I am trying to use pywinter to produce intermediate file formats for MPAS-A. I am able to install this package to a virtual environment of mine on Casper, but when I try to import the package via:
import pywinter.winter
This fails with the following error message:
ImportError: /glade/u/home/doughert/miniconda3/envs/pangeo3/lib/python3.9/site-packages/KreatE_inter_m_f.cpython-39-x86_64-linux-gnu.so: undefined symbol: _intel_fast_memset
Does anyone know how to fix this? Thanks!
Katelyn FitzGerald (May 07 2024 at 03:46):You may need to unload your compiler modules so that the package builds using the compilers in your conda env (there's some Fortran in pywinter that's making things a bit complicated). There might be a smoother way to do this, but it works at least.
When reinstalling you'll probably also need to tell pip not to use the cache: pip install pywinter --no-cache-dir
Erin Dougherty (May 08 2024 at 14:56):Thanks, Katelyn! This worked great, so thanks for the help!

Daniel Howard (May 22 2024 at 20:01):Just adding that I'll be adding this solution to this WRF/MPAS forum request as well. https://forum.mmm.ucar.edu/threads/how-to-use-pywinter-for-intermediate-files.17087/
Similarly, a request came in on this question to rchelp.ucar.edu and appreciate the insight here.
