How is UPP installed?

Getting Started

I downloaded UPPV11.0.0 with the command "git clone -b upp_v11.0.0 https://github.com/NOAA-EMC/UPP". The file is 44MB. There is no configure script in the parent directory. When I download the gz file on "https://codeload.github.com/NOAA-EMC/UPP/tar.gz/refs/tags/upp_v11.0.0" the file size is 1MB. There is no configure script.

Please help. How does one install. I am used to UPPV4.

Hello!

Sorry for the late response!  I'll check with the development team and get back to you ASAP!

Thanks for waiting.  You may need to use cmake with source and build directories instead of ./configure, if that is how you were using it.  It looks like there were some large changes to how UPP is built between 4.0 and the current 11.0 build.  If you can give that a try and let me know how it goes, that would be great!

Hello Shawn,

Thank you for having looked at my problem.

I tried to install UPPV11.0.0 with the following command

cmake -S /home/zmumba/UPP-upp_v11.0.0 -B . CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/home/zmumba/UPP-upp_v11.0.0

The message I got is below. I do have bacio-1.3.tar but I have not been able to install it

I will appreciate if you have a cmake command which has worked for UPPV11.0.0

Thank you

Zilore

Zilore, 
  
   What system are you running or building the UPP, and what kind of the model or code are using (running, building)? Is it UFS-weather model, SRW App, MRW App?... Are you using any HPC-stack or NCEP libs to build the modules required for the UPP? If yes, which version?

Thank you, and your responses will help to assist you in a most efficient way.
Natalie.

Hello,

I use UPP for graphing WRF-ARW output using grads. I have UPPV4.0 installed and NCEPlibs (I suppose version 1.4.0). UPP is working very well. When I saw that the UPP version has gone as much as V11 I thought of installing the new version. I use gnu compilers on ubuntu 18.04.

UPPv4.1 was the last version to be officially supported and tested for WRF. However, v11.0 "should" still be able to process WRF data. It just has not been tested by community developers and we cannot guarantee it will work. I hope you are able to get it to build with hpc-stack.
