Re: [AMBER] problem building Amber 16 with Intel compilers

Thank you! This gave me some idea of what to look for. We normally load
the intel compiler via an environment module, and looking at that
module, I discovered that it sets CC, FC etc. to their full paths.

So instead of loading the Intel module, I just added the ifort/icc
directory to $PATH, and added the location of the Intel libraries to
$LD_LIBRARY_PATH. i.e. the minimum required for the configure. After
this the build chugged along nicely and I had no further problems.

Thanks again,

Susan
