[VictorEijkhout]

The loopopt option does not exist with the intel compiler.

@VictorEijkhout I worry Silo's configure script is too old.

Can you provide the full command-line you used to configure and/or attach config.log file here?

[VictorEijkhout]

Configuring as:
./configure --prefix=/work2/00434/eijkhout/silo/installation-silo-4.11.1-stampede3-intel24 --libdir=/work2/00434/eijkhout/silo/installation-silo-4.11.1-stampede3-intel24/lib
 .. with CC=icx CXX=icpx FC=ifx

where

Using compilers for mode :
 .. CC=icx
    where icx=/scratch/projects/compilers/intel24.2/oneapi/compiler/2024.2/bin/icx
    and CFLAGS=
 .. CXX=icpx
    where icpx=/scratch/projects/compilers/intel24.2/oneapi/compiler/2024.2/bin/icpx
    and CXXFLAGS=
 .. FC=ifx
    where ifx=/scratch/projects/compilers/intel24.2/oneapi/compiler/2024.2/bin/ifx
    and FFLAGS=

config.log attached
silo.log

Ok, so this ref suggests the problem is in configure itself. I will try to see if I can suggest a patch to configure.

[markcmiller86]

Also, can you try using ifort for the fortran compiler instead of ifx?

ifort no problem.
