Hi Jason,

I'm keeping this dicussion on-list so it goes in the archives.

Is this a cross-compiling environment?

This problem causes the rest of the failures.

Look in the directory

  /home/users/slemons/cmake_test/CMakeFiles/CompilerIdFortran

for the file

  CMakeFortranCompilerId.F

Try building it with your compiler:

  /opt/cray/xt-asyncpe/3.4.4/bin/ftn CMakeFortranCompilerId.F

Do you get an executable?  If so, what is the output of running it?
What is the output of the command "strings" on it?  Try the same tests
with pgf95 because it should work with that compiler too.

If you don't specify a compiler CMake starts searching for known
compiler executable names in unspecified order.

It is finding the compiler you specify.  From your log:

  -- The Fortran compiler identification is unknown
  -- Check for working Fortran compiler: /opt/cray/xt-asyncpe/3.4.4/bin/ftn

It is trying to use ftn.

Set "FC=/opt/cray/xt-asyncpe/3.4.4/bin/ftn" in your environment before
running CMake.  This is not much different from setting the variable
CMAKE_Fortran_COMPILER with -D though.
