Trouble with post-processing program - Abaqus 6.3 under Solaris 7

Trouble with post-processing program - Abaqus 6.3 under Solaris 7

Trouble with post-processing program - Abaqus 6.3 under Solaris 7

(OP)
I'm having trouble getting a Fortran 90 post-processing program to run correctly. It isn't my own and doesn't use 'abaqus_param.inc'; but uses Fortran 90 declarations of the type "(KIND=)". The computer is a Sun running Solaris 7 and Abaqus/standard 6.3.

The post-processing program calls the Abaqus subroutines 'initpf', 'dbrnu' and then 'dbfile'. It fails to open the existing .fil file on unit 8 but instead creates an empty 'fort.8'. There is, I think, a mis-match between the data types used by abaqus 6.3 on this machine and the data types used in the post-processing program.

Can anybody in the know tell me, for abaqus 6.3, on this installation:
* how many bytes would be used to represent a real?
* how many bytes would be used to represent an integer?

Thanks in advance.
MRG
