netcdf does not compile with mpich or openmpi

[massonseb]

I am using macOS 12.6.1 with ARM64 (Apple M1 Pro) and I am trying to compile netcdf.

port install netcdf +gcc12 works fine.

but netcdf +gcc12 +openmpi or netcdf +gcc12 +mpich fail to configure:

--->  Configuring netcdf
Error: Failed to configure netcdf: consult /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_macports_release_tarballs_ports_science_netcdf/netcdf/work/build/CMakeFiles/CMakeError.log
Error: Failed to configure netcdf: configure failure: command execution failed

Error: Follow https://guide.macports.org/#project.tickets if you believe there is a bug.
Error: Processing of port netcdf failed

In both cases, the error message in the main.log file is :

:info:configure -- Could NOT find MPI_CXX (missing: MPI_CXX_WORKS)

I attach the 2 log files (netcdf_openmpi.log and netcdf_mpich.log)

Thank you for your help,

Sébastien

cmake is not finding the MPI compilers (e.g. mpicc-openmpi-mp) etc...

In my case, selecting a macports MPI environments allowed cmake to find the compilers correctly. Just follow the instructions of the notes of the MPI port you have installed. Here is an example with openmpi-default:

# Get the instruction: this varies depending on your installed port
port notes openmpi-default

# Follow the instructions: set the wrappers as default
sudo port select --set mpi openmpi-mp-fortran

You might alternatively play with cmake variables, e.g. add a -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH in the configure.args-append instruction in the Portfile, but I didn't experiment with that.
