next red hat problem
 

OK so i solved my first problem now i have another, everything is installed and working fine, to a point when i run starlink i get the following message once it starts to compile and everything: Linking single precision sequential executable "rotate"...

f77: unrecognized option `-N3' f77: unrecognized option `-N26' f77: unrecognized option `-N15' f771: Unrecognized option `-f' ######################################

WARNING: Command execution error. Please check screen output for details

starin.f compile error.

Exiting starlink.

as far as i can tell absoft seems to be working fine and so does everything else, my environmentals seem ok too at least i cant see any problems with them. any ideas? cheers joel

ABSOFT=/usr/absoft ; export ABSOFT

PATH=:$ABSOFT/bin:$PATH:.

It is important that $Absoft comes before $PATH, otherwise try "which f77" and you see that the gnucompiler is used.

Hmmm, these were exactly the same kind of problems I faced when I first installed STAR-CD on Red Hat. I renamed the original f77 compiler and in its place I created a symbolic link to Absoft's F90 instead.

Q: Could you get STARWATCH and starwdaemon to work properly?
