Re: [OMPI users] Building openmpi with PGI 11.4: won't find torque??

It's probably looking for the torque lib in lib instead of lib64. There should be a configure option to tell it --with-tm-libdir or something like that - check "configure -h" On May 2, 2011, at 6:22 PM, Jim Kusznir wrote: > Hi all: > > I'm trying to build openmpi 1.4.3 against PGI 11.4 on my

I believe I was having this same issue until I switched to the 2.5.x series of torque. I will have to check my notes which are at work, but it is something to try at least. It seems this should not matter. Maybe try setting the ld_library_path or adding /opt/torque/lib. I am not familiar with t

Hi Ralph Thank You for doing the fix. Do you perhaps also have an idea what is going on when i try to start xterm (or probably an other X application) on a remote host? In this case it is not enough to specify the '--leave-session-attached' option. These calls won't open any xterms mpirun -np

Hi Ralph I rebuilt open MPI 1.4.2 with the debug option on both chefli and squid_0. The results are interesting! I wrote a small HelloMPI app which basically calls usleep for a pause of 5 seconds. Now calling it as i did before, no MPI errors appear anymore, only the display problems: jody@che
