Yes, netcdf and netcdf-perl are both installed.
NetCDF.pm is located under/netcdf-perl-1.2/src/perl/NetCDF.pm

Matt,
The log file suggests  that ncgen was never called to create the netCDF
file, so the decoder doesn't have a destination file to write to. ie
ncopen: filename "./00021707_metar.nc": No such file or directory
Look in the current dir for the file, if it not there try:
% ncgen -o 00021707_metar.nc metar.cdl
Usually the decoder checks for ncgen before it even starts to run.  Do you
have write permission in the metar dir?
If ncgen created 00021707_metar.nc, then try:
% ncdump 00021707_metar.nc | more
Try running the metar2nc again.  Also what type of machine/OS and version
of perl are you running?
Robb...
The log file is attached
