[MINC-users] "Not a netCDF file" error

[Lisa F. Akiyama]

Hi Vladimir,

Thank you for your reply.
Yes, as you've suspected, my minc files were Minc2 files.
Since there isn't a newer version of the precompiled binaries for Cygwin
released on the website, I am trying to install minc-2.0.18.
However, after running the make command, I got the following error:
*make [2]: *** [voxeltoworld.exe] Error1*
*make [2]: leaving directory ''/usr/local/minc-2.0.18'*
*make [1]: *** [all-recursive] Error1*
*make [1]: leaving directory ''/usr/local/minc-2.0.18'*
*make: *** [all] Error2*
*
*
Any tips on how to resolve this problem?

Thanks.


Best,
Lisa
