Hi, I sucessfully build and installed OpenMPI on a Debian machine running Sarge.
> uname -a> Linux karush 2.6.11-1-686-smp #1 SMP Mon Jun 20 20:18:45 MDT 2005 i686 GNU/Linux
As I am not root, I installed OpenMPI into my home to ~/bin/OpenMPI. I added ..../OpenMPI/bin to my PATH and ..../OpenMPI/lib to my LD_LIBRARY_PATH. Unfortunately ompi_info failed, complaining that it cannot find some libraries that are obviously installed in ..../OpenMPI/lib/openmpi . Although all installation manuals I found only require ..../OpenMPI/lib to be added to LD_LIBRARY_PATH, I tried adding the subdirectory ..../lib/openmpi to LD_LIBRARY_PATH as well. The result is that now the libraries seem to be found but ompi_info still complains about the libraries to have "invalid ELF header" (see attached output of ompi_info). Is there anything that I have to configure additionally to make it run? Unfortunately I am not familiar with libtool's load mechanism for .la libs. Thanks for any help in advance.
