In other words it is not forking child processes.
Can you explain that a little more -- do you mean that it only creates 1 testmpi process, or that it creates 10 testmpi processes and they each think that they're the only process in MPI_COMM_WORLD? > I checked in to the error log in apache regarding the same.

Can you try updating to the latest release? The source code file referred to in the above message indicates that you might be using a fairly old version. -- Jeff Squyres jsquy...@cisco.com For corporate legal information go to: http://www.cisco.com/web/about/doing_business/legal/cri/
