BINGO! Both of my problems are gone with this configure flag and the make ends successfully, also with the --enable-shared configure flag. After installing (with the shared .so libraries), I also get working mpi-compilers. Note: when I do the above with the stable release 1.2.1, I get again the following when compiling code: $ mpicc mycode.c gcc: dummy: No such file or directory gcc: ranlib: No such file or directory But the good news is that the latter problem disappears with the nightly built openmpi-1.3a1r14639. Thus I'm looking forward to the next release that will support my AlphaServers out-of-the-box. Although I'm not at all an MPI expert, but if tests are needed to help openmpi work on AlphaServers, then I am willing to help with tests on my systems. By the way: does OpenMPI support running MPI on a variety of architectures? Can I run MPI code parallel on Intel-PCs, HP/Itaniums and AlphaServers (all running Linux/CentOS) ? Hence, is this kind of cross-architecture supported in OpenMPI? Regards, Rob. --------------------------------- Sick sense of humor? Visit Yahoo! TV's Comedy with an Edge to see what's on, when.
