Calling Metis API using Fortran and C

Question

I wrote the following code for calling Metis using Fortran and C, but still getting segmentation fault. The target of the code is to do partition for the input file chanelElements.

module metis_vars
 use iso_c_binding

! Variables
integer              :: ia, ic
integer(kind=c_int)  :: ne, nn
integer(kind=c_int)  :: ncommon, objval
integer(kind=c_int)  :: nparts
integer(kind=c_int), allocatable, dimension(:) :: eptr, eind
integer(kind=c_int), allocatable, dimension(:) :: epart, npart
type(c_ptr)          :: vwgt, vsize, tpwgts
integer              :: opts(0:40)

interface

   subroutine METIS_PartMeshDual(ne,nn,eptr,eind,vwgt,vsize,ncommon,nparts,tpwgts,opts, & 
   objval,epart,npart)bind(C, name="METIS_PartMeshDual")

   !subroutine METIS_PartMeshDual(ne,nn,eptr,eind,vwgt,vsize,nparts,tpwgts,opts,objval,epart,npart) &
   !  bind(C, name="METIS_PartMeshDual")

        ! use binding module
        use iso_c_binding
        ! declare variables with C++ types semantics
        integer(kind=c_int)               :: ne, nn, ncommon, objval, nparts
        integer(kind=c_int), dimension(*) :: eptr, eind
        integer(kind=c_int), dimension(*) :: epart, npart
        type(c_ptr), value                :: vwgt, vsize, tpwgts
        integer(kind=c_int)               :: opts(0:40)
        !    printf('Hi');

    end subroutine METIS_PartMeshDual

end interface

end module

and the main program is

program METIS_PART_1

    use iso_c_binding
    use metis_vars

    implicit none

    open(unit=15, file="chanelData.dat")

    open(unit=1, file='channelElements.mesh')

    read(1,*), ne
    !ne = 2000
    nn = ne * 8


   allocate( eptr(ne+1), eind(8*ne) )
   allocate( epart(ne), npart(nn) )

    do ic=1,ne
        ia = (ic-1) * 8 + 1
        read(1,*), eind(ia:ia+7)
        write(15,*), eind(ia:ia+7)
  !       print*, eind(ia:ia+7)
        eptr(ic) = ia
  !      write(15,*),' ia:   ', ia
    enddo
   close(15)
   close(1)
    nparts = 4
    ncommon = 2


     vwgt   = c_null_ptr
     vsize  = c_null_ptr
     tpwgts = c_null_ptr
     !opts = c_null_ptr

   opts = 0
   opts(0) = 1
   opts(7) = 1
   ! opts(0)   = 1
   ! opts(7)   = 1
   print*, ' -----------------------'
    print*, ' ne:   ', ne
    print*, ' nn:   ', nn

    call METIS_PartMeshDual(ne,nn,eptr,eind,vwgt,vsize,ncommon,nparts,tpwgts, & 
     opts,objval,epart,npart)
  ! call METIS_PartMeshDual(ne,nn,eptr,eind,vwgt,vsize,nparts,tpwgts,opts,objval,& 
  ! epart,npart)

     print*, ' objval:   ', objval
  end program METIS_PART_1

I compile using and got error:
