Deleting the install as you describe is a VERY bad idea. As I explained elsewhere, the system generally comes with an installation. Blowing things away can destabilize other areas of the system unless you are (a) very careful, and (b) very lucky Just stay away from the system directories, pleas

Nope - make uninstall will not clean everything out, which is one reason we don't recommend putting things in a system directory On Apr 6, 2014, at 8:44 AM, Kamal wrote: > Hi Hamid, > > So I can uninstall just by typing > > ' make uninstall ' right ? > > what does ' make -j2 ' do ? > > T

What version of OMPI are you attempting to install? Also, using /usr/local as your prefix is a VERY, VERY BAD idea. Most OS distributions come with a (typically old) version of OMPI installed in the system area. Overlaying that with another version can easily lead to the errors you show. You s
