[OMPI users] A problem with 'mpiexec -launch-agent'

[Zhang Linbo]

Hi,

I'm new to OpenMPI and have encountered a problem with mpiexec.

Since I need to set up the execution environment for OpenMPI programs
on the execution nodes, I use the following command line to launch an
OMPI program:

   mpiexec -launch-agent /some_path/myscript 

The problem is: the above command works fine if I invoke 'mpiexec'
without an absolute path just like above (assuming the PATH variable
is properly set), but if I prepend an absolute path to 'mpiexec', e.g.:

   /OMPI_dir/bin/mpiexec -launch-agent /some_path/myscript 

then I get the following error message:

bash: -c: line 0: syntax error near unexpected token `('
bash: -c: line 0: ` PATH=/OMPI_dir/bin:$PATH ; export PATH ; 
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/OMPI_dir/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH ; export LD_LIBRARY_PATH 
; /some_path/myscript /OMPI_dir/bin/(null) --daemonize -mca ess env -mca 
orte_ess_jobid 1978662912 -mca orte_ess_vpid 1 -mca orte_ess_num_procs 2 
--hnp-uri "1978662912.0;tcp://180.0.14.12:54844;tcp://190.0.14.12:54844"'


I'd like to know what causes the above problem and how should I deal 
with it.

I want to use absolute pathname of mpiexec to avoid possible inteferences
with other MPI installations. Thanks in advance.

[OMPI users] Problem with compilation : statically linked applications

[HeeJin Kim]

Dear all,

I had built openmpi-1.4.2 with:
configure CC=icc CXX=icpc F77=ifort FC=ifort
--prefix=/home/biduri/program/openmpi --enable-mpi-threads --enable-static

And I have a problem during compilation of q-chem software which uses
openmpi.
