It looks like you have installed 32-bit versions of netcdf and using 64-bit version of MPICH2.<br>
Uninstall the existing version of MPICH2 and install the 32-bit version (mpich2-1.2.1p1-win-ia32.msi) and let us know if it works.<br>

Subject: Re: [mpich-discuss] Linking problem (underscore prefix)<br>
<br>
<br>
Hi<br>
<br>
<br>
Thanks for creating the bug report. Hope that will be fixed soon.<br>
<br>
<br>
Until then, do you guys have any suggestions, that I could try out ? I have parallel netcdf library built on Windows ( using gcc and gfortran while building MPICH2 and parallel netcdf ). Now while linking with my application built with Intel compiler, as discussed before, there is unresolved external symbol errors. ( prefix appended to the parallel netcdf symbols).<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
I tried using the objcopy tool to remove those prefixes from the library using:<br>
<br>
<br>
$objcopy --remove-leading-char libpnetcdf.lib libpnetcdf.lib<br>
<br>
<br>
It then removed all those underscore prefix from the symbols, but then while linking with the application, it gave the following error:<br>
--------<br>
libpnetcdf.lib(dim.o) : fatal error LNK1112: module machine type 'X86' conflicts with target machine type 'x64'<br>
-----<br>
<br>
<br>
I am working on Windows Server 2008 R2, Enterprise Edition. Please let me know if you have any ideas/suggestions that I could try out.<br>
<br>
<br>
Thanks & Regards,<br>
Kunal<br>

Hi Kunal,<br>
<br>
Thanks for informing us the problem. There are bugs in Fortran77 binding<br>
configure tests that prevent one from using windows version of ifort on<br>
cygwin, namely these tests hardwire ".o" as object file extension instead<br>
of using the portable OBJEXT (same for EXEEXT). I created a bug report for<br>
this problem...<br>
