Hello,
I can see that Patrick posted my same error on:
http://www.open-mpi.org/community/lists/devel/2006/12/1230.php
Can I please find out the status? I have a simple test case which
demonstrates the --prefix is not working on mpirun. I build into
/usr/local/openmpi-1.1.3
and it works. However, if I copy the files, remove the
/usr/local/openmpi-1.1.3/lib
and try to point to my new directory of /tmp/openmpi-1.1.3, it fails.
prompt <154> /usr/local/openmpi-1.1.3/bin/mpirun -n 1 --host em64t hostname
em64t
prompt <155> cp -r /usr/local/openmpi-1.1.3 /tmp
prompt <156> /tmp/openmpi-1.1.3/bin/mpirun -n 1 --host em64t hostname
em64t
# As ROOT:

It looks like orte_init failed for some reason; your parallel process is
likely to abort. There are many reasons that a parallel process can
fail during orte_init; some of which are due to configuration or
environment problems. This failure appears to be an internal failure;
here's some additional information (which may only be relevant to an
Open MPI developer):
orte_sds_base_select failed
--> Returned value -13 instead of ORTE_SUCCESS

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Open RTE was unable to initialize properly. The error occured while
attempting to orte_init(). Returned value -13 instead of ORTE_SUCCESS.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
The man page implies that --prefix would work. I know my example is
silly. The real case
involves going over a cluster, but the above is the simpliest case I
could create.
From the man page:
--prefix <dir>
Prefix directory that will be used to set the
PATH and
LD_LIBRARY_PATH on the remote node before invoking
Open MPI
or the target process. See the "Remote Execution"
section,
below.
BTW - I am trying to migrate from LAM to OpenMPI. The switch was
very painless. Thanks for the good work.
Regards,
Joe
