Sean,

| Congratulations! You have successfully installed the netCDF |
| Fortran libraries.                                          |
|                                                             |
| You can use script "nf-config" to find out the relevant     |
| compiler options to build your application. Enter           |
|                                                             |
|     nf-config --help                                        |
|                                                             |
| for additional information.                                 |
|                                                             |
| CAUTION:                                                    |
|                                                             |
| If you have not already run "make check", then we strongly  |
| recommend you do so. It does not take very long.            |
|                                                             |
| Before using netCDF to store important data, test your      |
| build with "make check".                                    |
|                                                             |
| NetCDF is tested nightly on many platforms at Unidata       |
| but your platform is probably different in some ways.       |
|                                                             |
| If any tests fail, please see the netCDF web site:          |
| http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf/                |
|                                                             |
| NetCDF is developed and maintained at the Unidata Program   |
| Center. Unidata provides a broad array of data and software |
| tools for use in geoscience education and research.         |

Toolkit Installation starting at 2018? 05? 24? ??? 11:01:36 CST

Note: If your system is CentOS linux, you may need -fPIC compilation flag.
If that is the case you better quit here (using Ctrl-c) and re-start
installation with additional arguments -cc_flags "-fPIC" and/or
-cpp_flags "-fPIC" and -fc_flags "-fPIC" if you have not done so.
You may type bin/INSTALL -h to see notes on how to add additional
compilation flags
The default Toolkit LINUX installation for this machine is 64 bit. Other
available Toolkit LINUX installation mode is 32 bit Mode

Installing in  (64 bit) mode...

My env: OS: Ubuntu: 14.04
            gcc/g++/gfortran:  v5.5.0
            cmake: 3.11.2

the source code was downloaded from your provided website, and I run the ./BuildIt, after a long time compiling, installation failed.  How should I solve this problem?

You need a C shell. Somehow that error message does not make it obvious.
gcc-4.8 works with the VIIRS libs that we distribute, so I would build with that instead of gcc-5.

$ apt install tcsh
$ apt install gfortran-4.8
$ apt install libexpat1-dev
$ apt install bison
$ apt install flex
$ apt install libx11-dev
$ export CC=gcc-4.8
$ export CXX=g++-4.8
$ export FC=gfortran-4.8
