mpirun noticed that job rank 1 with PID 25074 on node wins02 exited
on signal 15 (Terminated).
2 additional processes aborted (not shown)
This could be one of several issues:
- An outright bad parameter to MPI_COMM_WORLD (e.g., a bogus
communicator)
- A subtly-bad parameter to MPI_COMM_WORLD (e.g., the parameters all
passed the first-order check [e.g., bozo checks for NULL], but then
something later in the process determined that it was an invalid value)
- Something else altogether
Can you make a small example that shows this same problem and send it
to the list?
