Netcdf-Fortran Installation -CC not executable

I am trying to install netcdf module for fortran. I am following steps from this link http://albeniz.eng.uci.edu/software/WRFCMAQ/NetCDF_installation_for_C_and_Fortran_libraries-HPC.pdf

I am getting error:

If you really want to install netcdf from source, you will need to troubleshoot the error:

configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables

Some possible reasons for the error are

• compiler or linker improperly installed

• an incompatible linker elsewhere on your PATH

• the filesystem on which the target directory resides mounted with the noexec option

However the Ubuntu "universe" repository already contains pre-built packages for both the C/C++ (libnetcdf-dev) and Fortran (libnetcdff-dev) netcdf ABIs. So if your real goal is just to build FSM2 with netcdf support from the github repo, all you need to do is:

• enable the universe repository if you have not already done so - see for example How do I enable the "Universe" repository?

• install the libnetcdff-dev package (which will install the C/C++ dev and runtime packages as dependencies)

   sudo apt update && sudo apt install libnetcdff-dev
  

• modify the FSM2 package's compil_nc.sh script to set the module include and library paths to those used by the Ubuntu package:

   $ diff compil_nc.sh.orig compil_nc.sh
   43,44c43,44
   < $FC -O3 -c -I/usr/lib64/gfortran/modules FSM2_temp.f90
   < $FC -o FSM2 FSM2_temp.o -L/usr/lib64 -lnetcdff
   ---
   > $FC -O3 -c -I/usr/include FSM2_temp.f90
   > $FC -o FSM2 FSM2_temp.o -L/usr/lib/x86_64 -lnetcdff
