Hi Gus,

Yes, between vixen and dahser I was doing the test as user tsakai,
not as root. But the reason I wanted to do this test as root is
to show that it fails as regular user (generating pipe system
call failed error), whereas as root it would succeed, as it did
on Friday. The ami has not changed. The last change on the ami
was last Tuesday. As such I don't understand this inconsistent
behavior. I have lots of notes from previous sessions and I
consulted different successful session logs to replicate what I
saw Friday, but with no success.
Having spent days and not getting anywhere, I decided to take a
different approach. I instantiated a linux ami that was built by
Amazon, which feels like centos/fedora-based. I downloaded gcc
and c++, plus openMPI 1.4.3. After I got openMPI running, I
created an account for user tsakai, uploaded my public key, re-logged
in as user tsakai, and ran the same test. Surprisingly (or not?) it
generated the same result. I.e., I cannot run the same mpirun
command when there is a remote instance involved, but on itself
mpirun runs fine. So, I am feeling that this has to be an ssh
authentication problem. I looked at man page for ssh and ssh_config
and cannot figure out what I am doing wrong. I put in "LogLevel
DEBUG3" line and it generated lots of lines, in which I found a
line:
debug1: Authentication succeeded (publickey).
Then I see a bunch of lines that look like:
debug3: Ignored env XXXXXXX
and mpirun hangs. Here is the session log:

Do you see anything strange?
One final question: On ssh man page, it mentions a few environmental
varialbles. SSH_ASKPASS, SSH_AUTH_SOCK, SSH_CONNECTION, etc. Do
any of these matter as far as openMPI is concerned?
Thank you, Gus.

Tena
