Dear Priti,

Check where libimf.so is on your system:

locate libimf.so

This should be in the lib directory where the intel compiler is installed.
You can then either make sure this directory is in your path by manually
adding it or make sure that you source the Intel setup script in your
.bashrc or .cshrc as specified in the ifort manual. E.g.:

source /opt/intel/fce/9.0/bin/ifortvars.sh

If the problem still happens after this then it is likely to be some
incompatibility between the operating system and the intel compilers. I
would contact Intel support about the issue.

Another option you could try is to compile AMBER statically:

cd $AMBERHOME/src
./configure -p4 -static ifort
make clean
make

This should make the problem go away...

All the best
Ross
