

It complains about library libpgc.a which is not in
$PGI/linux86/lib but it is in:
$PGI/linux86/lib-glibc-20 (lib-glibc-211) (lib-glibc-212)

I don’t know why there is no libpgc.a in the lib directory. Is there something wrong with my installation?

thanks

Hi Michal,

Release 3.2-3 is very old and not supported on RH 9. For a table of the linux versions that are supported, see http://www.pgroup.com/support/install.htm#release_info

If you are on subscription, please download and install version 4.1 or later. Otherwise, please contact sales@pgroup.com for more information on updgradng you compilers.

Thanks,
Mat
