Greetings, I'm running the Debian package of OpenMPI in a chroot (with /proc mounted properly), and orte_init is failing as follows:
$ uptime 12:51:55 up 12 days, 21:30, 0 users, load average: 0.00, 0.00, 0.00 $ orterun -np 1 uptime [new-host-3:18250] [0,0,0] ORTE_ERROR_LOG: Error in file runtime/orte_init_stage1.c at line 312 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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_pls_base_select failed --> Returned value -1 instead of ORTE_SUCCESS -------------------------------------------------------------------------- [new-host-3:18250] [0,0,0] ORTE_ERROR_LOG: Error in file runtime/orte_system_init.c at line 42 [new-host-3:18250] [0,0,0] ORTE_ERROR_LOG: Error in file runtime/orte_init.c at line 52 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Open RTE was unable to initialize properly. The error occured while attempting to orte_init(). Returned value -1 instead of ORTE_SUCCESS. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Note running with -v produces no more output than this. Running orted in the background doesn't seem to help. What could be wrong? Does orterun not run in a chroot environment? What more can I do to investigate further?
