4 years ago Hi,
Those messages look like either the environment variable NCARG_ROOT is not set, or it is not pointing in the right place. I don't know how/why and upgrade of the OS would cause this -- I've not seen this problem before.
Do you happen to know where NCL is currently installed on your system -- its obviously in your PATH. Perhaps try the command "which ncl", and that should return a path like "/.../something/bin/ncl". If so, then cd into the "/.../something" part and see if there is a directory "lib" and under that a directory "ncarg". If so, the "/.../something" part is the value of your NCARG_ROOT env-variable.
Hope that helps... Rick

Computing environment
- OS: Mac
- OS version: MacOS 10.15 - Catalina
- NCL Version: 6.3.0
- It was working prior to the update to Catalina
Additional context After updating my computer (big mistake) NCL no longer works. Do you have any known fixes to this issue or is there a new release coming that supports Catalina?
